Hello!

The holidays will be here before we know it!  The stores are adding Christmas items already.  I'm hoping to add a few new cookie varieties to my tray this year.   For this swap, everyone will send a holiday cookie recipe to everyone else on the list.  (If we get more than a dozen participants, I will split the list.  Although, you will still have the option of mailing a recipe to everyone if you choose; just let me know.)  Recipe is the sender's choice - one recipe or multiple recipes; the same recipe to everyone, or a different recipe to everyone.

I'm excited to start the holidays this way!  Please sign up by sending me your mailing address via personal message by October 31.  I will send the list(s) of participants on November 1.  

Fleur

I was planning on joining this swap, but since I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes a couple of weeks ago, sweets are off the menu for me. Have fun, and I'll see you in December!

Oh, sorry to hear that, Yvette.  I have a few family members with diabetes and they manage with medication, but I try not to tempt them.  I no longer send sweet rolls their way.

Thanks, Fleur. I'm doing well managing my blood sugars by staying on a very low carb diet, but yeah, I don't need the temptations.

I've received lots of recipes and I can't wait to try them all. 
Like Yvette, I mostly need to stay away from the sweets because of diabetes but I still bake tons of them at Christmas for the family. 
 

Thanks Fleur, Pat, Robin and the PBS Fairy  :)
