Every year, I fall victim to the December cookie infatuation that sweeps through our country. It doesn't matter that Christmas is not my personal holiday. Any month-long celebration of a food group (Yes! I consider cookies to be a food group!) can't be ignored. Food for me is an expression of love. The beauty and diversity of cookies, and the sheer number that it is possible to bake, make them the perfect vehicle for spreading the love far and wide.
