Our Holiday Promotion for You, Beloved Reader
Dear everybody,
Hi.
It’s us, Kay and Ann and Adrienne and Allison and Ashe and Ashley and Chris and DG and Emily and Hannah and Natasha and Nathan.
We’re mostly scheming and dreaming about next week’s cookie swap here at MDK. But in the moments when we’re not, we’ve been cooking up our special holiday offer for you.
Here it is:
FREE U.S. SHIPPING when you order $75 or more in MDK merchandise. No coupon code needed.
Offer runs through Monday, December 2. Please understand that no retroactive discounts are possible on previous orders placed before Nov. 27.
Note! Further 10% savings are possible for Field Guide subscribers and MDK Society charter members. (FG subscribers: your code was emailed to you on Nov. 4. MDK Society members: your code appears in your order confirmation email when you joined.)
This is a big deal for us—MDK doesn’t get volume discounts on shipping the way mass merchants do. But we love a deal as much as anybody, and we love giving you a break on U.S. shipping.
Our hope is that you’ll cozy up for a bit with our lookbook (here it is!) and find something great, to give or to get for yourself.
Our Holiday Shop is a small and beautiful place, where you’ll find new crafts to explore, special yarns, and a set of virtual classes that will make your winter something to look forward to.
Love,
Your friends at MDK
PS We’d be glad to hear your favorite cookie recipe. It’s not that we’re competitive, it’s just that we want this cookie swap to be a quality cookie swap.
The best cookies are peanut butter blossoms. Learned in Home Ec and still the fastest disappearing cookie in the tin.
I was just thinking the same thing! I like to use dark chocolate kisses or sometimes the different holiday flavored ones!
My favorite cookies are Rosemary Shortbread served with Passion Fruit Curd. Lemon Curd is a good second choice.
Especially at the holidays, when butter and chocolate abound (don’t get me wrong, I love those!) I love having a batch of sesame seed cookies in the house. Crisp, mildly nutty, perfection with a cup of tea. A bit of chopped crystallized ginger stirred into them before baking also makes them sing!
Oh, I love sesame seed cookies! And thanks for the crystallized ginger idea!
Nutmeg logs from a Womens Day magazine about 40 plus years ago.
Off to google this! I make King Arthur’s soft nutmeg cakey cookies and love them. And I am always happy to learn a new use for nutmeg.
1) My kid’s favorite (even though they are in their 20’s) are cut out cookies, with colored sugar sprinkles. We have an old family recipe that isn’t as sweet as regular sugar cookies, but they will eat the entire batch in two days.
2) THANKS for the FREE SHIPPING!!
3) Happy Thanksgiving!!
Not a cookie but I’ve brought it to cookie swaps for decades and no on has ever complained. They’re called Grandma O’Deas Candies and they involve rice crispies, peanut butter, chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips and they’re delicious.
Monster cookies from an Amish cookbook. They’re oatmeal peanut butter cookies with lots of add-ins. Chocolate chips, nuts, coconut, butterscotch chips…
Spritz Cookies. A recipe from my grandmother and she passed away in 1970. So delicious!!!
Thank you for the Free Shipping!!!
I do love me a snickerdoodle, when I’m feeling like a classic cookie. The humble chocolate chip is our standby. But lately, my fam has been going crazy for my pumpkin chip cookies that I cobbled together. (white chocolate or dark chocolate chips are the bestest, but any chocolate chip with do) Honestly, they’re my current fave, even though I usually put 2/3rds of them in the freezer to keep consumption at a reasonable rate.
