Wait! It’s holiday season AGAIN??!
I find stocking stuffers to be the most creative and delightful aspect of present giving at the holidays. My children do not restrict me by making requests and stocking stuffers can run the gamut from a delicious chocolate bar to a small treasure buried all the way in the toe of the stocking. Here are some of my favorites this season.
