The teacher of my 3rd grader, will be receiving a jar of homemade candy apple jelly. I crocheted a round dishcloth in variegated cotton with red, green and white colors, and wrapped it around the jar.
The dishcloth ended up larger than I thought, but you know they always shrink after washing. It fit perfect around the bottom of a half pint jar of homemade jelly, and served nicely for "wrapping" paper. I hope the teacher enjoys both items.
We have also started our holiday baking. The kids are doing most of it considering I am sick, and so are many of the other kids. I have one daughter who has taken over the candy making and is doing a wonderful job. She helped make toffee, and made buckeyes for the family Christmas.
Toffee starts with a lot of butter, but ends up tasting so delicious. I think this year's batch was the best batch ever made so far.
My daughter did a great job. It really helps to have help.
Could you post the toffee recipe? Looks delish!
