Hi Robin,

I had my 5th Annual Cookie Exchange on Friday Dec. 10 from 6 -10 pm. I had 9 baker's including myself attend and one lady that sent her cookies but was unable to attend. I also had 2 non baker's attend (my son's friends) that came to help me out.

The cookies as always were delicious with a lovely selection. We had Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies, Linzer Cookies, Caramel Cashew Thumbprints, Mint Thumbprints, Toffee Stuffed Snickerdoodles, Cut Out Sugar Cookies, Eggnog Logs, and Maple Drop Sugar Cookies and Almond Shorties

We had an appetizer buffet that everyone seemed to enjoy. We played 3 games , "Don't say Cookie game", "Canadian Christmas Trivia" and "I've Never..."

I had prizes for each game as well as a Door Prize (this year it was Robin's just released cook book), a prize for best festive dress and a prize for best packaged cookie. Every year it seems to get better and better and I am looking forward to my "6th Annual Cookie Exchange."

Thanks again Robin for all your ideas on your web site. I couldn't have done it without you!
