it's mid December and the holiday party RSVPS are in. here's some fun gift ideas to bring you're host as a thank you...
alcohol is always a safe option
white or red wine, i'm a fan of bringing Kahlua or Baileys for a dessert drink. my boyfriend and i love a good spiked hot chocolate or spiked coffee. Blanco tequila or a smooth Whiskey or Bourbon will do too.
barware
dessert
store bought or home made; home made is better if you can hack it
pies, cakes, cookies, gingerbread, peppermint-flavored anything.
bring your own cocktail
i love this one! and you really can't go wrong with a bottled up cranberry old fashioned in my opinion.
i use this recipe minus the sugared cranberries.
seasonal gift
if you know the host, maybe a nice ornament that reflects them
a seasonal serving dish; it'll probably get used immediately.. like as soon as the mini stuffed peppers come out of the oven.
or an all year serving tray or wood platter.
personalize it
when it's a friend who is throwing the party, i make the gift more personal...
flowers in a pretty vase
i love these turkish towels i recently got for my kitchen so i bought some extras for gifts!
if the event is held at someone's home, we tend to bring adult games as well...like Exploding Kittens or Cards Against Humanity.
