My aunt gifts her nieces and nephews with loaves of homemade cinnamon bread every Christmas. Fortunately, my parents live nearby and my mom doesn’t charge us (whew–thanks, mom), but we have close friends who don’t have family nearby and would LOVE a gift of free babysitting. Baked Goods. Babysitting.
