    For anyone over age, even if they don't drink, they can make these for others g

    last year I got some glittery shoe boxes, some festive paper carrier bags, some bags of brown sugar, some squidgy things of honey, some jars of lemon slices and some bottles of bells

    put the swag into the shoe box then put it all in the bag, with instructions on how to make a hot toddy.

    4. Ginvent Calendar


    She has bought me (only cause she made me help her order it):
    1. Tenor Ukulele
    2. Uke case.


    I have also asked for:
    1. Cast iron flat griddle pan
    2. 4l Alembic Copper Still
    3. Fire Bellows
    4. Old style shaving set
    5. Garden tool sharpeners
    6. Gardening gloves




    Any of that lot any use as an idea?

    Buy yourself a nice shiny new iPhone 6S. Give the box to the baby. She'll love it.
