Holiday Cookie Swap 2012. Partners Posted-Swap Closed.

[Chef Jean]

Welcome friends to my personal favorite swap here on Food.com!! I know when I think of the winter holidays, especially Christmas, I think of COOKIES! That's exactly what this swap is all about. If you would like to include other cookie related things such as cutters, oven mitts, etc. you are more than welcome to do that, but the only thing that is required of you is to send some tasty cookie treats.

The budget for this swap is $25.00, not including postage. If you decide to spend more that's a personal choice, but not required.

You can make your own cookies or buy cookies and ship them. Please be thoughtful when deciding what types of cookies to send, I love to see a little something special in all the swap packages! You don't have to go overboard of course, but I box full of Oreos may not be the most festive gift

Here is a list of a few places you can order gourmet cookies from if you decide to go the store/web bought route:

Hello and welcome!! So glad you joined in
