The Gift of Home-Baked Goodness

You know that zucchini bread you're famous for, that everyone at the office dives for when you bring in? Well, now would be a good time to whip out a few loaves, cover in plastic wrap and top off with the recipe on a note-card. You can tie this with curly ribbon for a special touch. This idea could work for anyone on your list, whether it's a co-worker, neighbor or even an entire family.

Picture Frames

If you're buying for the couple you have dinners with, your mom, or even a co-worker, a photo frame can always be personalized. For your friends, slide in a pic from a recent outing. Or take a trip down memory lane and surprise your mom with that photo of you from your 5^th grade talent show. For a co-worker gift exchange, sneak in a candid shot, and then surprise them later with the personalized frame, sure to result in a good laugh. Makes for a perfect desk accessory and conversation piece.
