Homemade Christmas gifts food
Food gifts are always a hit for the holidays because people love to eat. Giving someone something they came make later is thoughtful too because Christmas time can be busy. I love the idea of making mixes or things people can cook in January when they are cold, broke, and want a family activity.

- Homemade Granola (kids can help with this one too!) makes a great gift people can enjoy now or later.
- Soup Mixes in a Jar are wonderful for friends and acquaintances to make later on a cold winter day.
- Cookies are sure to please any Christmas gift recipient. Who wouldn’t want some world-famous delicious cookies!
