Has anyone started their holiday shopping?

I have. I have purchased gifts for my mother, sister, nephew, and niece. I feel better when I start early and spread the expenses out over time. I know what I'm getting most of the rest of the people on my list, except for my brother-in-law, who is always the hardest.

I find neighbor gifts the hardest to come up with. I made bacon jam last year and that was a hit. Just not sure how much cooking time I'll have this year.

If I were smart, I'd order the younger nieces and nephews stuff online and be done with it. Those are always time consuming because they are still in the toys and games stage but I try to come up with something they don't have.
