I need to get some sort of gift for a friends birthday (who lives nearby) and for a kid of my extended family (lives further away).

Do you have any recommendations for gifts that go along with sorta frugal lifestyle? I can’t think of anything right now (pressure is on, birthday 1 is tomorrow)

      One-upping this. Learning to make bread even before the pandemic hit made me become regarded as a demi-god by anyone that had the opportunity to taste my sourdough or learn from me to make even just scones.

      Agreed. The year my sister lost her job, she made me a basket of gingerbread for Christmas. I enjoyed that so much more than anything she spent money on.

      I still ask for gingerbread for Christmas, but now it’s mostly because she gets grumpy about having to bake and it’s funny.
