Two of the best things about the holidays are the parties and
getting together with friends! I love how creative my friends get each year with
their holiday parties and treats. Over the weekend, my family and I were invited
to a Cookie Exchange Christmas Party. It was so much fun! Everyone had to bring
a plate of a dozen *homemade cookies for the rest of the guest to try and be judged
on. We also had to bring five dozen more of our cookies wrapped/packaged so that
everyone could swap cookies and take a bunch home.
When it came time, everyone gathered around the table and started
trying all the different, yummy cookies. They all were labeled and a list of
ingredients was placed on the side of each plate. Let me tell you, the kids (and
most of the adults) went crazy at this part. We all had a pen and paper to mark
down which cookies we liked best and to list our top three. I didn’t come in first
but the fact we left with seven(!) dozen different kinds of cookies made up
for that.
I really think my friend did a great job hosting this fun, kid
friendly party. It also was a great alternative to the traditional Ugly Sweater
or White Elephant parties we are accustomed to.
