Finally, the baking was complete and I got all the cookies frosted that were left to do. It was time to assemble the giveaway trays. Getting 16 trays together and wrapped for delivery took about two hours. That is always my husband's job. He likes to chit-chat with the neighbors when he drops off their tray. That gave me a chance to get all the containers washed and put away.
This is the island filled with all the cookies I had made all week long.
Mika kept me company while I filled the trays.
It is her morning nap time and she always naps wherever I am.
Here are the cookies I made this year. I often make many of the same as my neighbors have shared which ones are the favorites. The Soft Gingerbread was a first. I used to make Gingersnaps in previous years but chose a soft cookie version this time around.
I haven't made Cherry Winks in a few years, so it will be interesting to see if they were a hit. Personally, I love them.
For some extra sweetness, everyone has a sweet tooth, I made a few Chocolate Hershey Kisses and Toffee Almond Bark.
The cookie trays have all been delivered and all the recipients were delighted with this year's selections.
From our house to yours, may you all have wonderful, joyful, and festive celebrations, wherever you are.
Until next time, this is Sunscape
Sun. Scape. Ing Your Day
