Best gifts, are home made goodies. Whatever you make best. Candy, cookie, jar sauce, just spend one afternoon[a bout the same a mount of time it takes to shop]make a huge batch, and put in pretty containers, can't go wrong, everyone likes to try some Else's treats.

This is a really pretty gift that looks expensive, is thoughtful and costs very little.

Go to either WalMart or Card & Party or Hobby Lobby and buy the small royal blue gift sacks (about the size of a lunch sack). Buy enough for everyone on your gift list (these are usually sold for about 25 cents a piece. Next - Buy a package of the white or silver glittered snowflake ornaments that they sell usually a dozen for about 2.00.

Go to Dollar General or Family Dollar or Dollar Tree - and buy a box of peanut brittle (1 lb.) for each person on your list. These usually run a dollar a piece. Also buy a roll of silver ribbon again - a dollar.

Now - this is the cool part. Open each box of brittle, and it will be wrapped in a plain silver bag. Put a bag of brittle in each royal blue bag, fold down the top a couple of folds and then staple in the middle. Now punch a couple of holes at the top of the bag approximately 1 inch a part. Thread a small piece of ribbon (enough to tie a small bow) through the two holes, place one snowflake ornament on the ribbon and tie in a bow. The snowflake will hang down in front of the blue bag.

I guarantee they look like a million dollars - and everyone always raves over them. And - they cost about $1.50 a piece.

I hope that helps.

Another idea that is even cheaper, but is equally cute. Buy a box of the Lil' Debbie individually wrapped gingerbread men - which is usually 1.09 for a dozen. Wrap a small piece of plaid ribbon around each gingerbread man's neck (like a scarf) and tie. (Leave the gingerbread men wrapped.) Next I place a small red heart sticker over the chest of each gingerbread men. Put these on the front envelope of a nice Christmas card - and that again is a very sweet gift for your child to give to teachers - or you give to co-workers. (remember it's the though that counts)

How about a small basket or box, maybe decorated on the outside with Christmas paper, with goodies inside. Bake some Christmas cookies and include a Christmas card with each basket, with a short, personal note to each person.

Personal effort and attention like that has great meaning.

Go to Walmart and buy those little round glass bowls with the ruffled edges, fill with potpourri, or candy, and tie a ribbon around the top. Follow the link below for a picture of them. They are only about .50 cents at Walmart.

You could get craft books from the public library and make some gifts.
You could give all of them a Christmas ornament. I've done that the last 2 years for my large family. I order from Oriental Trading Co. and get an ornament with the year on it or with space for their name to be marked on it. They come in dozens for $14.95 or there abouts.

The best gift is the gift of Reason:-

CHRISTMAS IS LIKE SANTA CLAUS

You know the Fatman is a fake and a lie, but you go along with it anyway, as you deceive the kids and make them future liars to their own kids.

The Dictionary of the Bible says that: By the 5th. Century, the Church (of Rome) had concerned itself enough to have set December 25 as the date of Jesus’ birth. This had been the date of the Festival of the Sun God Zeus and to the Christians a greater light was come, Jesus Christ, the true light of the World.

Fact is - the Sun God is Zeus, and Jesus is really Jezeus, and the Romans worshipped Zeus, and you can see Barnabas being called Zeus by the Priests of Zeus in the Acts of the Apostles 14:12-13, in the Bible. Mithra was another son of Zeus, but Je-Zeus was Zeus come down as his own son, which made him strictly a Roman God.

Sunday is also the day that was set aside for worship of the Sun God (Zeus) by the Romans.

The Winter Solstice gives us the shortest day in the year, December 22, as the birth of the new Sun, so Rome shifted it to the 25 December in order to celebrate the Feast of the Circumcision eight days later, on 1 January, in accepting Jezeus Christos as the Living God of the Sun risen from the dead.

Zeus and the Fathers of Christianity did not know there was a Southern Hemisphere that did not share the Sun God Zeus or his four seasons, or his twelve disciples or twelve months of the year with the Northern Hemisphere, and it is for this reason that Australia celebrates Christmas twice each year, with the White Christmas falling in June but is called Christmas in July since they know it is a lie.

So Christmas and Christianity were as ignorant of the nature of the Planet as was Santa Claus of the South Pole, and just as the Pope was afraid that Christopher Columbus might fall off the flat Planet in his attempt to reach India traveling westwards, so were Santa Claus and Zeus afraid to go below the Planet and into the Fires of Hell.

When Pope John Paul ii declared the Shroud of Turin a medieval fake after having it scientifically carbon-dated in 1988, he failed to point out that the Bible describes the use of two shrouds, with one for the head and another for the “body” of the 100 lbs of aloes and myrrh, the other perfect hoax.

TRY SOME HONESTY THIS YEAR.
EXPOSE THE FRAUD OF SANTA THE UNHOLY.

BRING THE TRUTH OF THE MESSIAH FROM THE QURAN TO LIGHT SO THAT MEN WHO ARE BORN BLIND MIGHT SEE THAT THE ONE TRUE GOD CAN HAVE NO SON OR NO PARTNER
.
HE IS ONE, HE ALWAYS WAS, HE IS, AND HE ALWAYS WILL BE!

PEACE ON EARTH AND GOODWILL TO ALL OF HUMANITY!

Was it Jesus who said, “Think not that I am come to send Peace on Earth. I came not to send Peace but a Sword.” Matthew 10:34

So! Christmas is like Santa Claus, and so is the naming of the baby Jesus since the Gospels exclude the mother from this false naming of the child and the prophecy of Isaiah 7:14, states that the mother shall name the child “Immanuel”.
