Would it be inappropriate to give a food item as a “thank you” gesture to my vet since your profession has you working so hard for others?

I don’t think food is ever inappropriate, It’s usually well received, though there’s a couple of things to consider.

• Food that can be shared with the whole team is best, because a vet clinic is a team really.
• Bite sized or small potions is easier to eat and enjoy when the clinic is busy. I mean a cake is wonderful, but you have to cut it and get plates and somebody has to make the first move and so on. Cupcakes are better, just little handfuls you can take and consume on the go.
• Food allergies and intolerance are a thing. My nurses love it when I get gifted a box of
  Ferrero Rocher

  because I can’t eat a single one, so more for them.

But yeah. Food is pretty good.

For peanut butter cookies that don’t contain wheat or dairy, mix 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla, roll them into 1 inch balls, smush them into cookie shape, and bake at about 325 for about 15 minutes or until soft but not batter-y. Mix-ins should be added before baking, anything you want, and they take more like 20 minutes with add-ins. Good for most cookie things.
