Thanks-Giving Day 19 & Blessing Mix

I'm thankful for Adobe Photoshop and having the ability to do so many different, fun things. YAY!

I've been a little busy making some tasty hostess gifts for our guests this Thanksgiving. It took me a few days, but I put together the final touch last night. I made enough Blessing Mix for an army. I ended up making 43 gifts. Shew! I got this idea from Caramel Potatoes.   I wanted to put my own spin on this treat.  I thought it would be nice to stick the bag full of mix inside a paper cornucopia.  I didn't like the idea of putting Hershey's Kisses inside the bag with the rest of my mix, so I place a little double sided tape on the bottom and stuck it on top the bag.  I think it turned out nice.  After Halloween, I couldn't find any candy corn.  It's the only thing that's missing from this mix, so if you are planning on making this next year - BUY the CANDY CORN ahead of time.

Thanks. Had fun putting them together. Gave my first few away today, they really seemed to like them. My house is beginning to look like a store with all the baskets of goodies lined up on my table. LOL! I still have sugar scrub to put together.

Thanks for the holiday wishes. We hope y'all have a fantastic Thanksgiving. We are expecting 20+ people here beginning at noon Thursday. Yay! I love hosting a party. Lots of Love sent your way!
