I have something to share with you. 

It’s that time of year when we get invited to a dinner party or a holiday event and I think to myself, what can I bring for the hostess?  Yes, a bottle of wine is usually the safe gift but here are a few more creative options that you can easily put together at home after a quick shopping trip.

For the Hostess who loves to sit with a great book:

For the Hostess who loves to bake with the family:

For the Hostess who loves the spa:

For the hostess who loves cooking:

Here are a few other ideas I found on Pinterest:

• A S’Mores kit – chocolate bars, graham crackers, marshmallows
• A pitcher with lemons, sugar, a wooden spoon and a recipe with a tag that says “Just Add Water“
• Giving plate – add their name and pass it to the next family
• Waffle cones, toppings and a scooper with a tag that says “Just Add Ice Cream“
