Cookies as far as the nose can smell





Today was a HUGE cookie bake fest with my youth group. We are trying to raise some funds for our trip to New Orleans for the National Youth Gathering for the ELCA.



This Sunday we will be holding a cookie and discount card sale to help with some of the expenses of the trip. It took a lot of work, but we ended up with 27 dozen cookies by the end of the day!



For the complete photo log of our cooking adventure, go to my Facebook account and look at the 27 Dozen Album. Bon Appetite!



Much thanks to all that helped today:
Sue, Tristan, Venya, Hannah, Scott, Will, Delia, Hebner, and Libby. You made it a great day!
