Chaloner Associates, an executive search firm with offices in Boston and New York (and my husband's company!), added a bit of creative zing to its corporate holiday party this year: a Drop In & Decorate® event, with cookies donated to Casa Myrna Vasquez, a Boston emergency shelter for victims of domestic abuse.
Staff members from both offices gathered to bake, decorate, and deliver the cookies -- a great team-building opportunity and a wonderful way to celebrate the season.
Read more about it (and, yes, see photos) on the Chaloner Associates web site.
Ooh, I love the wrapped boxes to deliver them in! I am stealing that idea!

We stole the decorated box idea from the original Drop In and Decorate - credit to Elspeth at Laramie Studios.
The team is definitely planning to do it again. We had a wonderful time and were very proud of our cookies.
