Making homemade gifts is a wonderful way to give something from your heart. During these troubled times, people especially need to know you care. Giving baked gifts is a very thoughtful way to show you care without having to spend a lot of money.

I love to bake so I usally give my friends and neighbors baked goods during the Holidays. There are lots of creative ways to give the gift of baking. For the past several years, I’ve given gifts of homemade bread. Everyone seems to enjoy it.
