Item 223: Cookie Exchange

Entered by aruba on Wed Dec 17 17:32:17 2003:

Let's have another cookie exchange this year.  I propose Saturday, December
20th, 4PM (tea-time), at my place, which is 711 Duncan Street, Ann Arbor.

A cookie exchange is where everyone bakes a batch of his or her favorite
cookies, then brings them to a meeting of people who have done the same. 
Everyone takes home as many cookies as he or she brought, but they will have
a variety.

Who's in?
33 responses total.

Stupid diets.  :(

  Maybe you could organize some sort of holiday rice-cake exchange..  :-p

I had a lot of fun at last year's cookie exchange. But I have other 
plans this weekend :(

Greg, you're welcome to come and drink milk, if you'd like.

Oh - I forgot - I'll provide milk and eggnog.

(drat.  I wish I'd remembered this sooner...  dunno if I'll have time to
make anything this year, so I can't commit.)

(Mark, thanks for organizing this!)

re#5 I could give you my recipe for cannoli ;) It's quick and easy 
(although it does require some prep 24-48 hours in advance)

I would but I dont live near ann arbor :( sorry

#10 of 33 by scott on Wed Dec 17 22:49:14 2003:

Maybe...

#11 of 33 by kotr on Wed Dec 17 23:12:09 2003:

maybe what?

#12 of 33 by aruba on Thu Dec 18 15:04:43 2003:

Hmmm - no one's committed yet, other than me.  I'll be making my Mom's
butter cookies, shaped like various animals and inanimals.

#13 of 33 by carson on Thu Dec 18 15:20:57 2003:

(eskarina tells me that I've also committed to being there.  I guess 
I'll be bringing truffles, mini-peanut-kisses, and maybe some other 
varieties, depending on what I can accomplish over the next two 
evenings.)

darnit, I wish I still lived in A^2.  If anyone makes cookies, I 
recommend the Good Eats Chocolate Peppermint Pinewheels!  www.foodtv.com

Unfortunately, it's a low-carb diet, so a rice-cake exchange would be
nearly as bad.  Maybe a chili cook-off instead.  :)
  And thanks, Mark, but I'm not quite masochistic enough to place myself
in close proximity to a lot of cookies without allowing myself to eat at
least some of them...  and I'm not good at moderation.  :)  I'm mostly
just whining a bit.  As I understand it, whining is an important part of
diets.

#16 of 33 by carson on Thu Dec 18 19:05:24 2003:

(whining or winnowing?)

#17 of 33 by twenex on Thu Dec 18 19:11:17 2003:

I'd commit, but as I'm over 100 miles away with no chance of *not*
being over 1000 miles away in the time allotted, that would be unfair.

#18 of 33 by aruba on Thu Dec 18 21:44:27 2003:

All right!  Carson is coming.  Is Anna coming too?

#19 of 33 by carson on Thu Dec 18 23:48:01 2003:

(yes, I believe that she will be dragging me along.)  ;)

We had a nice intimate cookie exchange - carson and eskarina provided
chocolate truffles and Hershey Kisses cookies, and Carol, my roommate Paul,
and I provided butter cookies, milk, and eggnog.  We sat around and talked
for a couple of hours.  It was a nice time.
