A lof of the food blogs and message boards I read lately all seem to have the same themes - homemade holiday gifts. With the economy putting a crunch on everyone's finances, it seems as though people are trying to find cheap, yet personal, gifts to give this holiday season. Hopefully this list will come in handy for your holiday gift giving.

Now onto the second part of the Top 10:

Ginger Beer

6. Who doesn't love a nice tasty beverage? Shown here is Ginger Beer, which would be lovely for sipping over the winter. The syrup can be bottled in a tall bottle with instructions for mixing with soda water. Another great holiday beverage is Coquito, which is a lovely eggnog-ish type beverage perfect for this time of year.

Super Bars

7. Breakfast goodies - I'm one of those who rarely have time for making breakfast in the morning, so I love things that can be put into a baggie and can be eaten on the run. Shown here are my absolute favorite breakfast bars - full of protein and whole grains. They are also hearty and guaranteed to keep you full for a few hours. A nice batch of these would be a unique gift for a food basket. A lovely loaf of this Chai Pumpkin Bread would also be great, or add in a batch of these Morning Bran Muffins. Or even better, throw in some homemade granola. Here's a list of some wonderful options:
*Lemon Green Tea Granola
*Pina Colada Granola
*Gingersnap Granola

7 Pepper Hot Sauce

8. Hot Sauce - As you know, I'm a huge fan of hot sauce. So a gift of homemade hot sauce would be right up my alley. Shown here is my 7 Pepper Hot Sauce, which is delightfully hot. Or try this Harissa or Red Chile Sauce.

Gingered 3-Seed Dressing

9. Another unique gift for those holiday gift baskets would be a bottle homemade salad dressing. Shown here is one of my favorites, the Gingered 3-Seed Dressing. This Sundried Tomato Vinaigrette would also be tasty, as well as this Asian Pear Dressing. And if you're worried about putting a refrigerated item in a basket, the perfect solution is tucking in a ice pack from the Dollar Store. That way, items will be kept cold.

Cardamom Coconut Macaroons

10. And finally, the traditional gift of baked sweets. This Cardamom Coconut Macaroons are some of my favorite Holiday cookies. Rosemary Shortbread is also a lovely little treat to have a with a cuppa tea. I think I would love to get a batch of Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownies as a gift. Of course, these Fleur De Sel Caramels would be lovely sprinkled in the basket as well.

Hopefully you have some great ideas for your gift baskets. I'd love to hear what you're including in yours. Leave me a comment and let me know what your loved ones will be receiving from you this year!

[size=5][u]Sex Chat[/u][/size]

For sex chat to fulfil every fantasy, call the girl of your choice. If you're into the barely legal nubile,
young girls we can service you completely. Don't let their age fool you - they know what they want and are
just begging for you to talk dirty and get them off. Our young women just love sex chat - giving and receiving.
Listen to these dirty girls sex chat absolute filth about what they would like to do to you, what they are
doing to themselves - in fact sex chat about anything you want to hear. For the mature, call up one of our
filthy females from the granny fanny section. There's nothing that quite makes up for the sexual experience
these women have and they can give it to you in all the colourful, graphic detail through sex chat.

Whenever my mom uses her iPhone and downloads anything, it brings up my email when she has to put in the password. How can I change this so that it brings up her email, and can I switch my email to my iPhone (that im soon to get)? Also, can I transfer bought apps from one iPhone to another? Thanks

I know the terminal command on a mac, so please don't give me that unless you can get it to work on a PC. New iPhone software, new itunes. There has to be a way to disable it.

Online Casinos
For the longest time, when people wanted to play table games, they had to get in the car or get on a
plane and head to a casino. This is not the case anymore, as online casinos have popped up all over
the place to help players get the action they are looking for. Some people do not trust online casinos,
but in reality there is no reason why you should ever doubt them. Online casinos are incredibly
easy to use and they are reliable in nature. So how can you find a good online casino? The first
thing that you need is a site that you can trust. Without that, you really do not have much at all.
Online casinos must be trustworthy in how they handle your money and also how they handle the fairness
of the games. You should know that all online casinos are required to submit to regulation from an
independent casino monitoring source.
