To all my faithful readers, let me explain!


Above is a picture of our Open House last year, I'll get to that in a minute.
Ok, so it has been a very long time since I posted. I had high aspirations of putting a recipe on here since I was tagged, but it sits, unposted. I also planned on posting pictures of Thanksgiving and my visit to the Statue of Liberty. . .well you can look on the Shannon's blog for that. I think we work well together I take pictures, she posts them!
Well, I got back from NJ last week and I have been turned my kitchen into a bakery zone. This Friday night I am helping host a cookie open house for our church family at the Coley's (our senior pastor) house. So I have 12 different recipes I am working on; I thought I would at least let you know what cookies I am making this year. Maybe it will make you hungry to make some cookies yourself!

Done:
Kris Kringles (Cookie dough covered cherry with a choc. chip inside)
Mint Chocolate Snaps
Molasses Crinkles (making pumpkin dip to go with them)
No Bakes
Mocha Shortbread

To Do:
Snickerdoodles (in fridge to be baked)
Chocolate Chip (Adam will make his special recipe)
Gingerbread Family
Peanut Butter with a Kiss
Macaroon
Russian Tea Cakes
Oatmeal Raisin

So which would you try if you came to our open house?
Leesa makes other types (i.e. Sugar Cookies)too so we have more than listed . . .
Any cookie that you like that I didn't mention?

Hopeful posts to come:

I would devour those Kris Kringles! They sound luscious. I'd also be sure to eat a few mint chocolate snaps, peanut butter w/kisses, and molasses crinkles.

Wow, I can't believe you make so many cookies! How do you manage to stay thin with all those yummy goodies around?

looks good trish, all i can say is better you than me. it would take me forever to do all that and you know my patience with baking. :) it's good i'm not close by because i would be tempting with the peanut butter w/kisses and oatmeal raisin.

MMM i like kris kringles but have never made them. I love making and eating snickerdoodles, the one that is not on your list is the pecan cups - Mike's mom always makes them for me!

I haven't made cookies in forever because Michael doesn't eat them, and if I made a whole batch - well, it wouldn't be a happy situation for my health, let's say! I would pick the Mocha Shortbread for sure! Have fun with all the baking!!
