It's up to you, really. Depending upon the recipe I choose, I may only send 1 dozen of each kind. The idea isn't necessarily to get load of volume, but to get lots of variety! The idea came to me because I did make about 8 different kinds one year (full batches) and my goofy inlaws didn't appreciate them. So now I crave the variety but could definitely do without the huge volume!

That said, no one is going to be upset if you send more than a dozen!! :)

I would also think that, rather than hard & fast rules, we could talk/PM/email to our assigned cookie buddies & kind of sort out who's baking what & how much we're sending, etc. :D

you can send me whatever you want.. If I don't eat it DH  will.  Plus I know it can be stressful with everything else that may be going on to get special orders...

OK Ladies! Here are your exchange names!! I think, on retrospect, it is easier for you to exchange addresses with the people you are sending to rather than me trying to forward everything accurately.

Names were selected on a totally random basis (I put your names on pieces of paper and drew them out). It was the easiest way to sort it all out so hope it's ok!

Here you go - the person in the first column will send cookies to the people in the second and third column:

Mrs Robinson     Terriponeale     Pittpanther
Terriponeale      Niku2              By the Sea
By the Sea        Terriponeale    Hauntedmansion
Yael                 Elynor             Lindyloo
Pkessler            Bad Munkee     Pittpanther
Hauntedm         Hopster           Yael
Bad Munkee       Balmerhon       Azroomie
Lindyloo            Elynor            Pkessler
Pittpanther        Niku2             Azroomie
Niku2                Mrs R            Yael
Elynor               Bad Munkee    By the Sea
Hopster            Balmerhon       Lindyloo
Azroomie          Hopster           Hauntedmansion
Balmerhon         Mrs R             Pkessler


Let me know if there are any problems!

Happy Baking!!
