Ok folks, it's cookie time. This year your resident Queen of Ceremonies is me because all the other queens were busy being lazy.
So, what is this Stale?
It's a cookie/baked goods exchange. You bake shit, you send shit, you feel warm and fuzzy. Maybe you get lucky and someone does the same for you. It's a roll of the dice, much like life. Sometimes you get delicious cookies, sometimes you get AIDS.
Can I join in? I don't bake and am too poor for shipping...
Fuck no. Crawl off somewhere and die.
What about me? I live in Swaziland.
Hell no. International shipping is a bitch and customs hate baked goods. Should have had the good sense to be born in the correct country.
Ok, I bake, I live in Portland, and I can afford shipping, but I'm allergic to wheat, chocolate, coconut, sugar, and fun.
Look, we will do our best to accommodate serious allergies. But no promises. If your throat closes up if someone who had a peanut butter sandwich walks in the room, maybe you should skip this. Or give up and swallow a bullet. Seriously, peanut butter is fucking awesome.
OK Stale, I'm down, how do I sign up?
you send an email to : sepluspluscookies@gmail.com
subject should be your forum name i.e. numba1dicksucka87
body should contain
Your real name
Your real address
your absent times i.e. I won't be home Dec 20-26
allergies i.e. peanuts kill me
preferences i.e. I hate Coconut and Jesus
no special requests, no complaints, no nothing. I'm being nice and saying you can put down things you hate but this isn't a mail order service. You get what you get.
Now, signs ups will go until Nov 16th. That is 2 weeks to decide, plenty of time. I'll send out the matches shortly thereafter and you have about a month to send out your treats.
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
EDIT: as of 11/14 this will be a 2:1 exchange. Meaning, you will be baking for 2 people, and thus, two people will bake for you. More treats, more fun. So it is written. So it is law.
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Deadline for Delivery is Monday December 24th. No Exceptions. No Excuses. No Surrender.

As well as learning about melting chocolate and adding moisture and how that's bad unless you're making a foundation for your house.
E: Also thank you for picking up this torch, @Stale

giving cookies is so much fun!
maybe
But I'll think about it
we can do our own lil exchange
Preferably in an amount that a family of 15 could not eat in one night?
I'm not gonna lay out 20 rules and regulations for this.
Treats. I could not care less what they consist of.
Just make some treats, wrap them up, send them off, deliver before Christmas.
Try not to kill each other.
and obviously candies don't require an oven
Nothing to do with this thread of course, since its xenophobia city in here. But I'm thinking molasses gingerbread cookies, and maybe a buche Noel if I have time/inclination.
So I PM you my address and you send me some, right?
Oh well.
fuck though, that is an early deadline dude, winter break for school doesn't even start till a few weeks into december for me
was it that early last year too?
But baking is the fun part! I think I will have to invade a friend's kitchen. So, not signing up until I get that arranged.
Or sweetbreads, your pick.
Yes, someone should do that.
Specifically I nominate @edcrab to run it.
Just means you get to have an awesome cookie stash for awhile.
We'll have eaten all of ours too fast and you'll get to lord it over us how you still have cookies
This means I get to eat whatever you get sent, right? Woohoo
It means my kids will devour them like the ravaging cookie beasts they are.
I have so much baking to do.
Guess what this weekend is gonna be round one of? Yup.
butt of course!
Fudge butts.

I wanted a fudge butt though!

it's not that much really, especially considering I get 6 ovens and industrial equipment.
I dunno if I can get coordinated enough to do that.
But I plan to bake the fuck out of some cakes when I get home for the Christmas break. See if I can put something worth putting on the table during Christmas day together
my apt is normal but its just tiny as hell
but i still enjoy the kitchen
Taking it offline for an afternoon of sweet eats would not earn me favor with the other housemates
