i have seen where people do the 12 days of christmas with different cookies for each day.
i like eating cookies.
not so much making them.

ON THE FIRST DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - a partridge in a pear tree... Sorry, but I couldn't find the partridge so I am giving you some pears from the tree the partridge flew away from.
(Leave note along with a can of pears or a few fresh pears.)
ON THE SECOND DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - two turtle doves... Unfortunately, I don't have any, will candy turtles on a bag of Dove chocolates do?
(Leave note along with a box of turtle candy and a bag of mini Dove chocolates.)
ON THE THIRD DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - three French hens... The French hens were not available, so I'm giving you some chicken noodle soup, compliments of the three French hens.
(Leave note along with a can-or 3 cans-of chicken noodle soup.)
ON THE FOURTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - four calling birds... I can't find those calling birds, but here are four messages they left for you before they flew off.
(Leave note for each member of the family telling them why you like them.)
ON THE FIFTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - five golden rings...Sorry, I'm too poor to buy five real gold rings, but will some golden pineapple rings suffice?
(Leave note along with a can of pineapple rings.)
(THE PINEAPPLE RINGS ARE MY FAVORITE NIGHT! it is just so dang funny!))
ON THE SIXTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-six geese a laying...You don't really want messy geese all over the house do you? How about some of the eggs they left behind?
(Leave note along with six easter eggs (check thrift store if you don't have any.) filled with candy.)
ON THE SEVENTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-seven swans a swimming...All of the swans have flown south for the winter, but here are some of the bubbles they used while they were swimming.
(Leave note along with a bottle of bubble bath.)
ON THE EIGHTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-eight maids a milking...Here's some milk I got from the eight maids-we think they must have been milking some brown cows!
(Leave note along with a gallon of chocolate milk.)
ON THE NINTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-nine ladies dancing...Here are some canes used by the ladies to help they walk home after they were out dancing all night.
(Leave note along with a box of candy canes.)
ON THE TENTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-ten Lords-a-leapin'...After the Lords get done leapin', this is what they use for their sore muscles.
(Leave note along with a tube of Ben-gay.)
ON THE ELEVENTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you - eleven pipers piping...Here's a pipe of your own, have fun and don't blow the whole day!
(Leave note along with a bottle of bubbles and bubble pipe. We couldnt find a bubble pipe last year, so i got some horns from the party part of the $1 store and changed the note up a bit. I am certain the parents didnt like us after this night!)
ON THE TWELFTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS, your true love gave to you-twelve drummers drumming... No drummers, we thought you could use some quiet time so here is a special treat we drummed up for you so relax and enjoy.
(Leave note along with some treats. We got a christmas movie that was on sale with some microwave popcorn and soda.)
no-i didn't make this up. i did modify from this. i think mine is better.
(of course!)

A couple of years ago I was so short on Christmas cheer. A sweet someone dropped this by my door and seriously improved my holiday. I didn't keep the notes, so thank you for posting them. They'll go in my Christmas file for another time.
oh staci i wish i could say i did that, but it wasnt us. it is a ton of fun and the kids get a kick out of being sneaky!
You are practically perfect in every way! My brother has been looking for a way to do 12 days of Christmas, and this is perfect. He almost did a gig (which then means you would be in trouble because I would have to burn my eyes out after seeing that, and I would be mad at you for making me blind) when I showed this to him!
You should change your name to THE FABULOUS BA!
