Really happy for you that all things went on well for you. Kudos!<BR/>And I must add that the cookies look really good and they are very beautifully and professionally wrapped.

I just had to type you and all I had...Hello Baker! I just had to type you and all I had read was "the day I baked 800 cookies!", so I have to share this story. My sis in law was visiting, she's a great fan of baked goodies I send and a great aunt to our sons. So, on the weekend she visited, I was baking for a friend's wedding, 700 pecan sandy cookies (the event was at the beach), and these were to be the guests favors. On about the 500th cookie, she said "aren't you tired of making those yet?" and that's when it occurred to me, I really WASN'T! Yes, it was work, and my neck and shoulders would feel the activity, but my heart and brain, well, they were happy as clams! I do love baking for others, it gives me a joy that I never see leaving me, even when I'm 94 instead of my current 44! Thank you for sharing your experiences with the world!
