Just an idea for later in the month or so: I’d love it if we could hear some homemade Christmas gift ideas from our thread friends! We are actively looking for some ideas now. I’d even welcome a chocolate fruitcake(!!) recipe because that kind was the only kind I’d ever liked. Some food related gifts take a couple months. We made dill pickles from the garden once and it took 3 months.

Right now we are going to make natural lavender bath bombs that are actually healthy. The store ones can cause rashes and feminine problems. If they come out, I can put up that recipe.

Just in case you’re searching for thread ideas! <3
