A little something for the neighbors
UPDATE: Yup, went with the fresh baked, homemade cookies afterall. I made four types - lemon bars (from Joy of Cooking p 703), peanut butter cookies (Cooks Illustrated), macaroons (Cooks Illustrated), and chocolate crinkles (family recipe). And I think they turned out really well, although I did burn some of the macaroons. Opps! Hubby bought some holiday tins from Michael's - love it when stuff is on his tab and not mine - and I laid down tissue paper before putting the cookies in. Lovely, and no dollars off My Gift List. $69 bucks left with three presents to go. It's going to be close.
PREVIOUSLY: 
Fresh baked cookies would hit the spot but I think I'll go the somewhat healthy route and do banana bread or zucchini bread - or combine them for bikini bread! I can always fallback on the holiday standby - a bottle of wine.

I add chocolate chips and chopped pineapple to my zuccini bread to give it that "special" touch.
