  3. Lovely ideas, Stephanie. My mom always loved recipe books, and family recipe books especially. She loved cooking and hosting, and she once sent all the grandkids a survey of their favorite foods so that when we all got together that summer, she made sure she was making things they loved. The homemade handsoap is a fun idea, too--I've never done that before! Handmade really is something special. Thank you for sharing this post at the Will Blog for Comments #34 linkup for me and for my readers to enjoy. Have a great week & we'll see you next week at #35.
