Food-Themed Gifts

Soup in a Jar: This is slightly DIY, but the effort is minimal   it’s easy to pull off a hand-made gift, even if you’re not that crafty. 

Ceramic Coffee Grinder: A good coffee grinder isn’t just for coffee-loving friends and family   it can also be used to grind vanilla beans, peppercorns, flax seeds, spices and grains.

USB Cup Warmer: Plugs into any workstation to keep coffee or tea warm.

Micro-Green Growing Kit: For anyone who likes to have fresh herbs at the ready in the kitchen. Also great for kids for a quick edible growing experience.

Garlic and spices
