Hmmmm... This gets me thinking along the lines of Limoncello!
Or Brandied Fruit again.

For the Chiro's office, they will get another basket this year with jars
of Jam and mini-bread loaves. :-)
Included for drinks will be Martinelli's sparkling cider...

That reminds me........ about 3 years ago (IIRC) I did a whole bunch of
different tasting Truffles. Might have to resurrect all the recipes and do
it again.

Hmmmmmmmmm, quite a few people I know like lemony things, and I was just
thinking that I could use the lemon mix I use for the Lemon Tart I make.,
and just put it in a jar instead of a pastry case....... Hmmmmmmmmm.

Thanks! I have to say that when Charlotte brings over truffles and/or
lemon curd, it's always appreciated. :-)

Hi Gloria,

I have often made food gifts for holidays and birthdays. I think this
year I'm going to do gifts in jars. Cookies, bean soups and such.

Great recipes. I appreciate the kind of sharing those mentioned stuff of
ideas here . Nothing makes a gift more personal than taking the time to
choose something suited specifically for the recipient. What could be
more pleasing to show your sentiment than a gift from the kitchen? Your
kitchen gift doesn't necessarily have to be a huge time investment.
Thanks for the great idea.

The lemon curd/tart filling should be refrigerated, no? (Along with
some other items on the OP's list.)

The tart with its filling *should* be refrigerated, but can survive for
quite some time outside the fridge.

The curd in a jar .... samesame. The jarred stuff will keep for up to a
month (or more) in the fridge.

As for the other items, the truffles definitely need a fridge, especially
if it's warm, as it is during our Christmas.
