Holiday Gifts for cooking enthusiasts

Gratitude

Dec 22, 2012 by Lauren Stransky

xmas-gift

Despite the hustle bustle of the holidays, the end of every year has always been a time for me to pause, reflect and count my blessings. This year is no different, and it brought to mind a little poem I think is poignant:

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself.

I plan to recall those words, as I begin a new year that will surely present challenges, adventures and opportunities to have a positive impact on the world around me.

To my friends near and far, I wish you a joyous holiday season, a merry Christmas and a New Year filled with good health, happiness and peace!

Perfect Holiday Gifts for Cooking Enthusiasts

Dec 9, 2011 by Tina Ruggiero

6a01053531eb10970c0162fd95213d970dFinding the perfect gift for that special someone in your life can be tough.  You want to give something unique but practical, memorable but affordable, and you want it to be something they’d never get for themselves.

With those criteria in mind, I compiled a gift guide filled with goodies that are ideal for anyone who loves good food, cooking and entertaining. Gifts range from $8 to $120 and are suited to everyone — from your inquisitive three year-old to a co-worker to your Mother-in-Law.

Affordable, fun, high quality and unique, I think you’ll find my picks just what you’re looking for. And for those of you who want to get yourself a little something, check out my ring. From Anne Koplik Designs (jewelry provider for Dancing with the Stars), this Rose Opal Crystal Flower Ring is a show-stopper!

Watch my segment on FOX, and be inspired by your gift-giving options!
