Since I’m not baking cookies this year, I am giving my three closest neighbors a jar of Spiced Nuts and a freshly-baked loaf of bread, instead. Made the nuts today - the house smells wonderful! Made a loaf of bread for us and thought, ‘Bingo! Perfect Christmas Gift. Unique and unexpected.’

Found fancy jars at Dollar Tree for the nuts, and I’ll double-wrap the bread and tie that with a bow.
We just moved across the street from you! Can’t wait for the nuts & bread๐๐
