She says, "Have each guest bring a wrapped gift for the gift exchange. Everyone sits in a circle while a narrator reads the following story. Each time the words LEFT, RIGHT, or WRIGHT are mentioned, the gifts are passed in that direction. Each person will keep the gift they are holding at the end of the story." It's a lot of fun and you can print our the story to use at your party. Italian Biscotti Holiday time is the best season for cookies! Families usually have their favorites, whether it's chocolate chip, shortbread or pinwheels. Here's an Italian cookie recipe that I bake thorough out the year. Biscottis are double baked cookies that are fabulous with milk or any warm beverage- perfect for dunking! For Christmas I dip the ends of the cookies in melted semi-sweet chocolate and allow to harden. They are barely in the kitchen for two days after that! They make great gifts when you combine them with the Cheerful Cookie Box!! Great Gift & Fundraising Idea Brownies in a Jar Gift Everyone loves brownies. Brownies are the perfect gift and you'll love our Brownies in a Jar. All you need is a one quart jar that you can pick up at your local craft store. Just take the ingredients for the Double Fudge Brownie Mix and fill the jar. You can make the jar festive by using a colorful ribbon to tie on the recipe instructions along with a note from you. Using a small piece of material you can also cover the lid of the jar add the ribbon and you have "wrapped" your gift! Irish Cream Fudge This week's Dessert of the Week features Irish Cream Fudge.

Also nuts are optional and if you choose to add them, any type your like will work well with this recipe. Sit-A-Pon a gift for the gardening mom The Sit-A-Pon is created by using very simple household materials; old plastic tablecloth, magazines, and yarn. I first made a Sit-A-Pon when I was a Girl Scout. I still remember that pink and white soft square that protected my knees while gardening as a small girl. The Sit-A-Pon can be personalized just for your mom. You can use water proof magic markers to write her name and her favorite colored yarn to sew the edging.

How Can I Save Money on Birthday Gifts and Parties? by Jonni McCoy When it's time for a special occasion, we tend to throw out the budget. Some of us even resort to using our credit cards for these events since we had not planned for them in our budget. With a little foresight and creativity, we can handle these gift-giving days as well as we handle our daily expenses. Valentine Hug Box & Cookies Yes, it is a craft, yes it is a recipe, but the best part of it is the personal touch. The giving of yourself. This Valentine Package should be made for anyone you care about- this could be grandparents, a sick friend or anyone who could use a hug. Look around your neighborhood. Look into your own family. If a class is going to create this craft think about a small group that you would like to donate these treasures to. All will be brightened by your efforts; your artistry; your art.

Wedding Gift Wish the

How to Buy a Wedding Gift - eHow.com Clear Instructions on How To Do (just about) Everything Web eHow.com Home Family & Relationships Center Wedding Bells How to Buy a Wedding Gift Wish the lucky pair well with a heartfelt and useful gift. Steps: 1. Find out where the couple has registered by calling a member of the wedding party. You can also call, visit or go online to specific stores to determine where they've registered. 2. Search the wedding registry, making sure you have the full names of both bride and groom, as well as the wedding date, to make the search easier. The registry should give an updated list of gifts the couple hasn't yet received. 3. Select a gift from the registry that is within your price range, even if that means you can buy only one cup and saucer. 4. Have it gift-wrapped, and include an enclosure card with your address to simplify the couple's thank-you writing. 5. Address the gifts to the bride before the wedding, and to both the bride and groom afterward. 6. Send your gift instead of bringing it to the wedding; this is much easier for the wedding party. Most stores will mail it for you, especially if you order it online or by telephone. 7. If you prefer to give money instead of a gift, present it on the day of the ceremony. Make a check payable to both the bride and groom. Tips: As a rule of thumb, select a gift from the registry since the couple has expressly requested these items. Refrain from buying a print by your favorite artist or an antique cake platter you love unless you are absolutely positive the couple will also love it. Consider purchasing a large gift with a group of friends. Shop early when buying a gift off the registry. You'll have a wider variety of choices in your price range. Warnings: Avoid monogramming your gift. The couple can't return or exchange a monogrammed gift, and you may not know what names the couple will choose. Tips from eHow Users: Give early by Darrin If you are planning on presenting cash or checks to the bride or groom, send them with your RSVP. Many times the honeymoon plans are still flexible, and knowing additional money is available may allow the soon-to-be-newlyweds to explore more choices. Rate this tip: Make a wedding photo album by eHow Friend My favorite wedding present was an album a friend made with pictures from the wedding, in a high-quality album. Most wedding photographers focus on the wedding party and family, so it was nice to have pictures of my friends at the wedding as well.

College Gift of Stock

UT Austin College of Engineering -- Giving to the College -- Gift of Stock Skip to Main Content Skip to Section Navigation Search Search Engineering Home > Giving to the College > Friendsof Alec > Gift of Stock Friends of Alec Alec's Story Austin Area Businesses Gift Designations Life Endowments Matching Gifts Gifts of Stock Pledgecard Staff Giving to the College Quick Links Quick Links Engineering Home Engineering News Academic Departments Prospective Students Current Students Faculty Staff Alumni The College Our Faculty & Staff Research Directory Continuing Education Corporate Relations Giving To The College Gift of Stock A gift of appreciated stock is an excellent way to support the College while simultaneously avoiding a capital gains taxtaking a charitable deduction. Outright gifts of marketable securities for current operations or endowments can be made in several ways: If the donor has a broker, the donor should advise the broker that he or she wants to make a gift to The University. Preferably, this request should be in the form of a letter, containing the following information: The name of the stock; The number of shares; The donor's name and address; and What the stock will be used for. The stock gift will actually be made to the Board of Regents of The University of Texas System for the use and benefit of The University of Texas at Austin. The donor's letter should tell the specific use/purpose for the gift. In the letter to the broker, it is advisable for the donor to copy the Engineering Foundation at: College of Engineering UT Austin ECJ 10.324 Austin, TX 78712 The donor's letter should instruct the broker to call the UT System Office of Estates and Trusts at (512) 499-4346 for instructions to transfer the stock. If the donor does not have a broker, the unendorsed stock certificate should be sent via Federal Express, or similar guaranteed overnight delivery service, to: Ms. Bernice Croft The University of Texas Development Office Campus Mail Code: F1000 Austin, TX 78712 Additionally, the donor should sign a Stock Power, in blank, identical to the way the name is listed on the stock certificate. The Stock Power should be sent separately in the same manner to the address above. It is stressed that the Stock Power should be signed in blank; for example, the name of the transferee should not be entered on the Stock Power. This allows the Board of Regents to sell the stock immediately upon receipt; thus, quickly locking in a sales price for the gift. If the donor does not have a Stock Power, The University can provide one. Once the signed Stock Power and the stock certificates are in the UT System Office, the gift can be processed. If you have questions about a stock gift, please contact the Engineering Foundationoffice at 512-471-3395 or ut@engr.utexas.edu or Bernice Croft ,Development Office, (512) 475-9667.
