Beat in eggs one at a time. Add Vanilla and Citrus Zests to the milk, then beat it into the sugar mixture alternating with flour mixture. With greased hands, form dough into 3 balls. It should be slightly sticky; if it too sticky to handle, knead in a little more flour by hand. Refrigerate for 30 min.
Heat oven to 350* degrees. Working with one ball at a time, pull off a handful of dough and roll it on a lightly floured surface into a rope about 1/3 " thick. Cut into 4 to6 inch lengths and tie a knot at the center of each. Place on ungreased cookie sheets about 1 inch apart .
