Teacher Appreciation Gifts

I've pinned about a half dozen teacher appreciation gifts on pinterest, but I couldn't decide on any of them. I thought and thought and figured that was something more "us".

Weird as it may seem, we decided to send some fresh eggs from our chickens and made some homemade apple butter in for our teachers. My middle child (whose teachers we were giving the gift to) really enjoys helping with our chickens so it was a perfect combo.  You can find my crock pot recipe here . I just used twine and made a tag stating "thanks for an eggcelent year" I'm sure you could come up with some apple saying for the apple butter, I however just went with "from the kitchen of.. colton"

Apple Butter for teacher who LOVE apples, because Teachers love apples.

 

"Thanks for an eggcelent year"

His teacher and both the assistant teachers loved our appreciation gift. they thought it was unique idea and so much more useful than *another* crayon wreath. ;-)
