To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at NW Minnesota News asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.
These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Olive Tree Adoption & Oil Assortment
This olive oil gift set comes with a story. By adopting an olive tree for a year, you’ll learn about the family-owned business that has been making pure, cold-pressed, extra virgin olive oil in Southern Italy for generations. (You’ll even get a snapshot of the grove!) And, of course, you will also get three tins of their classic oil flavors.
2) Guacamole Preservation Container
Usually guac won’t last more than a day without browning. But this guacamole container creates an airtight seal that keeps oxygen out, so it stays green and fresh for days. (It’s great for hummus, salsa, and tzatziki, too.) Push the the container’s base to remove the air, which raises the guac to the top. The push feature comes in handy as you start enjoying the dip—give a press and it lifts the contents to the top and avoids the need to scrape dip off the sides.
3) Convertible LED Work Light
From camping trips to DIY jobs, this rechargeable LED helps out in many situations. The magnetic light clicks into a durable component (a flashlight, headlamp, hook, strap, or clip) made from water- and shock-resistant polycarbonate to work where you need it, and at the just-right angle. The 150-lumen LED shines a wide, 70 degree angle of light, has adjustable brightness, four light settings, and can last up to six hours on a single charge.
