December
It’s that
time of the year again ... frantic search for gifts – eating wonderful and rich
food ...
For this
holiday season – if you are going to give gifts, try and make something
yourself. I have some smashing ideas on my previous issues – have a look
and surprise your family/friends. Bake a batch of rusks, or cookies – or
make my ‘no bake cookies’ (http://www.xcentricideas.co.za/images/2009/XCentric%20Ideas%202009%20Issue%2010.pdf)
– and wrap them nicely. Look
below for the previous issues on gift wrapping and gift ideas (at bottom of email).

Don’t
forget to peek at my previous issue of how to festively, gloriously and
gob smacking easy you can set your table – with items from your house,
be it
from the kids rooms, kitchen or library.

The
flavored water issue is also a ‘must do’ this season. It just looks so
good on your table and is healthy too.Flavored water ideas (www.xcentricideas.co.za - 2012 - Issue 11)
And why not
knit a beanie for someone you care about?Knitting beanies for charity (www.xcentricideas.co.za - 2013 - Issue 9)
I grew up
with home baked bread, so I adore it! Why not bake a ‘no yeast bread’
(www.xcentricideas.co.za - 2011, issue 9) as a gift?
And if
you’re interesting in small quantities of homemade jam, made in the microwave
in less than 30 minutes – here's a few to try out. I’ve
made soooo many jams over the years and think that it’s just the perfect little
gift.

PS:
For the new year, I’m thinking of doing savory ice creams ... have made a
Bovril and cheese ice cream yesterday ... quite good.
