I get really stressed out every Christmas – too much pressure to buy for literally everyone (6 adults on my husbands side plus 5 kids) plus our two kids – then my brothers and I usually do a joint gift for our parents and we (siblings and their spouses) play stupid games for “gifts/prizes” and have a blast with it. But I get stressed out over my husband’s family so this year.. I decided I’m not going to. Instead.. I’m making gift baskets containing:
– apple pie in a jar (made 19 today)
– praline syrup – (made 12 today)
– spiced honey – (made 8 today)
– loofah soap bars – I have 24 made – I grow the loofah myself and I added dried lavender leaves that I also grow and used a goats milk soap base.
– dried loofah
– chicken broth – canned a few weeks ago
– a dozen & a half eggs
– beef broth – this is the last thing I have left to can and I’ll do it next weekend.
I’m going to make some cute labels, add ribbons, put them in a nice basket and I think I’ll add some recipe cards and some cute measuring spoons and be done.
I’m excited to share things I enjoy & I hope they enjoy them ❤️

I wish you were my sister in law! Great gifting!
Oh and I made ranch seasoning and taco seasoning too (4the picture!)
Would I love to be your family member right now!! I aspire to be to this level of gift giving someday, you really went all out! I’m sure everyone in the family will enjoy your gifts, Merry Christmas 🎄
