Leslie, God bless you for continuing with this clever channel despite your personal situation. After nine years of a caregiver to my husband with Lewy Body, I can't concentrate, having to monitor, fix, watch all the time. Enjoy this time while you can. Love and hugs. Texas
I don’t have and never have had a creative thought in my life. I wish I could spend just one day inside your head and take notes on all the creativity that goes on inside it! lol! Seriously, watching you is so fun and amazing. On Sunday’s I come home from church and anxiously watch for 3:00 to come so I can see what awesome new ideas you have for us. As always, I continue to keep you and Jason in my prayers. Y’all are such a wonderful couple. Take care as we head into this joyful holiday season. ♥️🛐♥️ 🎄🎅🏻☃️🎺🥁
I watch your videos as much to see you, as i do the awesome content. I love your sweet character and kind heart. You're a wonderful light when I'm having a bad day ❤
I made your stove top potpourri yesterday and gave to my friends at a dinner party. They were so thrilled and amazed at how beautiful they looked! Thank you for such a great idea for my precious friends, you’re amazing, too! I love your happy attitude ❤
Leslie, what beautiful ideas. I love the handwritten recipe idea. One little suggestion is to make a color copy of the original so the yellowed vintage paper shows, I think that would be beautiful. I found a silhouette of my Mother from her school days. I color copied and put it in an oval frame. I made one for each of my siblings. It came out beautiful. I love your zest for whatever it is you're doing. God bless you (and Jason).
SO incredibly awesome ideas. My daughter has an artistic app that allowed her to replicate my late mother’s recipe cards. The most beautiful and thoughtful gift I’ve ever received. I’m going to make up some reindeer hot chocolate cones for my grandsons, 5 & 7. We have the privilege of my daughter and her family flying from Ohio to western CO for Christmas. The boys will LOVE! Thank your for sharing! ❤ PS, a big thank you to J!
Lots of fabulous ideas. I have my Mom's recipe box and a couple years ago I made a wallet sized mini album for my 17 year-old Granddaughter who is a very good baker and filled it with reproductions of some of the cards for the best Christmas cookies she made. Since she had passed before my Granddaughter was born at least she has a keepsake of my Mom. Food gifts are always well received, especially if the recipient is one who doesn't like to cook or bake and they are so fun to make. Your presentation ideas take those gifts over the top.
I came back to this video from watching it last year as I plan to make those framed recipes for some loved ones. So simple and inexpensive. I can’t wait to do this for this Xmas season. Thank you for giving such a sentimental gift idea.
Oh my, Leslie, I ADORE this video. Please, tell Jason THANK YOU for sharing his special recipe with us. I am making it for a "Daddy & Son" gift for my hubby and my oldest Son who is 12 .. they LOVE experimenting and creating in the kitchen. What a bonding gift for them as well as some goodness on our table and each "couple" in my family will get a jar and the other ideas, I will be making for the kiddos and the wives in the family. Thank you SO much. Please, I would love for you to do a baking one. My Momma died a few years ago, My Mother in law is literally in her last few days of life, and I do not have anyone to help show me things. Sure I can find things if I Google, but I want to learn TRUE Family things.. I want to make special things for my family too, I just don't have anyone to show me. This would mean so much to this Momma wanting to do things for her family that will be special and can become traditions. This was GREAT!!! Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you Jason, the girls and their families.
Leslie, I made your stovetop potpourri for gifts for my sisters. Of course I had to try it first and it made my house smell soooo good! My sisters and Mom will love it! Thanks for all the creative gift ideas. Love your videos!!
Great thoughts and ideas! You've inspired me to make a lot of these gifts for friends, co-workers, and family! It's been a gloomy rainy day here in Indiana, and you've not only helped me to get into the season but raised my spirits to give. Thankyou. 🙏❤️
I absolutely love your ideas! I adore you and Jason. I recently moved and haven't met the neighbors yet. I'm going to introduce myself with some of your gift ideas. Looking forward to your next one(s). I enjoy baking at the holidays. I agree presentation is everything. I have never considered a beautiful home as self care, but when you said that it resonated with me immediately.
Great ideas! My brain took a random turn when I heard that Leslie's mil give her a treasured family recipe when she married Jason. It is just a little thing, but speaks to such love, inclusion and trust.
