Special Holiday Meals: Creating a Meaningful Bethlehem Dinner Tradition
Hi friends!
I’ve really been trying to spend more time this year on incorporating new traditions into our lives that will help us bring more focus back to GOD and to JESUS, especially during this time of year.

Delicious Homemade Treats to Gift This Holiday
Do you have a limited budget? Or maybe you want to give gifts, but you aren’t sure what to give?

We love gifting foods for Christmas as everyone loves food… some are special treats that we only make this time of year so that makes them extra nice to give. We made several treats for our 2024 Polar Express Party and many of them were made as gifts to take home and enjoy… they are always a HIT!
Here are some of our favorite gifts to give (and receive):
- Fudge – so many varieties
- Chocolate candies – flavors for everyone!
- Chocolate-dipped pretzel sticks
- Christmas Breads
- Homemade cookies (some of these recipes could be adapted to a ‘gift in a jar’ type recipe.)
- Hot cocoa mix (you can find several cute ways to gift it on Pinterest)
- Sourdough Bread
- Sourdough Boules (the varieties are endless but our recipe has some of our favorite variations)
- Sourdough Stars and Knots (you can use any type of filling you desire… we love using Nutella, Rosella jam, or Chocolate)
- Sourdough cinnamon rolls… so good!
- Smoky Walnuts
