I feel like sometimes a homemade gift means a whole lot more than a store bought one. Just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's always valuable. Those 4k TVs, Playstations, video games, tablets, gift cards all go away in time, but homemade gifts from the heart do not! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!
