Say "Merry Christmas'" with home-baked goodies Baking from “scratch” is not a lost art among, homemakers. Most housewives would bake much more often if time and circumstances allowed. The aroma of baking is still a memorable treat for everyone, exceeded only by the pleasure of tasting something homemade and freshly baked. Something from the oven makes an ideal gift at Christmastime, as well as providing something special for the family.
