Seems especially appropriate for travelers who were forced to be homebound this year.

At Christmas time, I gave a gift bag to a family of items I bought at Whole Foods.
Bottle of sparkling white wine
Six-pack of craft beer
Bag of pistachios
Baguette
2 nice cheeses: Robiola and a nice blue
Cookies from the bakery
Lake Champlain chocolates
WF brand gummy stars
Box of Nizza La Colombe coffee
I put it all in Whole Foods thermal shopping bag. Got an effusive, rave call thanking me.

We got a 6-month subscription to Universal Yums. We’re having a lot of fun with the first one. Even the things everyone hates are kind of fun.

The Harry & David’s gift basket we received was overpriced and most of it was inedible (worst cookies ever, and I love sweets).
Some suggestions:
Smith Island cake and ice cream (google it; it’s a Maryland thing from Smith Island)
Honolulu Cookie Co. (I think that’s what it was called. Assorted pineapple shaped cookies in a variety of flavors from HI; great packaging). You can also order tropical flowers from HI; gorgeous!
Zabar’s in NYC

Not food related but we got a poker set with cards, chips and a shuffler. It’s provided a lot of family fun.

Spoonful of Comfort. They send a huge thing of soup, bread and cookies. It was perfect. They have some yummy options.

12:43 again. To add, the worst we received was from Harry and David. It was overpriced and not tasty. Half was tossed and that says a lot. The teens usually eat anything.
