Homemade Christmas Goodies!

December 12, 2011 by Michelle Hinckley |

I’ve been visiting the salad bar at
Whole Foods Grocery Store quite a bit lately.
I always grab an extra to-go salad container for sharing…
(my boys always say they don’t want any…
until they see me eating and suddenly I have none left). 
Over the past while I’ve collected a few un-used containers.
Here’s how I made use of them.
1. Homemade cookies (I’ve found this recipe to be the very best).
2. More chocolate treats bagged and tied with ribbon.
3. Arrange neatly in to-go salad box.
4. Box it up and tie with silk ribbon.
Chocolate goodies for teachers, co-workers, neighbors, or whoever.
