thanks guys for all your great tips on this question.

I have not been out to eat in a sit down place or drive thru since early feb of 2020.

I never thought about the take out services and such. She is such a wonderful kindly neighbor lady. I love her and her 2 cute young kids. she has helped me out in the past.

she brought the cookies to the door with mask and I had a mask on too, just opened the front door big enough to accept the cookies container we chatted thru a cracked front door for a wee bit and she left.

am getting many great feedback. THANKS GUYS YOU ARE A HUGE HELP TO GIVE ME PEACE OF MIND

@viva923 The fact that your neighbor came to the door with a mask on shows on caring and kind that she is. Enjoy your cookies.

The two ladies at my salon love my apple bread and practically ask for it, and I enjoy making it for them. A few months ago I asked them to be honest and tell me if they would be comfortable eating the bread. I didn't want to waste my time and ingredients if they would be tossed. They assured me they would like it and when I took it in one of them started eating it. I would have understood if they said no.

Not a fan of food people make and bring by and haven't been for about 10 years. For many reasons.

One being, I am careful about what I eat, and if I am going to have treats, I want to eat what I crave and not what someone has decided I want.

I think for a lot of us, that is a tradition that has come and gone. It's just not something I want to do now. So many people have pets in their kitchens and handle pets without thinking about it, and then I don't know what is in the things for dietary reasons. . . etc.

Covid is a respiratory disease, not digestive.

I think that if Covid were spread through food that we'd all have had it by now. We've all been eating food throughout the pandemic (some more so than others, no judgment, lol!). Regardless of where it comes from, Covid is not a concern, which is why I am totally confused as to why the QVC hosts don't eat it during presentations.

It doesn't matter how careful and picky you are. You have unknowingly eaten some pretty gross stuff in your lifetime and you're still breathing.

If you think commercially prepared foods and restaurant food is pristine or safe, think again.

But, I will admit that I would not eat food from some people's kitchens. I have seen the insides of their homes and let just say, they don't meet my idea of cleanliness.

@viva923 What a lovely neighbor and you must be quite nice too for her to do this! Enjoy your cookies!

@viva923

totally NOT a dumb question! I have been debating the same thing.

Every year, I make cookies and my DD takes a huge tin to work. I mentioned to her I thought I wouldn't do that this year, you know, Covid and all. I also didn't want to waste my time and money if ppl were too nervous to eat them and worried about multiple ppl reaching in to open cookies.

She said her coworkers had already asked her when the cookies were coming!

A friend on the Potsticker thread made a great suggestion to pkg a few in zip lock snack size bags. That way, other ppl are not touching open cookies and they can just take a bag.
