cookies, cookies, cookies

I have always wanted to host a cookie exchange, however, during the holiday season I am often too busy and it is difficult to find a weekend that works for everyone. This year, I had the bright idea that I should host a Valentine's Cookie Exchange, and my hostess-in-crime Amanda agreed.

Our party was the Saturday before Valentine's and it was the one Saturday in February that was 85 plus degrees. I was having too much fun to snap a ton of photos, but here are some of the decor and food ...




I decided to challenge myself in honor of the party and attempted my first batch of macarons! While Bottega Louie won't be calling me anytime soon, I was proud of my Chocolate Macarons with Espresso Buttercream!
