Here’s what you’ll need:
Leg warmers
Hair bands
Rice
Essential oil

I got everything needed except the essential oil at the 99 cent store. So depending on the oil you use 2 neck wraps will run you under $3!

The shopping was the hardest part. Just tie off one end with a hair tie. Fill with rice add a few drops of oil and tie the other end off. Voila! 2 presents while your neighbor is standing at the door with their gift to you!

Great oils to use are Balance, Serenity, Lavender, Citrus Bliss or whatever tickles your fancy!

These can be stored in the freezer to use as a cold pack or heated gently in the microwave.

Essential oils can be ordered from the following site:

Instant Fudge

Well it’s not quite instant. But if you have 5 minutes you’ve totally got this!

There are only 3 ingredients.
1 – 12oz bag semisweet chocolate chips
1 – 14oz can of condensed milk
1 tsp of vanilla extract
Optional 2-3 drops essential oil (Orange or Peppermint oils are good choices)

Ok, so just dump it all in a glass bowl. Toss it all in the microwave on high for about 20 seconds. Pull it out of the microwave and stir it up. Is should have started melting. At this point you really need to watch it. You want to heat it up until it’s almost melted. The final melting should occur while you are stirring. Put it back in the microwave for another 15 seconds. When you pull it out this should be it.

Now you can stir it until it’s smooth and either spread it out on a wax paper and let it cool or smooth into an 8″x8″ butter greased glass pan.

You can always whip out your essential oils and add 2-3 drops of wild orange or peppermint oils. Please take care and only use oils fit for consumption. 

Enjoy!
