Poll Vault: What kinds of cookies do you make for the holidays?

The Daily Herald newsroom is a sweet place each December, as it becomes a repository for Christmas cookies.

Employees bring in baked treats, and vendors also send us goody baskets for the holidays. (Ethical disclosure: We eat the food, but we put swag such as books, toys and DVDs in a sale to benefit charity.)

Yesterday, my co-worker Kathleen arrived with not one but two kinds of holiday cookies in tow: M&M chip and cranberry-orange-walnut.

Next week, I'll bring in pizzelles, an Italian waffle cookie that the women in my husband's family make each year. We'll have our pizzelle irons heated up on Sunday.
