Yum. My favorite cookies for mailing are M.F.K. Fisher's Ginger Hottendots--incredibly yummy and they hold up to mailing very well. VERY gingery. Homemade nut brittle also works well. Oooh. Yum.

It was my Dad's favorite cookie growing up... and it has proved a solid hit whenever I take it on the road. If I thought they'd hold up, I'd so try a cookie exchange by mail.

Sounds intriguing! Looks like on the cookie front we'll be making butterscotch marble blondie drops, Norwegian lace cookies, macadamia-white chocolate brownies, embossed macadamia stars. That's what I have so far, anyway! Okay I give–what’s a vacuum cleaner cookie?? Sounds intriguing!

I wonder which ones will make the list this year. (Snickerdoodles and vacuum cleaner cookies are on the must list-- everything else has to earn its way on the list.)
