Cookie Exchange

Wow, have you even baked cookies for a cookie exchange? I just did last night, what a load of work. But the end result is kind of fun, you get to get a dozen of the cookies that the other people baked as well. The added advantage is that you get to taste everything before hand, so you will know if you ever what to make that cookie again. But then the downside is that your left with all these cookies to eat. Not exactly the best thing when you are trying to show the doctor that you are not really gaining a lot of weight around this very tricky holiday season. Oh well, it all comes off eventually right?

Maybe for you it will all come off eventually. Not all of us are luck and loose weight easily. I did a cookie exchange last year and I think a dozen of 12 different cookies was a bit too much. I was thinking of doing it next year but have people bring enough for every one to get 6 of all the different cookies. Just enought for me to taste and the teenager to finish off in one or two days.

I think 6 would be a better number as well. That way you don't end up with too many. That don't get eaten. Especially if you have a lot of people.
