In the spirit of all that buying local talk a few posts ago, here's a gift list compiled by a local blogger on the Edmonton food scene. I'm near the bottom so you'll have to scroll down for me. It was an honour to be included! Now that I've seen the post I notice that many of my contemporaries are included in the mix. I love good company.
Even if you don't live in Edmonton there are a lot of good gift ideas that I'm sure can be replicated from local sources in your own town. So here's wishing you happy local Christmas shopping!
My favourite gifts to get are delicious food items and fabulous fashion finds. The latter is a tough call because unless somebody really knows me or understands my size, it's hard to hit the jackpot. Last year my good friend Dave got me two vintage broaches. So perfect. And people close to me know it's totally kosher and actually encouraged to buy me ostentatious hair pieces.
And I'll never say no to earrings.
Okay, this is clearly digressing into a post about all the presents I want for Christmas. Perhaps I should write about that separately.
For now, buying local in Edmonton! I would list some of the local businesses that I love, but this other blog post already takes the cake so I'll leave you to go browse.
