Ok, maybe we aren't that kind of Cookie Monster. But, we are the kind that like to get together every year, share our cookies and, this year, even candy!! The 4th Annual Cookie Party, hosted by Cathi and I, concluded today.
Don't these cookies just make you want to reach out and grab one? Oh, and look really close at the small plates by the tiered stand - those are some yummy candies made by Cathi (cough, Terry) that rival anything See's makes!
We have a fabulous guest list. Sorry some of you aren't pictured - you were probably in a blurry shot!! (Hey, I can't bake cookies AND be a great photographer!) There were those that were first time guests (hope they had a good time) and those that were seasoned veterans of the party (see, once you're on the list you can't get off!).
These candies won for best overall presentation. Aren't they gorgeous? Good job, Tricia (cough, Jared)!!

We gave out prizes, too. Can you tell which plate won for most unique? Go on, look closely.......ok, it's the one with the reindeer backed onto the plate of REINDEER PATTIES!! Great idea, Teresa!

Cid's pinwheel cookies and cherry chews won the prize for best decorated cookie. Hmmm.....didn't she win that LAST year? Somebody come up with something good to unseat her next year!!
Dave asked me why we do this every year. It's simply because we have a good time, we visit with some of our favorite people we don't get to see often and we go home with some yummy treats to share with our family and friends. Can you think of a better reason?

I am drooling.... looks like you guys had a great time!! Hope you are doing well!
I am really enjoying our yummy cookies--a little too much! I gotta stop or I won't have any to give away.
Cookies are my greatest indulgence and I think I may have to move down there just to enjoy this tradition. There is nothing better than great food and great company.
Heather, you move down here and I'll have a cookie party for you every other month!!
I love it! And i hope you do it every year!
Sorry to be "stalking"...but I had to see if you put pictures from the cookie party that Mom (Cidnie) always talks about! I have to say, she is pretty amazing at her cookie skills!! Happy Holidays, Laura!
Awesome cookie party, once again. You and Cathi are great for putting it on every year.
I'm determined to win a prize next year.
I had a blast! If Jared makes the goodies, I'll come every year.. I am blocked from Pat and Heathers blog but tell them Congrats!!!
