Don't Forget the Host that Made Your Thanksgiving Happen. photo courtesy of CarbonNYC
Anyone who has prepared a Thanksgiving meal at home (without the help of the Honeybaked Ham Company!) knows that the entire process is time consuming and exhausting. While the rest of the family is watching football or the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, the cook is in the kitchen making sure the meal is perfect. Wondering how to make sure your Thanksgiving host feels appreciated? Show her your thankful with a fabulous gift.
Dessert
Take something off the host’s plate by bringing dessert. Make something from scratch or enlist the help of the best local bakery to create a yummy pumpkin or pecan pie. No matter what type of sweet treat you bring the host will be thankful for your contribution to the meal.
Ritz Engraved Wine Bucket
Few names embody luxury like “Ritz.” Bring a little glam to your Thanksgiving table with the engraved Ritz wine bucket from CentralChef.com. It holds two bottles, which you may want to include as well for extra points.
Gourmet Food
Bring a tasty addition to the dinner table with some gourmet food products from Williams-Sonoma. A couple tasty options include the Pecan Pumpkin Butter or organic Butternut Squash Puree.
Home Spa Gift Set
The Thanksgiving host will surely be ready to relax once the meal is complete. Give them a gift that does just that. The Home Spa Gift Set from GiftsandBlessings.com has everything you need to help your host relax after a long day in the kitchen.
Box Frame
Pick up the Lexington Box Frame from Pottery Barn and fill it with happy photos from Thanksgiving celebrations in years past. It will remind your host why all their hard work is worth it.
Do Some Dirty Work
Better than many gifts would be the offer to help do some of the dirty work. Create a “coupon” redeemable for free dish washing services. The cook should definitely not have to handle clean up as well.
