These practical gifts show you understand the recipient’s interests and daily life.

One of my favorite ways to gift kitchen tools is by assembling a set with everything needed for a specific recipe, along with the recipe printed on a beautiful card. This type of gift is especially meaningful for someone going through a transition—whether it’s the first holiday after losing a loved one, welcoming a new addition, newlyweds, new home owners, or simply needing a thoughtful pick-me-up.

This Christmas, consider giving gifts that keep on giving: tools and gadgets that simplify, inspire, and elevate the cooking experience. Everyone deserves a little culinary joy under the tree!

Laurie

Hello, my name is Laurie. My family and I live near the Oregon coast. When we aren’t at work, in school, or on the volleyball court, we enjoy traveling, cheering for our favorite sports teams, playing outdoors, and checking off items on our bucket list. We are lucky in that both sets of our parents, as well as our siblings and their families, live within an hour of us. We get together often to help one another out, celebrate milestones, and go on adventures together.
