Raccoon Cookies

Raccoon Cookies!

We went to the River Hills Traveler's 

Christmas party today in St Clair, MO, really

more of an open house where fans of the

publication gathered to gab or ask questions

about the local area.  There were homemade cookies

spiced hot cider, fruit and of course lots and lots

of raccoon items to celebrate their mascot

  that happens to be everywhere in their office

including a raccoon angel tree topper!

The assistant editor

had baked up raccoon cookies that are just

too cute to eat.  I'm really thinking

about spraying it with lacquer and mounting a 

hanger for the Christmas tree!

I wasn't the only one taking them home whole

so I think others have the same idea.

The River Hills Traveler is a monthly newspaper

  about Missouri outdoors (link below), 

stories, hunting, travel, adventures, resorts and

events and points of interest.

There are links to festivals, outfitters, hotels

and lots more.

If you plan to visit Missouri, you might 

want to take a look at the link.

The Trading Post is filled with historical books on 

Missouri, guides, cook books, cds and dvds for sale:

A Paddler's Guide to Missouri, Missouri Cooking Wild,

mysteries of Missouri and other such topics.

My husband found several that he'd love to read

so you never know what might show up under

the tree- or for his December birthday!
