Tis the season of giving!!
But, like, we don’t always have to buy gifts to show people we care.
Oh, no.
My personal favorite simple-yet-forever-appreciated gift giving move: make a batch of a special treat- preferably one that looks pretty and you don’t make often- wrap it up with some ribbon, and give it to friends you know and everyone you meet.
I love doing this for friends and family members, but it’s also so nice to wrap up and give to teachers, coworkers, your favorite grocery store cashier, construction workers who are out in the cold, the homeless person you see on your commute every day, etc etc.
Point being, everyone loves a little package of homemade treats.
As I was narrowing down which recipes I wanted to add to my holiday gifts this year, I though it might be helpful to share some of my personal favorites with you, so you can hand out some homemade holiday love this year!
Happy giving, friends!
