Since BJ and I are both on Injured Reserve right now, we’re trying hard to be creative with our holiday gift giving this year.

I’ve never been one to buy savings bonds or life insurance for kids anyway; most years, I try to shop at the grocery store for the folks on my gift list.   BJ’s mother, who is diabetic, is a serious sweet lover, so we always try to get her a nice assortment of sugar-free candies.  The grillers can usually expect a rack of baby back ribs or a couple of T-bones.  You get the idea.  And it’s always appreciated since everyone has to eat.

Anyway, I’m thinking it’s probably going to be something homemade this Christmas.  I guess it’s time to start the heavy duty baking!
