"An Early Christmas Gift -- Snowman Cookie Jar"

I received an early Christmas gift from my mother yesterday ... a "Snowman Cookie Jar" from Macy's Christmas 'Home for the Holidays' collection.  Stop by for a homemade treat next holiday season ... he'll be dispensing cookies from his spot at the center of my kitchen table.  I've got a few months to actually bake those goodies ... I'm dreaming of Peanut Butter Blossoms, Chocolate Chip, Italian, Sugar, and what-have-you cookies to fill his and your bellies!
