In a word, this year's cookie exchange was brilliant. It is awesome to be friends with so
many amazing women who bake and do it well. Our haul includes gluten-free chocolate chip, gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip, gluten-free pumpkin oatmeal bars with cream cheese frosting, apple pie cookies, peanut cookies with chocolate kisses, cream wafers, sugar cookies, orange cookies dipped in chocolate, and two types of cookies from Caroline I can't remember the names of. It's always fun to hang out with these ladies. One Henry Finn was a bit out of control - a melatonin update is in order - but he fell in line after I spoke with him briefly. I learned we might have entered the "fucking fours," which can be worse than the "terrible twos" and the "frustrated threes". All moms assured me that five - Yes, FIVE - is the magical age. One more year to go, I guess. I can't complain, I was thinking it would be horrific until Hen left for college. Anyway, Darr has informed me he isn't going to eat anymore ever again because his lunch was too big so I have to get cracking on this box o' goodies all by myself.

1) I asked Bobby did warn me about the fours.
2) I asked my Dad when it ends and he just gave me a funny look.
3) I want one of those pie looking things.
I feel a little bad about not making my cookies gluten-free. Sorry, Megan!
In other news, I pretty much want to inhale my whole box of treats right now. And I'm not really a sweets person. Holy cow, what a haul! Thanks for organizing/hosting/boxing up. Sorry I couldn't be a more active participant.
No worries, Stacey! I didn't expect to have any GF cookies except for the ones Christie and I made, so that I had an additional GF one was a treat.
