I was over at Life As Mom and saw where she was sharing how she froze her cookies to create platefuls of various kinds of cookies within minutes as needed throughout the holidays.

No wonder she was just signed on to do a freezer cooking cookbook πŸ˜‰

Brilliant.

Cookies and freezer cooking?!? This FREEZE-O-RAMA mama is totally game.

I have meetings with clients, get-togethers with friends and family gatherings coming up. How cool would it be to have a plate full of DIFFERENT kinds of cookies to bring in some holiday cheer?

You have heard of a β€œBucket List”, well– here is my 12 Cookies of Christmas bucket list this holiday season… and here’s to hopin’ I don’t kick the bucket in the process πŸ˜‰

    Goode Grief! The thumbnail picture of your cookies on Facebook scared the bahuzous out of me. I thought they were monster cookies! Upon closer inspection, I see (DRAT!) that they look extremely yummy. Hope your kitchen floor repairs start making progress. Have a great weekend!

    I lvoe the color of those cookies. They'd break up a plate of the usual golden-brown cookies on a plate.
