The cookie season for the RoD Holiday Bake-off is currently open! We are now accepting cookies! As a recap, here are the rules this year:
- Each contestant may enter up to three items.
- Cookies or bars only!
- No cookies can contain any nuts! (Please be stringent about this, one of the judges has an allergy. Nut allergy = anaphylactic shock.)
Besides me, my co-judges are the runners-up from last year, Team Chicago (Shannon, Von and Marty). This year we're adding a special guest judge, Snag's son, Snag Jr.
Please message me or leave me a comment if you want to participate! Cookies will be accepted through Dec. 19!
Get ready to spend the next 3 weeks in a butter coma!!! Oh, but what a way to go! :)

I am happy to announce that I will be available to help Snag Jr. with the consumption portion of the judging.

Now is when I most long for my long-gone youth. In high school, I baked cookies more than I watched TV or movies. I spent more hours baking cookies than minutes studying. Baked more than I hung out with evil companions, and more than I listened to music. I baked more cookies than I could have possibly acquired boyfriends (and I was sort of going for the record in that non-varsity sport.)
But now? My finger's broken; I'm battling daily migraines. And the last two pies I made resulted in bad burns on my arms and tasted like...like runny fiascoes.
Maybe someday I'll grown young again. Meanwhile, I love reading the cookie sagas.
