My mom asked me to make this blessing mix and it turned out so cute! I’m not so sure how tasty the mixture is, i guess i’m not the biggest fan of bugles, but i love the sentiment behind each ingredient in the mix, and how its a perfect little gift to drop by neighbors or other friends just to let them know you are grateful for them during this season.  I used 5″ wide clear treat bags i got at walmart and printed out the top label on my home printer.  You can download the label for free HERE.  Also just a note on the bugles, they are super hard to find- i got mine at a gas station.

On the backside of the label this is what it says about each ingredient:

-Bugles represent a cornucopia, a horn of plenty, a symbol of our nation’s abundance.

-Pretzels represent arms folded in thanks and prayer, a freedom sought by those who founded our country.

-Candy Corn represents the sacrifices of the pilgrims first winter, food was so scarce that the settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn per day.

-Dried fruit represents the harvest gifts of our bountiful land.

-Nuts and seeds represent the potential of a bounteous harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended.

-M&M’s are the memories of those who have came before us to guide us to a blessed future.

-A Hershey’s kiss reminds us of the love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.
