I was trying to come up with a creative lei (aside from the candy and money ones) for all my nieces. One was being promoted into the seventh grade, the other was graduating middle school and the third one was graduating high school. The girls LOVE baked goods. So I decided to experiment. I baked each their favorite cookies. I then wrapped them using ribbon that matched their school colors. Attached was a note that read: "You're one smart cookie".
They loved it!
