Food doesn't have to be the right size or color and does not need to be dusted or displayed.
Food gives comfort.
The only caveat is to know your recipient.
These days some folks have food allergies and preferences, or are on special diets, there are still a lot of food gifts you can give.
If this time of year seems too "foody", consider giving your friends or family a coupon for a pot of soup, home cooked meal, batch of cookies or fancy dessert.
These coupons can redeemed later, when the flush of holiday food is a distant memory.
If you are inspired and want to make some easy food gifts, here are ten of my favorites.
1) Infused oils and vinegars
2)Granola
3) Ice cream toppings
4) Brown sugar
5) Citrus simple syrups
6) Fruit syrups
7) Homemade chili powder and pie spice blends.
8) Homemade curry spice
9) More spice mixes: Moroccan, jerk and ranch.
10) Hummus with homemade crackers.
