60 Ultimate Cookie Exchange Recipes {and When It's Time to End It}

If you're looking for a winning recipe for your holiday cookie swaps, then scroll through this round-up  of 60 Ultimate Cookie Exchange Recipes on Taste As You Go!   Do you ever get That Feeling in your gut when you realize that what once brought you happiness now fills you with dread? You know the one... It's That Same Feeling that causes you to ask yourself repeatedly " Why am I doing this again?" I've been trying to battle that super persistent feeling for the past few weeks by giving myself little pep talks: "Don't give up now. You DO want to do this!"  "Don't you remember how much you used to love doing this? Just keep going!" " Do it one more time and you'll see -- everything will be fine. You'll feel much better once you get it over with." But no matter how many times I tried to get excited about it, I found a reason to avoid doing it. (Thank you, Caroline.)

Now that my baby bump is most decidedly showing, more and more people outside of my circle of family and close friends have been asking me how I'm feeling. Not surprisingly, a lot of the questions I'm being asked have to do with food.

Are you craving anything yet?

No. Unless you count the endless amounts of cheese I ate during my first trimester.

Are you eating enough?

I think so. But I'm sure one could make the argument that I should just eat more.

Do you have any aversions to specific foods now that you're pregnant?

Thankfully, no. There was a brief moment (brief = a few hours) when I didn't want to be around raw chicken, but that didn't last.

Are there foods that you miss eating now that you're pregnant?

Yes! I really miss eating raw sushi (even though I've been advised be several people that it's okay to eat in moderation if I trust the source), and I really, really miss my bottomless cups of coffee when Stephen and I go out for brunch on Sundays.

Despite having to watch my caffeine intake, I do allow myself one cup of regular coffee in the morning for the ritual and routine. Every now and then, I slide and give myself permission to have a second cup of coffee, but those instances have been few and far between (and usually involved decaf).

Of course, now that I'm limiting the amount of coffee I drink each day, all I'm noticing in stores and online are the adorable coffee cups that are out there. Instead of compensating for the lack of coffee by buying all of those mugs, I decided to put together a fun round-up of coffee cups from one of my new favorite online stores as a way of getting my "fix".

Plus, by writing this round-up, I'm avoiding having an argument with Stephen about the number of coffee cups we already own... ;-)
