Awww Monday Christmas Cookie contest

This season we wanted to try and get a lot of Christmas Holiday events and fun activities in. This particular event was the State Port Pilot Cookie Contest held in Southport NC. There were cookies with a display to vote on.  We originally thought it was like a cookie walk where you pick up a cookie from many different types to buy. It wasn't that, it was many displays and you voted on your favorite at the end. We liked the Elf on a Shelf one because it made us laugh. And my favorite was the Baklava Thumbprint cookies display with the cookies used as the wheels. Very clever. After the walk through, you got to take a little bag of assorted cookies home. Cute and fun event to do in town and may become an annual event. As of yet the winner hasn't been announced. It will be announced in the State Port Pilot's Christmas week's edition. 


This one had a large Elf on a shelf trying to steal the cookie.

  2. Such creative bakers! But like you, we would have loved a "cookie walk" to have gathered up some of each to buy and take home.

  7. What a fun event! It could be done with pet treats too! Actually, that would be a good fundraiser for a shelter!
