Cookie Exchange 2007



I've wanted to do a cookie exchange for a while now, and especially since we bought our house 4 years ago. But somehow, the holiday season came and went, and I never did it. This year I was determined to have one. I told people in the summer about it. As Halloween approached, some ladies at church began discussing holding one. I immediately offered my house up for one. Well, fast forward a month, and my cookie exchange took place on Saturday. It really was a lot of fun!


I have to say it was a lot of work, but it was worth it. 12 ladies ended up coming, and although many of them didn't know each other, they all came with a common purpose...COOKIES!


As a host, I didn't get to "enjoy" the party, but my enjoyment came in the faces of all my guests, who laughed a lot that afternoon!


I can't wait till next year's cookie exchange!
