Happy Haulidays - Stocking Stuffers

Gifts under $50

December 20, 2011

You don't go quite around the world, but every Christmas Eve you make a run of your own - to any open store for emergency gift getting.

Sure, last year Uncle Jay seemed to enjoy his tree-shaped air freshener, your cousin made short work of that Big Gulp, and yes, Dad did tear into his fun pack-sized Funyons. Still this year you'd like to transition out of Santa Flaws into a Christmas miracle.

Do it your elf with a few finds for under $50 that you can pick up before the 24th.

Even those who don't know beans about the process can become a chocolatier using cocoa beans, perfectly roasted nibs, 70 percent Hawaiian chocolate and step-by-step instructions by masters at Madre Chocolate.
