DECEMBER 2ND 2012 LYON TOWNSHIP COMMUNITY CENTER...
this is about 10 minutes west of Novi, 30 mins north of Ann Arbor, 35 minutes west of Detroit... Pretty central to the Detroit/Ann Arbor suburbs...
It is a super fun, but relaxed swap. I invite WOMEN and DAUGHTERS over 13 (so that they can actually learn to bake- you'll be amazed at how many cannot)
ALWAYS ROOM FOR MORE... PLEASE EMAIL ME @ KIMZKIDZ@AOL.COM OR FRIEND ME ON FACEBOOK- KIMBERLY BUTLER HURLEY

My invites usually get some hem and hawers.. but in the end, they all know it's in good fun and most make the party. I usually have 30-40 each year (my 5th yr this year!)
LAURA== I would LOVE to know what you put in your survival kits (thinking I may use your idea!)

I have an evening party...26 guests this year...7-10pm.. First 1/2 hour are guests arriving, getting everyone with nametags on, having them set out and label their sharing cookie plate...Then about an hour of games/appetizers... We exchange around 9 and most are gone by 10. I'll include more info other than drinks to get a background: Appetizers I have are: cheese dip/crackers deli spirals bacon wrapped filet mignon chips/nuts/m&ms For drinks: spiked punch (lemonade,cranberry cocktail, 7up, vodka) Water Pop I dont do coffee--noone's ever asked either ... The spiked punch is the hit of the party and there is never any left

I had my guests bring less.. (they can bring more, but I have a LOT of non bakers!) each guest brings 4 1/2 dozen... 6 cookies in a package with recipe..8 pkgs total.. the extra 6 go on a sampler plate (I usually cut up these cookies into 4 pieces so everyone can try .. I also have a sweets exchange.. dozen packages with recipes...2-3 person serving size per package... Last year, I had 22 folks and each brought 8 dozen...we ended up with a few of each kind...But i did hear whiners

I just saw at Michaels craft store in the wedding/candy section that there is cookie icing just for painting/flooding cookies.. I think it's Wilton brand..
I just use the basic powdered sugar/butter/milk recipe and thin it down a lot with milk adding the food coloring before I thin it...

I am doing both a cookie exchange AND a treats exchange... Here his how I worded it PARTICIPATE IN ONE OR BOTH! FOR THE COOKIE EXCHANGE: Bring your cookies wrapped/packaged in groups of 6 with recipe attached. 4 dozen cookies MINIMUM (you can make more!) Prizes for packaging, so be creative! FOR THE TREATS EXCHANGE: Bring your treats wrapped/packaged in a generous 2 person serving size. (I know you are thinking, huh?—example- Chocolate covered fancy pretzels—about 6, Fudge- about a dozen pieces, Candies- about a dozen pieces) Attach recipe as well! 1 dozen pkgs MINIMUM (you can make more!) Prizes for packaging, so be creative!
