Should there be an SE++ edible treat exchange this year?
Interest has been waning the past few years and it's a fair piece of work for me to put it together. Do people still want to do it or should we put it out to pasture?

Yes, I want to send strangers my wares.

No, I don't have time and/or have lost interest and/or have no holiday spirit.
It was traditionally called a cookie exchange but people wanted to send a variety of things so we've switched to straight edibles. If it can be mailed and it's festive then it's fair game.

I voted 'no' because I wasn't personally interested in doing one, although I've participated in the past. Seems like there's a lot of potential for issues with homebaked goods as opposed to the regular gift exchage. HOWEVER
as soon as I pressed that vote button I realized that's a pretty shitty thing to do. "Hey everyone, I don't think there should be a treat exchange because FUCK YOU I'm not personally invested in one so there shouldn't be one!"
I cannot take that one back though, and now the world can see that I am a Scrooge McNoFunBakedGoods person.
Ok so there's 7 of you, we can still do a semi-respectable exchange. I'll leave this up for a few more days and if a few more people say they're in then we'll mail all cookies. Or bring them all to my house. If you all want to have a cookie party at my house that would be fine as well.

For me, I could go either way.
