2 weeks until Christmas.
This was last minute, but last night I made homemade caramels and today I cut and wrapped them. Tomorrow I'm going to get some cookies out of the freezer to frost, and I'm going to assemble a couple of the giving containers.
I've made 2 batches of Toffee, 35 cups/baggies of Puppy Chow, Nut Rolls, and Homemade Marshmallows too. The reason I make so much is simple: I have 3 teenage boys and a husband who has a very physical job. So, 4 hungry males I have to keep ahead of to have enough to share, lol. :lau And to be...
Yesterday I made 11 dozen sugar cookies to freeze and today I made gingerbread cookies and peanut butter cups.
I frosted some for us to have, to get in the spirit of giving. :) My husband and boys were very grateful.
I still have several things to make, and then to pack up to give.
I've went to the dollar store to pick up inexpensive sweatshirts for our garbage men, gloves for our UPS driver, and thick warm socks for the FedEx driver.
I'll start by posting a few treats I'm making.
For several years now I've given our friends, family and some neighbors goody baskets at Christmas. Then I expanded it to give delivery people some goody bags.
We are going through some of the worse times in our Dairy business and will be losing it, and trying to move on. Something that helps...
