As I watched the snow come down on Saturday night, I panicked. Not only is snow a complete waste on Saturdays (no school), but I realized my cookie party might get snowed out. I jumped out of bed on Sunday to check the damage and it was pretty bad. We supposedly got about 12 inches of snow.
Poor Serg felt like death but refused to let me snowblow the driveway. By noon our driveway was clear and the roads were plowed. My friends and I had been texting back and forth and we finally decided to be brave, face the roads, and go on with the cookie extravaganza. I was so excited... I had been stuck indoors for 2 days with a sick man and I was starting to get cabin fever.
I had planned to serve some salty snacks to buffer the amount of cookies we were going to eat.
Here's the menu:
- Crab Dip
- Spinach Dip
- Mini Quiches
- Salsa
- Ranch Dip
- Pretzel sticks
- Potato Chips
- Tortilla Chips
- Carrots
We made sugar, chocolate chip, and gingerbread cookies. Anddddd we polished off 2 bottles of wine & some spiked hot chocolate. Throw some Caramel Bailey's into your hot chocolate... it's LIFE CHANGING. And it'll probably make you bake cookies shaped like this:
I love my friends... I had such a great time eating, laughing, and yes, baking. I hope we do this again next year, minus the snow!
Tons of love,
