]]> Whether you’re staying at someone’s house for the weekend or going over for a big dinner, it’s always nice to bring them a special little something. If it’s someone you know well, it’s easy to customize something for them. However, if it’s someone new or just someone you don’t know well, finding a gift for them can be harder. Here is a list of great gifts that anyone would be happy to receive.

Serving Items

Whether it’s a nice spoon, a salad set, or a bowl, bringing a beautiful serving item is always welcome. Most likely, the people that you are with like to entertain, so something new to display is a thoughtful gift that will actually end up being used.

Something Local

If you are coming from out of the town, it’s always fun to give the person a taste of where you live by bringing them something local. Whether it be honey, wine, or a spice blend, go to a local store and find an item that will well represent where you come from.

Homemade

If you are looking to give something from the heart, making homemade jam is a great option! It’s also very easy to do and only requires fruits, a sweetener, and a jar.

]]> We all have it in our heads that the more aesthetically beautiful a piece of produce is, the better it will taste, but that is simply not true. In the US alone, at least 30%-40% of food is thrown away. Included in that number are grocery stores who throw away all unsold produce, no matter if it’s ugly or beautiful. While 1 in 6 people go hungry in the US, consumers and producers are throwing away tons of valuable food. Here are some ways to can help, starting with buying ugly food.

The USDA has different visual grading standards for all fruits and vegetables. These standards are solely based on the appearance of the food, not nutritional value or freshness. Supermarkets mostly carry grade 1 food, but if you find any deformed or slightly different looking produce, buy it! There is a chance no one else will, so make sure that all the labor and money that went into that piece of produce gets used.

Also, try to shop at farmers markets as much as you can, as they sell almost all of their products that are grown, whether it is necessarily beautiful or not. This will also help small business grow and gives back to the community.
