Ummm there are many SAHMs who bake as a side job -usually cakes and cupcakes but i'm sure they'd make you some cookies - you might be able to find them on a neighborhood list serve. I am not in the DC area but i know I see them frequently on our neighborhood list serve. If not a list serve, maybe craig's list? Good luck - i feel ya'

I am too busy to bake this year, not to mention I don't like to do it! But my parents are coming into town and they have requested that I have Christmas cookies for them. I told them I just didn't have time (I am undergoing a surgery over my winter break) and they of course understand. But I feel bad because I want them to be happy! So where can I buy homemade or assorted Christmas cookies?
