Cookie Swap!

I've had the idea for quite some time, and I've decided to bite the bullet and post an invitation on Facebook - I'm going to host a Christmas Cookie Swap!A friend organised one a few years ago, and when I re-read one of my Advent posts and saw it mentioned, I thought I just had to try it myself. So, if you are a local reader, consider yourself invited, and please email me for instructions! If you are not a local reader, I'm really sorry - I wish you could come too! I'll let you know how it goes, and perhaps you could let me know if you're doing anything similar?

Good luck - sorry can't join in although when I read the link and it said to bring 10 dozen cookies I think perhaps I am not so sorry!! Mighht a cookie recipe swap be an idea too perhaps? If your invitees bring some lovely biscuits they might be willing to share the recipes and then we could all join in?

Nice idea, Jane - I'll ask them to email the recipes and then they'll be easy to share.

I saw that on FB - sounds rather fun :)

BTW boys still love your ginger cookies - a firm family favourite now :)

Oh good for you! I am going to my cookie swap in a couple of weeks but I can't decide what to make. I loved it last year and the cookies I bought home were yum. We always attach the recipe to the bags.

I am going to start our Alsacian Christmas cookies soon, and they keep pretty well - can't I send some by post ?
