Hello MorningSend a jolt of sunshine with our Hello Morning Hamper. Choose from Cultiva Coffee’s Hillis Blend, or California Persian Black Tea from San Francisco’s Samovar Tea Lounge, and take a moment to slow down, unplug, and wake up! Two 1 lb. muslin bags of American Spoon Pancake Mix (Buckwheat and Cornmeal) will provide a hearty and satisfying vehicle for enjoying American Spoon’s famed Sour Cherry Preserves. Also included is a quaint vintage tin of pure maple syrup from Vermont’s Bragg Farm – tapping maples for their prize-winning syrup since the 1880’s. Or try Mike’s favorite on toast, pancakes or oatmeal – Big Spoon Roasters Almond Butter made in small batches with a touch of honey, sea salt, care and craft. Tucked alongside these goodies you’ll find Studio Patró’s Linen Tea Towel hand printed and designed to be useful and beautiful for years to come.

UnwindWe all know someone who deserves a little pampering, and our Unwind Hamper contains all the necessities to slow down and let go. Pickwick & Co.’s Cedar Candle is hand poured in small batches with a fresh and original single note fragrance that is subtle and calming. Felicity: Poems by Mary Oliver, is our favorite read from this inspirational Pulitzer Prize winning author who has chosen to celebrate love, life and beauty. Studio Patró’s Lavender Linen Sachet is a thing of beauty to add the uplifting scent of fresh lavender to any drawer, nook, or cupboard. Made in Vermont for over 30 years, and a staple in our own homes, is Honey Soap from Baudelaire, less drying and super moisturizing, it’s the most beautiful and useful bar of soap around. And finally, one can’t fully relax and unwind without a little chocolate! Sweet Minou Chocolate has created a custom single origin bar just for us, topped with toasted nuts and dried fruits that complement the bean to bar silky dark chocolate.

Kitchen EssentialsFor the cooks in your life, we have gathered a few of our own kitchen staples – all useful, beautiful, and delicious! Maldon Sea Salt has become legendary for its distinctive pyramid crystals that are easily crushed between the fingers to serve as a finishing salt known for its fresh intensity and clean taste. Equally beloved is the distinctive ceramic pot of Aux Anysetiers du Roy Herbes de Provence – an essential ingredient in Provencal cooking for over 60 years, this dried herb blend was the first of its kind to include lavender flowers in its aromatic herbs. Tiberino Italian One-Pot Pasta Kits bring the taste of hours of cooking to a last-minute meal. The Orecchiette with Vegan Bolognese, and Linguine Puttanesca, take moments to prepare but taste like they have been simmering for hours. From Studio Patró comes a hand printed linen Tea Towel, a practical treasure that will become softer and more absorbent with each washing. The graphic oatmeal linen with black print looks great hanging in the kitchen as well, as does the final ingredient in this hamper – a hand carved wooden kitchen utensil from our favorite local teacher and wood artist, Bryan Mack.

Happy HourAdd a little whimsy to any festive get together with our favorite nibbles and mixers! Blended and bottled in England, Seedlip is the original distilled non-alcoholic spirit pioneering a new category of drinks. Sugar and calorie free, these spirits are blended from naturally sourced herbs, spices, peels and barks, distilled in copper pots. Seedlip is best used as a mixer with soda, tonic, or ginger ale, or as a base for craft cocktails. Our hamper includes all three flavors: Garden, Spice, and Grove, as well as a recipe book filled with great cocktail ideas. We have also chosen two of our most loved cheeses – Dutch Girl Creamery and Prairie Breeze. Local cheese maker, Charuth Van Beuzekom, famous near and far for her goat's milk cheeses, and Milton Creamery in nearby Iowa, home to Prairie Breeze, have been producing award winning cheeses from milk produced on their small family farms for years. The perfect vehicle for cheese is The Matzo Cracker Project Everything Matzo. This delightful cracker is crusted with addictive everything bagel seasoning and crafted in small batches “by charming people your grandmother would love”! Finally, we have tucked in a bag of our famed Hillis Cheese Sticks, and a package of fun cocktail napkins.
