My cookies are off!  Pittpanther picked (say that five times fast!) hers up today when she was here for my Pilates lesson, and began eating them straight away. :D  So I reckon they passed the taste test.  And I sent Terriponeale's off in today's post.

Will post the recipes when I get a little more time here.  One kind I wasn't terribly impressed with how the cookies turned out, but they still tasted good.  The other ones turned out wonderful & I even had a little lump of dough left over so I made DH a little Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo cookie out of it.  Next year, I think I'll make them all Mr Hanky the Christmas Poo cos I don't imagine too many people are making those. ;)

I can't stop eating Christmas cookies, somebody stop me!!!!

Yes, Mrs Robinson cookies have been a huge hit with me, DH will be home tomorrow night, not sure I'll leave him any  :P Especially since he didn't think this exchange was a big deal and I should focus solely on the move, as if!!!

My cookies are off today too, I just hope they make it before Azroomie is off to Sicily  :-\\\\ Not sure, but fingers crossed!

I agree, thank you for organising this! I got Pamela's cookies and they are sooooo good too :) Dh is already digging in to both kinds, so this was very worthwhile.

I got Hopster's the day I arrived at the inlaws. They are FAB and a much needed diversion from all the shennanigans going on here!!

Come on folks post recipes!!  So those poor saps who did not participate can bake them!  though I won't have a chance until I am in the USA as my stuff is in boxes. :(

Hooray!  niku2's cookies showed up in my post this morning!  Mmmmmm-mmmmmm!  I had to give one of each the taste test - for breakfast!  But I'm going to try hard & not be a pig cos we're going to spend this afternoon/evening with our friends who have three small kiddos & I'm taking this nice variety of cookies with us -- I am sure there will not be any cookies left! ;) :)

Thank you, niku2! :-*
