goodies abound!

I'm not really here.

Sunday is our wedding anniversary, so we packed up the kids to Grammy & Papa's for Friday night and it will be just the hubby and me until we pick up the kids on Saturday night.

But, thanks to auto-post...

I wanted to share this cookie recipe in case you're looking for something yummy to bake...it is the holidays after all! Which means lots and lots of baking!

I was invited to a cookie exchange last Thursday and my contribution was to bring 4 dozen Snickerdoodles (+ I made a couple dozen more for Ryan -- they're his favorite!). I ended up going with simple ~ simple, but a classic.

After leaving the party, I took home 4 dozen of a variety of what everyone else brought. YUM! After some nibbles on this and that, they went straight to the freezer for all of the holiday party fun. I get the variety of goodies without doing all the work! Nothing better than that!

This is only one container I brought home. The caramel bars and 7-layer bars are in another container! Oh, and there was even peppermint fudge! Oh my!


Hope you're enjoying all of the baking this season brings!

Oooh, those look really good. I took chocolate chip cookies to my exchange this year because I wanted to go simple. Rondell's favorite are snickerdoodles so I'll have to try these. Hope you're having a great weekend.
