One of the major elements of the Faber Family Christmas(tm) is a table heavily laden with cookies and other confections. Donna and Bethany bake a dizzying array of delectable sweet treats.

In addition to the traditional menu of peanut butter balls, pizzelles, coconut balls and such, Bethany made Half Moon Cookies—a cake-y cookie Ted remembers fondly from his childhood Christmases in upstate New York. They were fantastic; Ted was thrilled.
