Since money is really tight around here this Christmas I am trying to make as many gifts as I can. Do any of you have suggestions for boys who are 20 years old. I have made them a pillowcase apiece but am coming up empty on any other ideas. Do any of you know of anything?

My big boys like stocking caps...if it is cold enough where you are. My second son requested some lemon curd (his favorite) and oldest son loves to have his own tin of homemade jerky or fudge every year. Fleece throws that they can keep in their cars are always a hit too.

Kathy, you're back. How I missed you!!! I have no boys but my girls say they are happy with nothing---but ya know moms can't do that. Those fleece throws that Jenny mentioned are always welcomed. MB

My sons are the same age too! We have planned a cooking day together where we will make all of their fav's and will take home the goodies. They said they missed cooking with me. Next, I took apart some of my large plants and divided them into pots for their new digs. I also made all of their special holiday cookies and made a huge basket for them to take home. Another thing we did last year is sat around the table after dinner was over and we divided up all the pictures that still have not made it into albums. I was a Creative Memories Consultant so I gave them each a large album and started to put together the pages - the stories, laughter and tears made that day a GREAT one! As my guys always say - "We love doing the simple things together" and they are both hoping that at least one baby goat will be born during the holidays for them to kiss on. Remember - YOU are the best Gift!!
