On top of the 20 POUNDS of Toffee I have sold for shipping already this month. Now I have some for Christmas! Both are huge. I need to make 250 cookies of various kinds for a December 2nd order. AND a total of 40 POUNDS of Toffee for the week or so before Christmas mailed to 15 different addresses. WHEW! December is going to be a busy month for me! Do you make food gifts for people for holidays? Do you like receiving them?

Congrats on the order. I come from a family that gives cookies for the holidays. It depends on the holiday; but the baking is fun. The reactions of those receiving them is the best.

My mom did a brownie in a jar thing for all of her kids one Christmas. They were awesome.

Geez, that's a big order. Wow that will be some good money generated for your biz. Yes I make cookies for our next door neighbor. And also the mailman. I think they appreciate it. Congrats on the order.

I was also asked to make some rolls for Thanksgiving dinner for someone locally. I just have to let her know what I am going to charge her for a pan of my aunt Annie's rolls.

I both love giving and receiving. I wish I could learn to bake as well so I could just bake my Christmas presents. Congratulations for your sales!

I think that getting homemade gifts is nice. You can tell that people really care and took the time to make something just for you.
