Ideas for Neighbor Gifts

I admit I'm not very creative when it comes to giving Christmas treats to neighbors. Last year I made Orange Almond Bread (my favorite!) and wrapped it up in saran wrap and tied it with ribbon. Yup, that's pretty much the extent of my neighbor gifts. I know that my next door neighbor, Rich, was most appreciative since he lives on his own and gave me a gift in return (not that I expect that of course).

Over the weekend I was looking in a packet my mom has of ideas and sayings for gift giving. My favorite was as follows:

Attached is a brownie, cookie or cake mix.
"Roses are red. Christmas is sweet. I'm too busy! Make your own darn treat!"

I laughed hysterically the first 5 times I read that. Okay, maybe I'm still laughing hysterically every time I read it. So don't be surprised if you get this gift from me one day. I just hope you'll get as much enjoyment out of it as I do. Haha!
