A homemade Christmas

We are done with our preparation for tomorrow. We have always kept Christmas low key when it comes to presents but the children like to give something to family. This year we planned to give everyone useful eco-friendly gifts - right down to the wrapping paper.

We have 21 people to bless with a gift and almost all of them are getting one or the other gift:



Ladies get a basket with homemade blueberry jam, homemade soap with rose-geranium fragrance, homemade Greek shortbread cookies and a packet of organic vegetable seeds.



Gents get a basket with homemade hot chocolate, homemade soap with Ylang-Ylang fragrance, a pkt of Greek shortbread and some organic droewors.


So to all my readers of this humble little blog - may the peace of the Lord Jesus rest on you all tomorrow as you know that He came to set your free.
