Cookie Swap is coming up!!!

Hey ladies, don't forget the cookie swap is coming up December 5th, don't forget to bake those cookies!  For anyone who is interested and hasn't gotten the invitation, you can send me a pm with your e-mail address and I will send it out.

At one point we'd mentioned maybe doing an ornament swap too, but is anyone else feeling overwhelmed?  I was thinking of scrapping the ornament swap idea and just sticking with cookies.

Opinions?

Re: Cookie Swap is coming up!!!

  • Definitely stick with the cookies. 

    I'm so happy you live so close to Scuffletown.  I've got class that morning and that night I have a 14 year old's birthday party to run!

    hey if you want to get a bite for dinner between the cookie swap and the birthday party maybe we could pick something up in 5 forks.  I'll have some snack foods around the house for the swap, but nothing to constitute a whole meal. I literally live like a mile tops from the dance barn.

  • If there is time, I'd definitely not mind that!
  • I'm so excited!!! Like I said in the invite, DH and I will be amking almond biscottis but only 3 dozen. We are going to try another flaovr biscotti for the other 3 dozen. Right now DH is on Chocolate Mint, but I'm trying to get him to try Gingerbread too haha. We shall see.
  • Sounds good, don't forget to bring recipes for everyone!  My house is still a disaster!  I hope any of you who are perfectionists don't expect the same from me!  This past weekend was a blur, and this week I have something going on EVERY night.

  • What is the guest count currently?

    Also your e-mail said we're welcome to bring a friend.  I've ran it by a friend of mine (who is a phenomenal baker) and I'm waiting to hear back from her.

    Yeah that'd be great if you could bring a friend!  The more people we have, the more variety you'll come home with!  

    There are 7 of us right now, and 2 maybes.  8-10 would be perfect, but I've been to ones with up to 30 people!

  • Okay I don't have access to FB from work so I can't ask you this on FB.  I just want to make sure that I am only making 6 dozen cookies no matter how many people come.  I literally have no time to do any more than that.  I bought just enough stuff to make my 6 dozen and that's it.   Big Smile

    Yes no matter how many people come, you only make 6 dozen.

    And here's a tip since you won't have extra ingredients.  Once you mix up your dough, divide it into 6 equal parts, then just make sure you get a dozen out of each.

  • Oh and because I'm psychotic, I thought I'd add that I also made cherry turnover cookies.  I can't figure out how to add that to my RSVP on the evite.

    I made them last night, I just hope they don't get soggy before Sat.
