Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Great question. My daughters and I always enjoy a day of baking, several kinds of cookies, candies and bars to share with my husbands co-workers. We make up a seperate plate for each one in his department with a nice assortment. They love it and we have a lot of fun coming up with different recipes to use each year and make together. We also make up a big assortment plate each year and take to church for light refreshments after the service. We just love the holidays.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Yes. I'm going to give myself a big lasagna and probably a pie. I'm also thinking of baking myself some snickerdoodle cookies, and for my stocking I'm going to give myself a box of chocolate covered cherries. As for other people, I think I might take a stab at those glass jars with the different layers of ingredients for cookies or something... haven't really thought about it really. Except that pie. I've thought about that a lot. " artichoke72x " <artichoke72x wrote: Question of the Week: The holidays are coming up. Will you be giving edible gifts this year?

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 That is a neat idea, I haven't ever sent Jeff to work with anything. I might try that one of these days. It'd be nice to have guinea pigs to try new recipes on! wwjd <jtwigg wrote: Great question.

I mean, there's a definite right-side-up on something like a pie. Otherwise, I may make a fudge. All would have to be vegan. They're not (though my Dad is at least vegetarian), but I am... and the treats must be tested first, after all. -Erin www.zenpawn.com/vegblog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Could you post the recipe for that banana cream pie when you have time? That sounds awfully good.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 i usually bake tons of cookies and quick breads to give as gifts each year. i also make baskets filled with fresh fruit, the cookies and breads, chocolate, teas, and coffees to give as gifts. i'll probably do the same this year. i was thinking about making cheesecakes for each of my son's teachers, a basket of goodies for my aide, and bags of a variety of cookies for my co-workers and neighbors. i'm not sure what i'll do for my 20 kids....books, perhaps. i'll post some of my favorite holiday cookies recipes. susie --- " artichoke72x " <artichoke72x wrote: > Question of the Week: > > The holidays are coming up.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 I bet they would love it. My husband's co-workers are always telling my husband that our daughters get an A+++ in Home Ec. LOL They are making all kinds of things of treats to send with him. Makes for a more positive atmosphere at work when folks show care for each other.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Hi! I've been reading all the answers from the group members who enjoy baking and giving all those delectable goodies! I always enjoy receiving them! I also like to give edible gifts, but mine are more in the way of neat purchased canned and jarred things like hot sauce or chutney that I've found that I like and think the recipient will too.....or exotic teas--things like that. I figure it can go on the shelf and keep for awhile and then be pulled out and enjoyed long after the holidays are over. I guess it's the lazy way to gift with edible goods! LOL! But, hey! don't want to discourage any of the bakers and candy makers out there!!!!! I LOVE those little plates laden with goodies!

I made my first cheesecake last week to bring to my sister's house for Thanksgiving and it was delicious, so I'm going to try it again. -- Liz ______________________________\ ____ Music Unlimited Access over 1 million songs. http://music./unlimited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
