Today I am hanging out over at NewlyWoodwards: Third Annual Dare to DIY, blog party.

Her DIY challenge is: Dare to………………… eat cookies.

We sure do eat a lot of homemade cookies around these parts.

Check out these tasty “calorie-free” cookies.

Disclaimer: they are only calorie-free, because at Christmas, cookies are calorie-free!
