I recently received a dozen cookies. Not just any cookies, mind you... but six Christmas Tree Smiley Cookies and six Gourmet Gingerbread Smiley Cookies. A dozen of delcious cookies that evoked a smile from my son, Cody, as soon as he saw them and an even bigger one after he took his first bite.

Cody is quite the connoisseur of cookies. He has tried many in his nine years (this Friday), and has his favorites, of which he has added the Original Smiley Cookie. To be exact, the Christmas Smiley Cookies are one of his top faves, now. He like the Gingerbread Smiley Cookies, a LOT, just not as much as the Christmas tree cookies. His words.

I enjoyed them so much that I plan on sending a Holiday cookie gift to some out of town family and friends this Christmas. If you have someone on your list who loves cookies (and who doesn't?), may I (and Cody) suggest a Gourmet Christmas gift.

I think most people associate cookies with the holidays. I used to make a lot of Christmas cookies, but with time constraints, work, traveling, and a myriad of other things going on... I think sending a Christmas cookie gift will save me a lot of time this year.

Here's some good news -- Smiley Cookie is offering YOU a treat -- if you "like" Smiley Cookie on Facebook you'll automatically receive a coupon for 20% off any of their Holiday Cookie Gifts and Baskets.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
