I’ll approve it when I get back to the key board.)

Homemade cookies are such a delight. You’ll have sticky fingers coming out of the cookie jar with these gooey treats, but they’re sure to please. Simple to make, and a big hit at parties. Just bake ‘em, let them cool, cut them into delectable squares, and serve up on a festive platter.

I am still in experimentation mode with my gluten-free baking. I really enjoyed the results today. This cookie does not taste gluten-free and it is not fragile like most gluten-free cookies. However, I must warn that the cookies are incredibly rich! Chocolate lovers only!

Even though we all got our big gift for the year on Election Day, that’s no reason not to celebrate this holiday season. Join your fellow progressives and toast the new Congress, share cookie recipes, or just chill out with friends. We’ll also be collecting canned goods and other non-perishable food items to take to the Capital Area Food Bank. For the past two years, members have been incredibly generous and have brought lots of food in to help the homeless — let’s keep that tradition alive in 2006.

Just a quick note to let you know the latest issue of my Investment Cooking Newsletter is out. It is filled with lots of yummy Christmas cookie recipes that are actually good for you.

Thanks to Michele for this link. It is a really cool way to find some new cookie recipes (and is all in tune with the season!). I gotta get myself going on these cookies. I bought some whole wheat gingerbread mix, so we can make some men, but otherwise I am not so good at cookies. Anyone have favorites they’d recommend?
