A COVID friendly hot cocoa bar for friends. This tumbler can be filled with a variety of toppings, here's what I put in ours. Oh and PS... the tumblers were just $5 at Walmart.
- 1. Hot Cocoa Packets
- Apple Cider Packets
- Marshmallows
- Peppermints
- Caramels
- Chocolate Cinnamon Bears
- Pirouettes
- Straws to drink under mask, but we decided to give to people to take home.
2020 GAVE US LEMONS.
HOPE THIS MAKE
LIFE A LITTLE BIT SWEETER.
LIFE A LITTLE BIT SWEETER.
Oh how I wish we had a Trader Joe’s! Alas we don’t, so we have never tried their lemon curd which I hear is amazing!!! I made this tag for a friend in Utah to attach to the lemon curd and hand to neighbors and friends for the 2020 holiday season! ❤️ Hopefully you can use it too!
.
Also love the idea to add the dried citrus fruit to the gift tag! An extra special touch! I used the image below to give a visual!
I actually made these as a Thanksgiving card to give to other doctors who send referrals to our office! (I work as the marketing coordinator for a dental practice 😉).
But these Thanksgiving gift tags are also perfect as little gifts from our family to give to others. We love to spend our Sundays baking and making happy kindness deliveries. We prayed about who we felt needed a little bit of cheer! Then we visit the people who come to mind!
”We’re grateful for you” gift tag and free printable. Right click and “save picture as” save it and make it the size you desire!

My good friend is away from her family for a couple of weeks to care for her sick mother. They had meals all set but I wanted to bring something for her husband and four boys to munch on!
They love this homemade salsa and ask for it everytime they come over! I made this cute printable attached it to the bag of chips whipped up some EASY “homemade” salsa and dropped it off for them to enjoy!
Download below and let me share our VERY EASY whip-it-up salsa recipe! It’s sooo yummy! We offer our teachers a small gift for the monthly meals we provide them! Since this month was a taco bar, I thought jarring up our easy peasy homemade salsa would be a great gift to give. Salsa recipe found here.
The printable is linked below. The sheet has 12 to page and can be punched with a 2.25" circle punch.
I tied the jars up with ribbon, baker's twine and my favorite TULLE! LOVE IS IN THE DETAILS!
