Literature Mug or Classic Kids Book Mug… Winnie the Pooh, Harry Potter.

A Classic Novel – To Kill a Mockingbird, Oliver Twist, The Great Gatsby, Jane Eyre and so many more!

Microplane – The best grater for lemons/oranges/limes,  ginger, nutmeg, parmesan cheese, garlic and more. This is by far my favourite kitchen tool.

Meat Thermometer – This is a must for any roast dinner. Even chefs rely on mat thermometer’s to ensure they have perfectly cooked, moist meat.

Turmeric + Black Pepper Raw Herbal Extract – This premium turmeric extract is made from organic Curcuma longa root and blended with black pepper extract for maximum absorption. I love to add this to oatmeal, stir fry’s, and in replace of ground turmeric. The earthy lavour is amazing!

Trio of Handcrafted Oils – High-quality oils perfect for drizzling to elevate a dish. Non-GMO & Kosher.

Jumbo Ice Tray – Perfect for cocktails, the large surface area of the cube allows it to melt slower, allowing your drink to stay cooler for longer, without diluting it.

Measuring Spoons – It’s always good to have a couple sets of these, especially when baking.

Loose Leaf Tea –  These 6 Indian tea blends include 2 types of chai, plus green, oolong, white and tisane varieties. This is a real treat for a tea lover!

Salt Holder – Cooks like to feel how much salt is going into a dish. This ‘salt keeper’ is made of olive wood and concrete which is a perfect way to store kosher or sea salt and will impress any cook.

Spoon Rest – Home for the cooking spoon and keeps the counter clean.

Mason Jar with a Treat – Your cook will always find a way to use a Mason Jar, so add their favourite candy or chocolate inside. Put a bow on top or ribbon around the top to make festive.

    I have always filled a stocking for my husband. Last year, he decided he would do one for me and it was fun! First time I’d had one since I was a kid. But then he told me his honest feelings of how it just was’t something he’d ever done and didn’t enjoy it so I guess it was my last. hahaha
    Great Ideas!

    THIS is life!!! Thank you!!! I love getting people gifts but I am admittedly not the best at shopping. THIS is so helpful! I especially love the Audible membership idea. I’m ramping up for marathon training and I need to load up on audio books for those long runs. I’ve always listened to music or podcasts but started books recently. The BOOKS are key to getting “lost.”

    As a book lover myself, I would LOVE a pocket version of a classic novel in my stocking! Pair it with a good crossword and I’m good to go 🙂
