Safe travels to Cabo! I am jealous. The reality has hit that Christmas is 15 days away and it is time to get cracking. Up until then I am supplying creative gift ideas. Living in NYC, with no space to spare, I tend to be anti-object gifts because there just isn't room. I feel bad every time I move because SO much gets tossed. On that note I am very pro-practical gifts. I also like the idea of gifts that keep giving. Merging those ideas together here are my picks for "Gift of the Month"... Within these there is something for everyone.
1. For Bacon Obsessed....."Bacon of the Month" from the South Carolina butcher, Ted's. Packages start at 3 months for $78. I know plenty of armature chefs that would find this gift as a sweet slice of heaven.

2. For the Beauty Queen..."Birchbox" This monthly cosmetic service sends delightful samples and full size products each moth. I was gifted this a few years ago and loved it! It is so fun to try new products and if you like them they sell them online. They have a great selection and diversity of brands from Kerastase, Nars and boutique brands that are hard to find. (Starting at $10/month!)

3. For the Hostess..."Pair of the Month Club" NYC favorite, Murray's, offers a cheese of the month or my favorite, pair of the month, where they send you half a pound of cheese with an accompaniment. I think this idea is perfect for the ever hostess. I love that this one takes the confusion out of what to serve with the cheese. Plus their cheese is DELISH! Oprah lists it as one of her must-haves!

4. For the fruit lover... "Fruit of the month" from Harry and David. Harry and David has tons of different fruit options and is known for the fruit. I have received and given this gift before and everything was delish and comes beautifully packaged.

5. For the coffee lover..."Artisanal Coffee of the Month" from NYC favorite, Dean & Deluca. Their coffee is always yummy and a fun gift for college students, teachers, or the caffeine obsessed in your life.
