Man your ovens, liberal wretches! The war on Christmas ain’t gonna fight itself!
The rules:
- Each contestant may enter up to three items.
- Cookies or bars only!
- No cookies can contain any nuts! (Please be stringent about this, one of the judges has an allergy. Nut allergy = anaphylactic shock.)
The deadline: Submissions must be received by December 19th. Submissions received after December 19th will be eaten and publically mocked.
The Judges:
- Claire
- Shannon
- Von
- Marty
The Prizes: reputed to be fabulous beyond your wildest imaginings! But will probably turn out to be a Target gift card or some half-price crap from Barack Obama’s online gift shop.
If you want to enter, shoot me an email at kwbaker at gmail dot com, and I’ll provide you with the mailing addresses for the judges. Oh, and you only have to mail two packages, since Shannon, Von and Marty are all in once place.
Hmm. The nut allergy rules out any “ethnic” desserts. (Everything I’ve ever learned from my mom on that front involves lots of nuts.)
Mandos, I was concerned about your contributions because of the no nuts rule. Maybe you can me some brittle as a bribe?
Are you kidding? It rules out ethnic desserts even if your ethnicity is “western Europe”! But that’s a really serious allergy, so we need to respect it. Also, the limits will spur our creativity!
Oh and Res? Thanks for posting for us!
So much for my Rocky Mountain Oysterdoodles.
HAAAAAAAAA
I’m glad there’s a maximum of 3 items…that’ll help keep me from going overboard. Unfortunately, it also helps BG, since there are only so many recipes that call for playdoh, she won’t have to narrow down her field of recipes.
It rules out her just making magic bars.
Well, at least none of the judges has celiac disease. That’d put a crimp in anyone’s style.
Can the entries be MADE by nuts?
If a judge had celiac, I think I would ask them to recuse themselves.
Do you want people to make cookies and then send them away? That does not compute… Besides, I never get enough dough to make it to the oven to actually bake. Mmmm… cookie dough!
All your cookies are belong to us.
That does not compute…
LOL so true! On the other hand, being a judge in this thing is the sweetest gig in the universe. You get cookies in the mail for no reason, and you just have to eat them and decide which are more delicious.
Thanks for the post RoD!!! And, as the judge who is allergic to nuts, thanks in advance for adhering to that rule. For realz. If I eat a nut found in your entry, I will send you the er bill. Ok, great!!! Let’s get baking!! (Oh, and to clarify, I do not reside w/ Shannon and TheMarty, but if they know what’s good for them they WILL be giving me treats to judge)

Funny you say that, because I just BARELY refrained from stating in the post that you three had some kind of weird open-relationship hippie group marriage thing going on. Just because I’m nice like that.
Tee-hee! I knew someone would go there, might as well be you!

Don’t forget the bribes.

As long as they don’t have nuts.
I can’t imagine Cindy eating nuts.
I CAN, however, imagine her having John’s bronzed and mounted on a spike on the front of her desk. She makes him look at them when he’s asking for money.
Sooo… I’m making cookies and sending them to you to be judged? The pressure! I don’t know if I can handle it.
Tee-hee! I knew someone would go there, might as well be you!
more a matter of when than who.
