STEPH DEROSA: THANKFULLY I'M SKIPPING THIS YEAR >>>

I LOVE to bake. Am I good at it? Not really. I just like to give the stuff away and make people happy with food.

Last year it did not bake cookies. I had rotator cuff surgery, and the arm did not stir anything through the holiday season.

So what did I do?

I bought cookies! In fact, I bought one a day until Christmas. Here’s the deal though: I visited local bakeries.

Check out my cookie posts from last year here. They're still tasty.
