Christmas Gifts

I absolutely love giving my friends gifts. However, it can get expensive. So, this year I am thinking about baking their presents. I can't reveal all my secrets, but they will be sugary sweet. I love to bake and what better way to combine two things that I love, baking and giving gifts. I am going to find cute little Christmas bags to fill up with goodies and tie them with ribbons. I get the Food Network magazine and they had recipes for five different kinds of  popcorn balls and 100 treats to give as gifts. I could do covered pretzel sticks or fudge. Just thinking about baking makes me excited. I just wish Christmas would arrive quicker so I could start! Christmas brings so much joy. I was also thinking about what to bake for Thanksgiving dinner. I love baking shoe fly pies, but I might try something new. I might make hush puppies and a sweet potato-marshmallow pie. Sound good???

  1. Oooh. Can you come to my house? Hush puppies and sweet-potato marshmallow pie. Yummy! I get Food Network magazine, too. Those gift ideas in this issue are great. Just today I was looking through it and the thought of chocolate covered pretzel sticks just made me hungry. Have fun. Your friends will enjoy your efforts.
