21 Days of Midsummer - Day 2

Make a master gift list.
Yes, I do plan giving gifts even on Midsummer.
No, I don't plan on giving gifts that cost more than 10 dollars. It's more like stocking stuffers than presents. Look up "summer gift".
Now, OF COURSE, if you CAN afford it, get extravagant. I can't.

Here, for example, is a mason jar teacher gift. She decorated the jars, put in some school supplies, a gift card and a handful of gravel, and that's it. You can take any jar or perhaps a plastic drink container and put in some things useful in the summer, like drink powder or mosquito repellent or chapstick. Maybe summer socks. Things like that. Cheap, small... it's just a gesture after all.
It would also be quite all right to give a small baggie of Swedish Fish and perhaps put a golden chocolate coin in to represent the sun. 

Also, get out your holiday decorations, if you have any, and check their condition. Do you need to fix any lamps or mend anything or replace anything? Now is the time.
