Can you believe it’s already December???
I used to roll my eyes whenever another mom bragged that all of her Christmas shopping was complete before most of us had even started, but I now realize that the only way to truly enjoy December in the midst of all of the American consumerism is to get it done early. I hate how Christmas gift giving has become an expectation rather than a pleasant surprise, but what can you do? I just try to get people gifts that are thoughtful and useful, then move on with my life.
For example, I love giving books and kitchen tools. They’re practical and equip people to cook for themselves, thus improving their health. And what better gift is there than good health?…
