Oh, my, what a fabulous collection of cookies! I love the way you’ve organized them–makes it easier to pick out ones I might try.

The whole holiday thing is quite overwhelming for me, and my first reaction is that I’m excited at the prospect of making and sharing delicious baked goods with family and friends. But the thought of baking, packaging, shipping, wrapping, giving, and distributing is downright scary and makes me want to go to bed and pull the blanket over my head.

One step at a time, I suppose. And browsing your lovely selection of cookies of all different types is a great first step. Thank you!
