Confession: I feel a little silly writing this post.
My Christmas shopping has been done for a while-we bring Christmas gifts to half our family at Thanksgiving, since we don’t see them at Christmas. Since I’m doing half the shopping pre-Thanksgiving, we usually go ahead and do it all. Plus, I just get really excited about buying people gifts. However, I suspect that there are still people in this world who haven’t finished their shopping. For you, I offer these gift guides from around the web:
From Serious Eats, gift ideas for Spicy Food Lovers, Healthy Eaters, Cocktail Lovers, Grillers, and Chocolate Lovers.
The Holiday Gift Guide from Chow is nicely divided by price, so you can browse stocking stuffers or big ticket items.
It’s about time someone did this: What Not to Get the Cook on Your List (from WBUR’s Public Radio Kitchen)
These 2 lists aren’t food related, but just because someone loves food/is a food blogger, it doesn’t mean they don’t want non-food gifts. From Fabulously Broke in the City, a holiday gift guide for her and a holiday gift guide for him. All the gifts listed are under $100.
Check out the PETA Mall for cruelty-free gift ideas.
The Kitchn has some DIY gift ideas: Recipe Kits, Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar and Chocolate-Dipped Peppermint and Pumpkin Walnut Biscotti.
I love these ideas for Gifts for the Sustainable Foodie (don’t miss part 2!) from Change.org
The former Editor-in-Chief of Gourmet magazine, Ruth Reichl, is going to be posting one of her favorite products as a gift idea every day from now until Christmas.
If you’re still stuck, check out last year’s list of my favorite kitchen tools. I might create an updated list soon, but I still love all those items.
What was the best Christmas gift you ever received?
This is very helpful! A one stop shop for everything foodie! and more :)
Glad I could help! Looking at the lists just makes me come up with more ideas for my personal wish list.
great post! I need to start thinking about gifts… I’ve been inspired by Heather’s Handmade Christmas, and I think I’m going to bake a lot. I’m not quite as crafty as she is, but she has made some great suggestions. Hmm, the best Christmas gift I ever recieved? Probably my kitty fourteen years ago, I love her dearly and she is a plump as ever living the high life :D
I love Heather’s Handmade Christmas too, but I’m not as crafty as she is. I’m planning to bake bread for some of my friends at work (I did cookies last year).
And now I want a kitten…
