My FAVORITE cookbook is Rumford Complete Cook Book 1st printed in 1908 (last print 1944) before there were processed, prepackaged mixes and foods. In preface states these recipes were collected back as far as 1790 for its high nutrient value.
You know when the economy is bad people stop shopping at malls or even Walmart and go to thrift and dollar stores. I noticed during the Obummer years in my town we got a new dollar store every 2nd block and Walmart parking lots were pretty much empty. Now in his 3rd term the same applies.
I was once asked by a lady what can she gift to teachers, neighbors, co-workers etc and I suggested 'gifts in a jar'. She told me that went over very well. I got some once that looked so pretty I kept it as decor instead of making them.
For those of you who have local farmers, a big deal this year is real honey. That in a jar or tin with sample teabags. I've also made my own tea mixes with orange or lemon rind especially for cold season.
