Toys for Tots & Cookie Exchange
December 20th @ 5:00pm
| The idea is simple: Everyone brings an UNWRAPPED toy and a 2-3 dozen of (hopefully homemade) baked goods and distributes roughly 6 to 12 cookies each to the other attendees. So, at the end of the event, you and your guests will each have your own delectable assortment to share with your family, friends and neighbors. |
| All cookies should be homemade. Please bring at least 2-3 dozen cookies (or more if you’d like!). Print out copies of the recipe to share. Arrange cookies in a basket or platter (be creative!). Bring pretty boxes or tins to carry away your treats. Christmas attire is encouraged. Bring an UNWRAPPED toy. |
