I was making a point but I almost forgot...Grow something or create something and make someone's day! I started by planting Basil seeds in Peat Pellets.
Once those seeds grow into tiny plants I'll transplant them into a small decorated container and give someone a Gift that Keeps on Giving! Before I give the gift, I'll attach a recipe card for my favorite Homemade Pesto. Yum!
Here are some ideas:
