My July this summer is my busiest month, so I am not here as much as I would like too...
But yesterday I had a meeting at the library and got there a little early so I browsed and checked out some Christmas books and magazine to get me inspired.
I checked out:
Food Gifts 2010- a Better Homes and Garden special magazine type thingy
Southern Living Christmas 2010- somehow I never got that one last year when it came out
Family Fun Best of Christmas Crafts and Ideas
The Food Gifts one had lots of recipes I marked to try! Not all of them have to be food gifts although there are a lot of gift in a jar type ideas. I picked the following recipes to just try:
Gingerbread Scone Mix
Spiced Oatmeal Shortbread Wedges
Fennel Seed Wine Crackers
Bacon, Green Onion and Buttermilk Scones
Lemony Glazed Shortbread Bars
Butter Mint Cookies
Sometime this month- head to your local library and check out some Christmas idea books to browse through and inspire you!
