Last Minute Christmas Gifts For Foodies

Can you believe it’s 12 DAYS until Christmas?? This year has undoubtedly been a slow one, but at the same time I feel like it has flown by. It feels like just last month we were beginning the initial quarantine phase, thinking we’d be back to the norm in a few weeks. But here we are, 9 months later, still living in the middle of a pandemic.

Speaking of it being 12 days until Christmas…

I’ve decided to do a little “12 days of Christmas” countdown, posting a new holiday themed recipe everyday from now until Christmas. I know the real 12 days of Christmas technically starts on Christmas day, but it sounded like more fun to build up to the 25th instead. Today, I’m kicking it off with a list of last minute gifts, but from here on out it will be all food + drink recipes perfect for the holiday season.

I don’t know about you, but I haven’t even thought about Christmas gifts for my family yet. Christmas shopping for others is one of my favorite parts of the season, but I feel like this whole year I’ve been last minute on everything. So, if you’re like me and also late on buying Christmas gifts this year, I’ve compiled a list of some of my personal favorites and wish-list items that any foodie (or anyone with a kitchen) will adore.

Prices ranging low to high. Pictures organized left to right, top to bottom.
