Every year my husband forces me to write out a Christmas list to give to him. I resist. He already takes very good care of me. I am embarrassed to make a list of “things I want.” I also don’t want to put the brain power into it, but he says it helps him. I warn him that as soon as I begin brainstorming, the list will keep growing! He says I had better get busy.
As I was working on this assignment this week, I remembered homemade gifts that both my husband and my father have given me for my gardening activities. A couple of them are on the list again because they have been used until they are falling apart. Others of them are nice to have in multiples. A few of my favorite past garden-related gifts were purchased, but make the list here because they are used so often.
