Last week got a bit healthy in places, so it’s back to the sweet stuff! I wish I didn’t have a sweet tooth, but I do. Generally it likes to be fed good quality chocolate, but just occasionally it will wander over the naff side. If you’ve got a sweet-toothed sweetie to buy for, here’s [...]

Healthy foodie gifts

I am not sure why, but there aren’t so many foodie gift lists come out of the UK, most seem to come out of the US. It’s possibly down to the fact they use the word more, but then I’m not sure what the English (UK) alternative is, as gourmet, epicure and gourmand always feel [...]

November in review – all about the Christmas prep
December 1st, 2009 · No Comments · Alcohol free drinks, Baking, Christmas foodie gifts, Foodie gifts, Foodie things to do, Kitsch cooking, Naff presents, Places to shop online
Another month gone, and we’re getting so close to Christmas now. After last month’s obsession with unusual foodstuffs like the Gummi Bear, this month has swung into full on gift searching, but at a more general level. And then the usual array of odd searches that cause me amazement, bewilderment and the odd giggle or [...]

Christmas in a box with Natoora
November 28th, 2009 · No Comments · British favourites, Christmas foodie gifts, Foodie gifts, Meat treats, Places to shop online
I really like Natoora, great for shopping for continental goodies without the jet lag. And now they are offering Christmas in a box, bringing great taste to the table without the queue! Each box gives you the ingredients for a main course, dessert and wine, plus a recipe card from a top chef such as [...]

I’ve written quite a few posts on the Christmas gifts on offer from some of the High Street, so I think it’s time to have a look at a source for more unusual and unique gift options. Not On the High Street was a welcome addition to the online shopping world a couple of years [...]

Would you buy a hamper?
October 6th, 2009 · 3 Comments · British favourites, Cheese, Christmas foodie gifts, Fish & Seafood, Foodie gifts, Places to shop online, Savoury gifts, Sweet treats
It’s getting to that time of year when I get inundated with emails about hampers, and I often wonder who buys them. There’s the big corporate buyers, and I would think that a good hamper would be well received by many people. Even if you didn’t get the whole hamper, everyone on a team could get [...]

The catalogues cometh, part one!
September 27th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Cheese, Christmas foodie gifts, Foodie gadgets, Foodie gifts, Fruit & Veg, Kitchenwares, Naff presents, Places to shop online, Wine
Ah, September. Month of mist and mellow fruitfulness. And catalogues. Yes, an almost daily deluge in our house, driven by my addiction to online shopping and from my work on ProblemPresents.com in the past. Some are good, some are bad, and some are laugh out loud awful. But what about if you’re trying to find [...]
