You are probably going to think I am crazy, but I am thinking about Christmas gifts today. And I am asking you ladies, well because you all rock.
So I trying to think of ideas for my coworkers. I work with about 20 people and last year I received gifts from many of them so I feel kind of obligated to give back. At the same time I don't want to spend a ton of money. I usually do make Christmas cookies, but on the receiving end I rarely eat them because I get so inundated with sweets! Not to mention I work with almost all women, most of who are at some stage of a diet. Any creative ideas?
FWIW I work at a vet clinic so they are all animals lovers, but not all book lovers

Good Luck :-)

Last year I made home made handscrub stuff and put it in fancy mason jars. It was super cheap and everyone loved them.
I'm probably no help, but I make fudge for my coworkers. But, I only give it to 4 coworkers.
Be careful about how many gifts you hand out because you will then feel obligated every year.
You could also bring in something for the whole group to enjoy. (fruit tray, veggie tray, etc...)
Also, you can make homemade vegetable soup & put in mason jars.

And yeah... Thankfully I work in a very small office so my gift #s shouldn't grow. But like I said I was the only one who didn't bring something last year. Between that and my position I feel obligated to do something for them.
