Christmas Cookie Exchange
The cookie exchange idea is a delightful way to have a variety of cookies for
your holiday table. The hostess invites her guests to come and bring cookies
to exchange with other guests. Each guest brings as many packages of cookies
as she would like to exchange, plus some for the table. Everyone can relax and
visit and then take home a selection of different cookies for her holiday entertaining
- even the hostess enjoys this party because all the has to do is to prepare
coffee and tea and any cookies she might like to exchange, but all the cookie
to serve the guests are made for her.
A telephone call could be used to invite each guest or send out an invitation. Select your own wording or use the poem below for your invitation:
It's the time of the year
when best cookies are made
What fun to make extra in order to trade
Please come on _________
bring cookies, your best
Exchange yours for others and so will each guest
Bring as many to trade as you want to take home
And some for the table for we're sure
not to roam
Until we've had coffee, tea and a chat
and welcomed the season
There's reason for that
Our baking is done, we'll relax,
we are free
So sing Merry Christmas from you
and from me.