Leslie you are a blessing to so many! Thank you my friend for these adorable ideas. I pray the sustaining peace and wisdom from Jesus over you and Jason 💕
Hi Leslie. I just found you and already you have given me several ideas for our Christmas Bazaar in November. I am looking for crafts and food we can make to raise money for all the mission work we do. Most of our ladies say they aren't crafty but these ideas are pretty foolproof and reasonably priced. Thank you for sharing your creative ideas and your adorable personality with us!
Leslie, thank you soo much for such cute and amazing gift ideas !! You’re ( and Jason) so kind to share his meat rub recipe!!! That’s one for a frame in my kitchen !!! I loved the recipe in a frame for the kitchen idea, that is so nice! Love love your channel and love you guys!! Bless you and have a very happy holiday season ! ❤🌴🎄🍾
Hey, pray you’re feeling well. All the homemade gifts are perfect ❤ Thank you especially for the steak seasoning recipe of Jason’s . I have tried to find a perfect seasoning. I’m going to try your fudge too. My quick fudge is milk chocolate chips and condensed milk in microwave with peanut butter added. Another great video ❤ Tell Jason hello ❤🙏🙏
I made the simmer pots and they smelled lovely, just like Christmas. I made a vegan version of the candy cane shaped pastry and it turned out so cute. I purchased the Murdle book you suggested as gifts for my adult children. Thank you so much for the ideas! Merry Christmas!
You just convinced me to get this Brooklinen set! We've been wanting to get a new duvet and cover (and of course matching sheets) instead of our "original interior decorator" bedspread/comforter for SO long. And, I'm probably going to make ALL of these gift ideas!
I had my mother’s Strawberry Cake recipe put on a plate. I’ve had for years so I don’t remember what it cost. I found an add in Good Housekeeping for this. I just love it.
These gift ideas are so fun and very thoughtful. I believe anyone who receives one would feel loved and special ❤ I especially loved the meat rub recipe because of the way your face lights up when you talk about Jason. It sounds delicious and my husband would really love it.
You’re the best, these are all fabulous ideas, I really loved your mom’s and Jason’s mom’s recipes - framed, so special. Thank you for sharing, so many great ideas! Much love, xoxo ❤️🎄
This is one of the BEST gift idea videos I have ever seen!! I want to do everything!! So perfect! Thank you SO much for taking the time to share with us! Would love to see the baking video as well!☺️❤️
Thank you for your thoughtful enthusiastic ideas. I love all of them especially our dear mothers special recipes 💕 please continue to share more cooking ideas, I tried your mock cocktail punch with ginger beer-yummy.
Very inventive! I especially like the simmering potpourri idea coupled with the cocoa...so inexpensive but warm-feeling. Thanks for taking the time to share such great affordable ideas! (Ps: you are a phenomenal caregiver and information-sharer on your other channel. I so appreciate what you do. You are a blessing to Jason, and a help to many others.) 💞
Leslie, I ❤ your videos! My mom is in a nursing home. Any ideas of gifts for the staff? Last year I did a tumbler w/ candy and a lottery ticket! Any ideas are appreciated! 😘
We've been making that fudge for years! We call it "Microwave Fudge". Best fudge I've ever ate! So fast and EASY! I have found, that most of the time, the simplest things are the best! 😊
This is the most helpful and practical gift idea video I've seen. Loved your ideas. Please keep going and share your ideas in another video. Baking stuff is always welcomed. Thanks again and God Bless!
Lovely ideas. i am going to share them with my daughters who are on a Christmas budget. I might put the hot chocolate bag is nice in a mug to fancy it up a bit. The peanut butter fudge looks yummy! Another great recipe you might also like is made with sweetened condensed milk, butter and melted chocolate. One more ingredient, but I do like the buttery richness. Thanks! 💜
Leslie, thank you so much for sharing these wonderful Christmas ideas! Will look forward to seeing more of them. I work outside the home so quick and easy is always helpful when you want to share with others. Love & Blessings
Wonderful ideas Leslie! You always come up with the cutest items. I love the ingredients you use in Jasons food rub.....sounds delicious. I love the smell of cloves. What sweet little gifts! Perfect for anyone! Blessings for a beautiful Holy Holidays and hoping your family gets together with the grandchildren as well.
Great ideas. I'm going to try the adult simmer pot idea for my kids. I'm not baking this year so I'm excited to try new things. Thank you for your ideas.

Would you share the name of the artistic app she uses? Thank you
@@pag9228 Procreate Pocket. There’s an app for phone and one for iPad.

The simmer pot is a great idea! Recommend rosemary vs mint. Mint will go bad in plastic quicker than rosemary
A sprig from a pine tree would last a long time, and smell Christmas-y
