Holiday Gift Giving I
Do you have someone special in your life this holiday season? I do not. Well, not really. But for those of you who do and are finding yourself amid the struggle between finding something that person will really like and something that is sentimental and from the heart, here are a few ideas that have worked for me in the past…
I am a sucker for homemade gifts—I adore everything homemade—especially food. Every year, one of our family friends brings around a basket of fudge, muffins and sugar cookies every year. It’s one of the things I look forward to during the holidays.
Last year was the first year I spent away from home so I was unable to enjoy her basket of yummy goodness and I regretted it a little. This year, I’m making up for it and plan on stuffing myself.
This year I’m putting together goody baskets including almond bark dipped pretzels and holiday brownies. Don’t forget drinks! Homemade apple cider and hot cocoa will be sure to warm your honey’s heart *wink* Or! Try having eggnog on ice with a little bit of Captain Morgan—perfect for winding down by the fire. Oh, and don’t try roasting any chestnuts—especially if it’s early in the relationship.
Haha—I have been there, done that. Just an FYI – They stink up the house and aren’t very tasty. However, I guess it could be a good test of the other person’s patience, willingness to try new things and their sense of humor when things go awry… something to think about I suppose.
