This past Sunday Riley and I made rocky road candy for her
teachers' Christmas gifts. It has become a tradition to make it around the
holidays for gifts. Everyone always loves it and it is so easy- another great
food item to make with kids! We had an older neighbor friend of ours come over
and she made gifts for her teachers with us too- so fun! I always get lots of
requests for the recipe and thought I would share it with you. I found the cute
buckets and baggies at Walmart. They always have a good selection of tins and
containers for food giving at a reasonable price. We had a great time delivering holiday cheer
to her school teachers and Sunday school teacher on Monday morning! Have fun
making your own memories and remembering those that work so hard for our kids
during the year!
