All my life I was always told Christmas is about giving and not receiving. It’s difficult to always live by these principles but we try to do the best we can.
Most people like to put a lot of emphasis on the latest shiny battery operated device or the hottest new trendy “toy”. Come on grown ups like toys too, but there are plenty of other times throughout the year for these types of gifts. What is the best gift you ask? The one that keeps on giving. What gift is that? The edible kind.
When it comes Christmas gifts, shift your attention to the food related kind. Not the ones that you can purchase online or at a store, but the ones you personally make and give to friends, family, and co-workers. Want to feel appreciated? Make a batch of jar cookies and offer them up as a white elephant and watch everyone in the room try to steal this gift from each other. Highly entertaining by the way.
Edible food gifts made at home are super personal, they tell the person receiving the gift that you genuinely care about them because you took time out of your busy day to make them a useful gift they will enjoy and devour over the course of a few days. As they bite into the treats you made for them, they will remember you for a lifetime.
