Linda Falkenstein ~ writer & editor

I’m Linda Falkenstein, a writer and editor based in Madison, Wisconsin, and features editor and journalist at Isthmus. In 2024 I won the “Holiday Spirit” award in StartingBlock coworking space’s cookie contest with this recipe using sorghum instead of molasses and sprinkling some sanding sugar on top for that old holiday spirit. But seriously, these are amazing cookies and you could use molasses; don’t feel a need to go out and buy sorghum. They do, however, require a few eggs… dealbreaker?

I am a certified Wisconsin Master Naturalist circa 2017, although I am not up on my continuing education or my volunteer hours. However, once a Wisconsin Master Naturalist, always a Wisconsin Master Naturalist. Ask me about the Jordan Formation.
