Perfect Time to make That Treasured Gift

 Howdy folks, well snowed last night and colder then blazes so what better time to whip up a Treasured gift for friends and family. This is the perfect time to throw on the Holiday tunes and hit the kitchen for a little holiday baking. I know all my friends just love it when I hit the kitchen to make up our favorite breads and cookies because they know they will either be in the mail to them or on a nice platter and delivered straight to their door personally. I like to start with my seasonal quick bread recipes pumpkin bread, cranberry nut bread, banana nut bread you get the idea. I've got the perfect little individual tins for this and once I get done I wrap them up with little bows and their you have. Then it's time for the sugar cookies, I like the little cutters to make up little snowmen, Santa's and the like. Making cookies is the perfect thing to help keep your little elves at bay while their stuck in the house also, it will keep them occupied and will teach them a nice life skill for when they grow up. Now when you start making up the rum balls keep the kids away you don't need them getting into the rum and getting sick. Once your done you can make up nice little baskets or platters remember make them fun put them on a little sleigh or Santa platter things like that remember Treasured the little personal touches are what makes them treasured.
 Now that we've got all the baking done don't forget to drop off a couple platters at your local Nursing home, homeless shelter, or soup kitchen the folks there will appreciate it and remember tis the season for giving.
