Whew! I finally finished all of my little goodie bags of homemade gifts for my coworkers. As you know, I look for any excuse to try something new or cross a project off my list, so this holiday season was no exception.
Not everything was new, however. You might remember the cookie dough tubes from last year - click here for that post - they also made an encore appearance this year after many requests! And I did resort to an oldie-but-goodie recipe when the thought of rolling out dough for gingerbread cookies made my head want to explode - who doesn't love a spiced molasses cookie?!
So here's most of what was in the goodie bags this year - minus the addition of a small box of peppermint fudge and the cutest clean paint can container of homemade caramels that I inexplicably forgot to take pictures of! Dang! Here's the recipe for the caramels and the recipe for the fudge (add 1 tsp peppermint extract and top with Andes mint pieces to make my version).
Cookie Dough Tubes:
Citrus Christmas Shortbread Cookies
& Holiday Cheer Chocolate Chip Cookies
Personalized Mug Candles**
Made with Water Slide Decal Paper
Spiced Molasses Cookies
with Homemade Peppermint Patties!
Hot Stuff! Coffee/Tea Sleeve Cozies
Flight Light Firestarters
...little nest and all!
Select Goat Milk Soaps:
Chai Tea, Tea & Ginger, Farmhouse Cider, Orange Clove, Honey Oat
Key Fob Wristlets
a fun and useful way to attach gift tags!
I'm headed to Chicago for the holidays tomorrow - fingers crossed for good travel - so I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season. See you next week :)
