Leslie, God bless you for continuing with this clever channel despite your personal situation. After nine years of a caregiver to my husband with Lewy Body, I can't concentrate, having to monitor, fix, watch all the time. Enjoy this time while you can. Love and hugs. Texas
I don’t have and never have had a creative thought in my life. I wish I could spend just one day inside your head and take notes on all the creativity that goes on inside it! lol! Seriously, watching you is so fun and amazing. On Sunday’s I come home from church and anxiously watch for 3:00 to come so I can see what awesome new ideas you have for us. As always, I continue to keep you and Jason in my prayers. Y’all are such a wonderful couple. Take care as we head into this joyful holiday season. ♥️🛐♥️ 🎄🎅🏻☃️🎺🥁

You are so kind! Thank you so much! 💗
Lots of fabulous ideas. I have my Mom's recipe box and a couple years ago I made a wallet sized mini album for my 17 year-old Granddaughter who is a very good baker and filled it with reproductions of some of the cards for the best Christmas cookies she made. Since she had passed before my Granddaughter was born at least she has a keepsake of my Mom. Food gifts are always well received, especially if the recipient is one who doesn't like to cook or bake and they are so fun to make. Your presentation ideas take those gifts over the top.
The simmer pot is a great idea! Recommend rosemary vs mint. Mint will go bad in plastic quicker than rosemary

A sprig from a pine tree would last a long time, and smell Christmas-y
SO incredibly awesome ideas. My daughter has an artistic app that allowed her to replicate my late mother’s recipe cards. The most beautiful and thoughtful gift I’ve ever received. I’m going to make up some reindeer hot chocolate cones for my grandsons, 5 & 7. We have the privilege of my daughter and her family flying from Ohio to western CO for Christmas. The boys will LOVE! Thank your for sharing! ❤ PS, a big thank you to J!

Leslie, what beautiful ideas. I love the handwritten recipe idea. One little suggestion is to make a color copy of the original so the yellowed vintage paper shows, I think that would be beautiful. I found a silhouette of my Mother from her school days. I color copied and put it in an oval frame. I made one for each of my siblings. It came out beautiful. I love your zest for whatever it is you're doing. God bless you (and Jason).
I made your stove top potpourri yesterday and gave to my friends at a dinner party. They were so thrilled and amazed at how beautiful they looked! Thank you for such a great idea for my precious friends, you’re amazing, too! I love your happy attitude ❤
Could you share your family recipes too?

You have been so inspiring with all of your ideas! You get my creative ideas flowing! Thanks!
Great thoughts and ideas! You've inspired me to make a lot of these gifts for friends, co-workers, and family! It's been a gloomy rainy day here in Indiana, and you've not only helped me to get into the season but raised my spirits to give. Thankyou. 🙏❤️

You are so welcome! 😊❤️
Yes to a version of these gifts that include baked items.
Some of us need SNOW included in our kits…… lovely idea!!
I made the potpourri and the hot chocolate for my neighbors, and they LOVED it and thought it was very thoughtful. Thank you!!!
Leslie, I made your stovetop potpourri for gifts for my sisters. Of course I had to try it first and it made my house smell soooo good! My sisters and Mom will love it! Thanks for all the creative gift ideas. Love your videos!!
Hey Leslie! These are great ideas ❤ That fudge is SO good too! 😍
I absolutely love your ideas! I adore you and Jason. I recently moved and haven't met the neighbors yet. I'm going to introduce myself with some of your gift ideas. Looking forward to your next one(s). I enjoy baking at the holidays. I agree presentation is everything. I have never considered a beautiful home as self care, but when you said that it resonated with me immediately.
My goodness! These are great ideas. Rudolf would make a great stocking filler.
Great ideas! My brain took a random turn when I heard that Leslie's mil give her a treasured family recipe when she married Jason. It is just a little thing, but speaks to such love, inclusion and trust.
Such great gift ideas! My 2 youngest grandsons would get a kick out of the snowman kit!❤
I love all the cute ideas that are so fun and not much money.
You come across so passionate and genuine in everything you do . I dont post very offen but i do love all you posts and Jasons posts.❤❤❤❤
I'd love the blueberry dessert recipe. I couldn't quite see it. I am about to make the pumpkin bread. 😊 I love family recipes. ❤
I watch your videos as much to see you, as i do the awesome content. I love your sweet character and kind heart. You're a wonderful light when I'm having a bad day ❤
⛄️ I JUST LOVE YOU ⛄️
What great gifts! And your timing is perfect!! I luv Jason's spices and the snowman kit!! Thank you....as always!
I so look forward to these videos!!! As always such good ideas! Love and blessings to you! ❤️🥰
Rudolph was super cute. All great gift ideas and ones that children could also make for friends and family.
I love these! Your videos are always fun.

I am definitely going to do them for my grandchildren . Love your channel .
I’m determined to try the summer pot this season! Such a great idea to use a pipping bag to give as a gift. Thank you for sharing!
Oh my, Leslie, I ADORE this video. Please, tell Jason THANK YOU for sharing his special recipe with us. I am making it for a "Daddy & Son" gift for my hubby and my oldest Son who is 12 .. they LOVE experimenting and creating in the kitchen. What a bonding gift for them as well as some goodness on our table and each "couple" in my family will get a jar and the other ideas, I will be making for the kiddos and the wives in the family. Thank you SO much. Please, I would love for you to do a baking one. My Momma died a few years ago, My Mother in law is literally in her last few days of life, and I do not have anyone to help show me things. Sure I can find things if I Google, but I want to learn TRUE Family things.. I want to make special things for my family too, I just don't have anyone to show me. This would mean so much to this Momma wanting to do things for her family that will be special and can become traditions. This was GREAT!!! Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you Jason, the girls and their families.
Love these ideas and your bedroom is gorgeous! Blessing Leslie, you’re adorable!
Leslie, thank you soo much for such cute and amazing gift ideas !! You’re ( and Jason) so kind to share his meat rub recipe!!! That’s one for a frame in my kitchen !!! I loved the recipe in a frame for the kitchen idea, that is so nice! Love love your channel and love you guys!! Bless you and have a very happy holiday season ! ❤🌴🎄🍾
Definitely please upload more mini gift ideas like this one for all holidays please. ❤ i love it 😊 great job
What a great video! Love the stove scent tubes…what a fabulous idea. Love the sheets but they are so expensive….🤷♀️
Hi Leslie. I just found you and already you have given me several ideas for our Christmas Bazaar in November. I am looking for crafts and food we can make to raise money for all the mission work we do. Most of our ladies say they aren't crafty but these ideas are pretty foolproof and reasonably priced. Thank you for sharing your creative ideas and your adorable personality with us!
Very cute and practical gifts!! Love every one of them!
I had my mother’s Strawberry Cake recipe put on a plate. I’ve had for years so I don’t remember what it cost. I found an add in Good Housekeeping for this. I just love it.
These are wonderful ideas. Thank you.
Great ideas Leslie! Thank you!
Hey, pray you’re feeling well. All the homemade gifts are perfect ❤ Thank you especially for the steak seasoning recipe of Jason’s . I have tried to find a perfect seasoning. I’m going to try your fudge too. My quick fudge is milk chocolate chips and condensed milk in microwave with peanut butter added. Another great video ❤ Tell Jason hello ❤🙏🙏
Yay Holiday baking can’t wait
