And I am so delighted about this.... I just purchased one of those glass, pedestal cake plates. Only $10 and truly...it can make any cake look scrumptuous....or any pile of muffins, cookies, Oreos. (forget i said Oreos ok?) Anyway, I didn't realize til my daughter and I excitedly pulled it from its box, but you can invert both the pedestal and the dome lid and it turns into a BOWL on a pedestal...for punch or salads. So...go get one ... right now! Now i'm not so happy about this but i must replace the crock pot which appears to be cracked....must have it for the mulled wine
Last year when i gave you a report on our sewing club cookie party i promised to send you the recipe for my favorite cookie from the party - little log-like delicacies. (see recipe link below) These were so yummy but my apologies - they seem not that easy to make and don't really comply with my "simple and pleasurable" endeavor. However, they were the very tastiest morsel on the table and at the end of the recipe is a suggested shortcut. I will also give you a very simple bar cookie recipe which many of you may already have. Some cranberries have been added however for a festive zing.
For last year's cookie party report and lots a party ideas, see NEWSLETTER #5.
