Going to Christmas in a Handbasket

For anyone who loves to eat, food related Christmas gifts can make the perfect present.  There are tons of options out there for what you can choose, from wine and cheese, spices, frozen meats, desserts, and themed gift baskets.  Who doesn't love to enjoy a special treat like these?  And you don't have to worry if the size fits!


Harry and David's Fruit of the Month Club makes a delicious gift that lasts all year long.

DEAN & DELUCA has lots of delicious options for food related gifts, including this Metropolitan Spice Rack, which comes in the large size (shown) that holds 34 spices or a smaller size, which holds 12.


And for those who especially love the cuisine of another country or region, D&D has lots of fun gift packages for you.  No travel necessary!

These cheese straws are unbelievably addictive.  I'm not kidding.

My husband is from Louisiana, where they have some serious pride in their local cuisine, and I have come to love their rich sauces, seafood galore, and spicy, spicy food-- they put Tabasco on EVERYTHING.  
For those who like it spicy, the GALLON jug of Tabasco
