101 Days of Christmas by author Mandi Ehman is a Christmas treasure as the author writes about the true meaning of Christmas. Her book shows how we can all share the Christmas spirit by making gifts and remembering the less fortunate. The things I truly liked about her book was telling about Operation Christmas Child run by Samaritian's Purse. Operation Christmas Child is a ministry that collects shoe boxes filled with practical gifts for needy children. I've personally participated in this project and I found it great fun to select gifts, prepare them for shipping, and knowing that a needy child was not going to be forgotten during Christmastime.As to the book itself you will find plenty of color photos showing how complete different Christmas crafts or recipes. The writing is clear and easy-to-read.Some of the recipes or craft ideas you will find in her book include:Candy Cane CookiesPeppermint MeringuesHomemade Dog BiscuitsHot VanillaCranberry-Apple French Toast CasseroleCandied Orange PeelSugar MintsApple ButterMuddy BuddiesFelt Tree OrnamentsJelly Bean BraceletsCupcake Liner TreeGrapevine WreathCozy CandlesFleece Fringe BlanketFleece Fringe ScarfFelt BowsButton CardsPaper SnowflakesYou will also find interactive links to craft patterns.There is an interactive table of contents making navigation easy.Recommend.Penmouse
