On Saturday, Jon and I brought some cookies to Jon's mom Lorraine, a reader and real-life cookie taster. Here's what Lorraine had to say about our bing-in-able deliverables:
“I'm delighted to announce that as I'm writing this comment, I'm enjoying a Rosh Hashanah cookie with my tea. What a delicious breakfast!! These cookies made such a hit, that they'll be gone by the holiday. I really indulged as a real-life cookie taster and loved every minute of it. The "Redheads" were outrageous and the "Cranberry Crunch" were scrumptious! A good tip for fellow readers is how well they held up to freezing. They tasted just as good as if they were just baked. Of course the best bonus of real-life cookie tasting is spending time with the baker and the original redhead. Love you guys!! It's going to be hard to go back to being a virtual taster.”
Thanks, Lorraine! It's good to know the cookies freeze and defrost so well. We'll keep setting aside and freezing a few cookies from each batch...but I don't know if we can promise not to eat them before delivery!
Love the title of this segment! Your creativity and wit always amaze and delight me!

Greg! Still working on your package. I want to bake some of my favorite cookies for you. I am off on Friday and will have gathered everything I need. I will post them on Saturday to be delivered on Monday morning. Also, are you more of a coffee guy or a cocoa guy?

Ha! Thanks, Lorraine. Poppy's punny titles are an inspiration. "What's a Word's Worth?" ...priceless. :-)
