CONWAY — In the Mount Washington Valley, “C” stands for Christmas and also for cookies, candy, collectors’ ornaments, cookbooks and keepsake recipes, as the Country Inns in the White Mountains celebrate the 21st year of their annual Inn to Inn Cookie and Candy Tour on Dec. 9-10.
An event that draws cookie and holiday revelers from around the country, this ultimate cookie walk will combine overnight stays at beautiful inns in the White Mountains of New Hampshire with a scrumptious inn-to-inn tour of 11 B&Bs and inns decked out in all their holiday finery, plus homemade cookies and candies and recipes.
