Store bought cookies for cookie exchange?

Some feminists won't be satisfied until they ruin every good thing for society, including good baking

Everyone is too busy earning money to pay their "house manager," nanny, private chef or meal service, landscaper, etc. and too busy to tolerate holidays and family members. Sounds like great "equality."

But not too busy to eat other people’s cookies, we see.

Most people’s homemade cookies are nothing special … especially if it’s a neighborhood group of 20-25 people. You might have 2-3 decent bakers in the bunch.

But at least they tried and were good sports.

No, the finished product is more important if indeed the point is “to share cookies at your gatherings.” Do you want to pick through all the old, stale cookies, and the ones that just didn’t taste good, and the ones from Jessica who let her toddler “help,” and the ones from Lisa who has 3 untrained Huskies who jump on the table at her house? Because that’s going to be at least half or more of the cookies at a random gathering.

You’re way over thinking it. Just stay home, this isn’t for you.

Nope, you got caught in a logical contradiction and now you’re upset.

Nope, we appreciate at the effort even if we don't love everyone's cookies. But I have seen people get into and and try harder the next year once they see what it's all about. But you wouldn't understand. Go burn your bra at some other party.

Yess….I do not bake.
No reason really, I just do. not. bake.

So of course I am going to be super prejudiced in my answer.

No!
She should not be booted from the list.

At least she puts frosting on the cookies - - I probably wouldn’t even make that effort!
Lol!! 😂

Then why accept an invitation to a cookie party? Do you go to a White Elephant party empty-handed?

to go for fun. Store bought is fine.

It's fun hanging out with a bunch of trad wives who think their place is in the kitchen? Why would you want to be around them?
