2017 Christmas Gift Guide: For the Chef or Foodie

We are on day four of our annual Christmas Gift Guide! Day one was holiday entertaining, then stocking stuffers, all under $10, ideas for kids, tweens and teens and today, it is for the chef or foodie in your life.

I like to think myself a sort-a chef and definately a foodie.  There isn’t a DIY/make-your-own insert something you can easily buy already made-kit I didn’t like.  Artisanal olive oil? Yup.  Extra points if I infused it myself.  I’m of the “once you make it yourself, you can never go back to store-bought” camp.  In theory, because I don’t have that kind of time!
