Anyone doing them? We will probably do one again this year. We did one last year and everyone had a blast!
It was listed on the church calenadr though... and the men heard the word "cookie" and they wanted to come too. But we all had a blast - I took some undecorated sugar cookies and the kids hed fun with them. The adults all sat and assembled gift baskets for the shut-ins. It was a wonderful party.
We also had soup and sandwiches to feed the "workers" - then some people went around to deliver the gift baskets while the rest cleaned up.
I know this isn't the standard way to run a cookie exchange, but it was a lot of fun and the people who cannot get out due to age and infirmities felt so special to get the visit and their gift baskets! _________________ I live at the magnificent Mimosa Hill Chicken Retirement Village |

We do a cookie exchange at our annual Christmas party. Everybody brings 5 dozen of their favorite homemade cookies and quart sized zip lock bags with their name written or taped on them. We started using the bags because when the cookies got mixed together in their tins or whatever the flavors mixed & they didn't taste so great. We love doing it, too!
