Cookie Cutter Gift Tags (WFMW)
Today’s Works for Me Wednesday theme is to share a holiday tip or gift idea… I had so many ideas that it was hard to choose just one. I don’t always remember to participate in the themed editions at the beginning of each month, but I couldn’t miss out on sharing a holiday tip!

By roasting my own almonds, I have the opportunity to get a bit creative with fun flavors.
