I Am Thankful For You and Cookies Too
Like many families, around this time of year I start planning and over-analyzing holiday Christmas gifts. In my quest to be a super cool mom, I decided to do an elaborate Thanksgiving Wreath to give Biggie’s teachers. Well, the bombed (it was really hard). I decided I wanted to give thanks to the parent pick-up teacher this year instead. She busts her booty every day to get the kids to their cars, while some of the others dilly dally. I want her to know how much I appreciate her hard work at the end of the day with a small, yet thoughtful gesture….and it cost me less than $5.00!
What you will need:
1 Box Cake Mix ($1.00)
2 Boxes Reese’s Pieces Candy ($2.00)
Large Mason Jar ($1.00)
Decorative Ribbon (leftover from my DIY Family sign)

Super Hard Instructions:
