Christmas gift ideas for friends and family

Re: Christmas gift ideas for friends and family

Fudge is lovely Elsa, and so easy; its basically condensed milk and sugar boiled with lashings of Baileys at the last minute and being homemade there are no calories at all

Re: Christmas gift ideas for friends and family

I love home made fudge...I used to make it with the kids when they were younger to give to their grandmas for Christmas. Adding Baileys sounds a brilliant idea...especially if you drink some while making the fudge No calories makes it even better

Re: Christmas gift ideas for friends and family

We always do home made hampers for close family, this year making my own limoncello, red onion chutney, Christmas ginger thins, bailey fudge and Turkish delight. Each year I seem to have to add an extra item - last year was the first for the fudge and ended up making 4 batches as people loved it this years addition is the Turkish Delight, not sure how it will turn out but we will give it a go. I usually pickle onions too but decided my eyes cant take it this year!

While we're on the subject, has anyone seen a good deal for an Apple Ipad 4 with Retina Display (16Gb, Wifi NOT cellular)?
Best I've seen so far is PC World at £359 with £30 cash back...

I would ask here too Elsa -- > Home Computing & Laptops surprising what our posters know

Re: Christmas gift ideas for friends and family

Amazon lists are great! Because my daughter is across the country from all her family, she does Amazon lists for her three kiddies with all sorts from tiny presents upwards.
Once anyone buys anything it comes off the list. It can seem a bit mercenary at first glance, but in reality it's brilliant as otherwise it's impossible to know what toys/clothes they've already got.

This is brilliant idea Elsa, never heard of it before, will be telling friends and relatives about it. It will save people a lot of hard foot treading round shoppes (which I can't do now).



Hope everybody keeping well at your end..
