Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 That is a really good idea. I am going to the good samaritan this weekend or week coming. Its a big church run thrift store with all kind of things. But they have a section of tins you can put cookies in ect. Im also going to check out the mugs. Everyone loves hot cocoa and tea when its cold so ill see what i can find. You can always get a box of tea and hot cocoa at decent price and make the cups like you said. I actually wrote out a list of what were gonna do for ppl on our 'list' but going to add these cups filled with tea, cocoa and maybe even treats! thanks!!!! rachael Moderator > > > In a message dated 11/11/2006 3:41:19 A.M.
