Gift Giving Book Review: Quick gifts of good taste

I wanted to start off this second blog post with a book review.

Quick gifts for good taste by a shit load of writers:


This book is actually a really good book if you are trying to figure out things to give to people. In my case, I don't know what to give to a few Friends down the road that are neighbors. So I started last year making gifts like baklava and stuff.

I picked up this book for a dolor at a thrift store in town and already love it!


While most books have long, expensive recipes that make you want to face plant into the ground.This book has recipes like, mocha coffee. A simple mixture of cocoa powder, how coacoa, and instant coffee ground together. Each recipe comes with little ideas of how to package the gift and send it to people.

All in One Week

This past week has been crazy! First of all, Last Saturday I went to see Santa with my nephews. My mother took photos with her finger in the way. (thanks mom). I took two of my ferrets to see him and they more or less slept on my chest.

 Than of course, My laptop started to break at the hinge. Now I have to carefully open the top and hold it up with a book or something.

Or Simba. >.<

My L,Z, and a few other major keys stick too.


And one of the few things you will learn is, Cookies are not my forte. I cant make a batch to save my life. I keep telling myself, no more!, yet I just keep making cooks. -.-

My latest batch came from a pack of cookie mix. You just add butter and water.

Do NOT. I repeat. Do NOT get this stuff. It comes out somewhat edible and smells awful.

Tasted okay.

Though if looks could kill, I would of died.









Even the mix looked like a bunch of....O.O.

In the end, I did get a decent cookie taste. We ate them like starving cookie monsters, burnt and all.
