I’ve always believed that the best gifts you can give are those that you’ve put your heart and soul into making. I adore receiving homemade gifts – a jar of blackberry jelly from my mom reminding me of Summers back home, or a loaf of my mother-in-laws unique coconut bread. Gifts that your friends and family can’t buy are the best.
