Cookie Baking


Every year, the Matthews Family holds a Christmas cookie baking contest. I'm not sure how or when this tradition was started, but it has become a tradition to find new, unique recipes that have not been tried before and create the most tasty, decorative cookies possible. It has evolved into a tough competition with a unique set of rules-they seem to get stricter every year. This year a new twist was added-an actual trophy for the winner, which will be rotated every year. So the winning family gets to hold the honor for one year and then pass it on to the next winner. Jeff was unable to make this year's competition, so I teamed up with my sister Heather and we brought home the win!!!



The trophy is now proudly displayed on top of our refrigerator in our kitchen. We'll see if we can repeat next year!
