| Summary: | How do cookies figure in? Thanks to enterprising women of the church, the annual Cookie Caper as a [Valentine] feature was launched three years ago. Last year, for example, the sale of the long- stemmed super-size cookies made a profit of more than $4,000. More than 250 dozen were produced, and delivered by volunteers in a vicious snowstorm on Valentine's Day. The cookie crew is again at the ready for this year's project, said the chief organizers Beth Arnott and Ona Spidell. The cookies, packaged in tissue-lined, ribbon-tied soft pink and white boxes - the same as florists use for long-stemmed roses - will again sell for $20 a dozen. They'll be delivered to your Valentine anywhere in Kitchener-Waterloo for free, or for a $3 charge outside of the Twin Cities. The boxes will have an enclosure card with your message as dictated to the order-takers. The evening is dubbed a Tour of Ethnic Cuisine. The menu will feature Montenegro Black Mountain seafood bisque, Portuguese egg with pink hollandaise sauce, lychees and ginger sorbet, accompanied by Gazela vinho verda, then an entree of grilled mango chicken breasts and Johnny cakes with seasonal vegetables, accompanied by vina Carmen Sauvignon Blanc 1990. Dessert will be Sicilian expresso cheesecake and house-blended French vanilla coffee. Liqueurs will also be served. |
