Continuing the holiday fun recap…2023 Cookie Exchange was certainly one to remember. With delectable baked goods deserving to go viral in the next “Best Patisserie Superstars found in Chicago” reel* WCAS folks did not hold back! From confections such as Ted Lasso Shortbread, Earl Grey Sugar Cookies, Rainbow Cookies, Assorted Danish Cookies, M & M Cookies, and the list goes on and on…Who said we want more?!!! We see you all raising your hands, we’re here for it and we’re already counting the days for the next one. No shame, we love it and we know you do too!
Then there was the moment when the famous Christmas Décor trophy, was handed over to the Dean’s Office Team. With their Barbie theme decorations, the talented team took home the grand prize, but not without a challenge from all the other amazing contenders and their respective masterpieces.
We cannot thank all of you enough for participating, joining us, but most importantly, for helping us close the 2023 Season of Joy in the jolliest fashion.
This has been fun. Hasta la vista, baby! (but really, who said we want more?!)
