The Cookie Caterer

July 21st, 2008

My marathon cookie baking is finally finished, and it was a lot of fun!

I ended up baking (or no baking) just over 21 dozen cookies. There were plenty left over for snacks at home, but the Vanilla Iced Sugar Cookies made it just one day, they were so tasty.

I ended up taking the cookies this morning, and I loaded up my hubby’s car with 5 roasting pans of cookies. I lucked out though. My Mother in Law was visiting this morning, so she helped me carry in all of the cookies at VBS. My kitty was sad to see the cookies go, he loves baked goods… Dylan was happy to sample a new recipe, so no complaints from him.

I had so much fun baking, and I have signed up to bake another 10 dozen cookies for another local VBS. It looks like I’ll be spending more time in the kitchen, but I’m looking forward to it.

Cookie Check-In

July 19th, 2008

I baked and baked yesterday, and got about half way through my baking list. Both of the boys were happy with their Rice Krispies Treats Spoons, and the other tasty treats too. Today I’ll be baking the rest of the cookies, and spending the day in the kitchen.

Marathon Baking

July 18th, 2008

Next week Thade is going to Vacation Bible School, and I volunteered to bring cookies. The school needs about seventy dozen cookies a day. It is a five day VBS, so I signed up to bring fifteen dozen cookies. I thought I would bake 3 dozen a day, and take them the following day to VBS. Yesterday I received a post card in the mail requesting the fifteen dozen cookies by Sunday, so I am going to be in the kitchen baking all weekend.

I think it will be fun, and I know that the boys will enjoy the extra treats too. I’ll be baking or no baking:

  • Sugar Cookies with Vanilla Icing and Sprinkles
  • No Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies
  • Rice Krispies Treats
  • James Favorite Oatmeal Cookies
  • Wedding Cake Cookies with Sprinkles

I’ll be baking half today, finishing up the rest tomorrow, and taking them to VBS on Sunday. Better get to baking.
