Drop In and Decorate!

Tonight, we hosted a "Drop In and Decorate" party. "Drop In and Decorate" is a program based on the idea that you bake cookies, invite friends over to decorate the cookies, and then donate the cookies to a non-profit or organization helping people. I stumbled across their website while looking up sugar cookie recipes one day and I am so glad I did! Lydia (founder of "Drop In and Decorate") has a wonderful recipes for sugar cookies! Check out the website... http://www.dropinanddecorate.org/
More importantly this is a great program based on someone's love for others and doing something they enjoy. Best kinds of things to support!


Seven girls surrounded the Stockell house table tonight. We had a good time icing cookies, hearing about Shawna's engagement, and just a lot of laughing. Sometimes the best nights are good old fashioned fun of doing something simple. We will be donating our cookies to the Ronald McDonald House. A little Christmas cheer on the way!

And our finished product...
