One thing I love to give at Christmas are Home-Made Gifts. Each and every year I make something for my close family, last year it was diaries, this year it was gingerbread men and chocolate boxes.
Christmas can be an expensive time and we pretty much cant afford to give expensive presents as much as we'd like to, especially with a special needs kiddy in our home.
Home-made goodies is the one way I like to show my family how much we care about them. It takes time, preparation and effort.
First I purchased the tins from the cheapy store, then I purchased the gingerbread cutters and ingredients. Then I got baking ! The receipe I used was this one Gingerbread Man Receipe , and I can attest that its a good one, every good chef should taste test ;)
To finish I placed a generous amount of gingerbread into the tins and then wrapped the tin and a box of chocolates with some nice ribbon.
I can assure you that gingerbread men, women and dogs were harmed during the process (nom nom).
