Want to do a holiday cookie exchange?

[Guest guest]

My mother was an avid holiday baker and made plateful after plateful

of all

manner of goodies to share with family, friends and neighbors. Our

back

porch was full of boxes of fudge, painted marzipan, cookies, and

even hard

candies. I am not as ambitious as she was, but I do a fare bit of

holiday

baking.

 

I know it isn't practical to do an actual one, but perhaps we could

do a cyber

exchange of our favorite holiday cookie recipes; ones we generally

make every

year as a tradition. Maybe also sharing where we got the recipe and

some

memory associated with it, etc?

Good idea P_T, I was going to suggest a Finger-Food Net Party for next week,

however I like your idea better. I already have a recipe/tradition/memory

ready. When can we submit or will it be on a certain day?

 

Peace,

Shawn

 

Oh shoot P_T, that stuffed mushrooms recipe will be coming shortly, I almost

forgot. I just gotta get it.

Sounds fun! I'll share a candy recipe though...I

prefer candy making to cookie baking.

 

Warmly,

Allison

Wonderful. I like your idea, too. We should do that after the cookie

recipe

exchange, especially since some of us might be having New Years

gatherings where finger food recipes will come in handy. I enjoy

finding new

recipes like that to prepare.

 

As far as the cookie recipe exchange, how about we make a week of it,

and

begin on this coming monday. That will give everyone time to type it

up or

gather the recipes they plan to share. I think I will place all of

the recipes I'm bringing in

one post... but I am not sure yet. *lol*

Woohoo! Perfect timing. My Mother is going up this weekend to Missouri to

visit her Mom and siblings. She is coming back on Monday. Hopefully, she

will drop by my place with a care package (crosses fingers and knocks on

wood). My Grandma uses real popped popcorn in zip-lock bags to protect the

goodies in the box. That's the best tasting lining I've ever eaten.

Last night I fixed some cookies (well it's kinda a cookie/sandwich thingy)

to go up there with Moms. Hopefully they enjoy them.

 

Cheers,

Shawn
