This could be the gift you are giving this year!! An Elf Kit!

One of my most favorite ideas is An Elf Kit!!  I found this cute box at Hobby lobby and painted it up. (Don't look too close, some obvious touch ups are needed) Then into the box is added all the things our family needs for Christmas morning like a screwdriver for the battery hatches that are screwed shut, a box cutter, and wire snips, trash bags for wrapping paper, batteries etc.  Once it has what we need it goes under the tree with the rest of the presents waiting for its time to shine Christmas Morning.  Here are some suggestions of things you could put inside it and also a poem I wrote if it is being used as a gift. 
loves to all!!

    What a great tip! I remember when we were kids how awful it was to get some great toy but have no batteries for it. (And back then you couldn't even find a gas station open on Christmas.) Super idea!

    Thanks for joining me for Friday Favorites!

Copycat Stouffers Grandma's Chicken and Rice

Indulge in a homemade masterpiece that outshines the frozen aisle. Tender chicken breast, perfectly seasoned and seared to lock in juices, combined with fluffy rice, all enveloped in a rich, creamy semi-homemade sauce. Each bite is a symphony of flavors dancing on your taste buds. This dish is comfort food at its finest, reminiscent of Grandma's kitchen. Say goodbye to the freezer section; this homemade version of Stouffer's Grandma's Chicken and Rice is a culinary triumph you'll crave time and time again!  PS this recipe makes a lot! You can get an 8x8 and a 9x13 out of it. It would be perfect to take the extra to a friend in need or to freeze for later.
