Robin,
My annual exchange was held on Dec. 21st. I had 14 people participate. We had to make 14 dozen cookies with 1 of the dozen shared at the party. The other 13 had to be packaged pretty & ready to take.

We even had a surprise visitor this year – Santa & Mrs. Claus! Great photo op! I normally don’t have children at the party because I look at it as a special treat for the Moms, but with Santa & Mrs. Claus coming I had to let the children stay! They had a blast! You’ll see group photos of Santa & Mrs. Claus with the ‘bakers’ & then one with some of the children of the bakers.

Hope your holiday was warm, bright & full of yummy goodness,
