A Very Tasty Gift Idea

Friday December 19, 2003
Looking for an unusual hostess or holiday gift idea? Have you ever considered giving specialty spices as a gift? This week I was surprised to receive in the mail a gift package containing a selection of spices from Penzeys Spices. When the fragrant box arrived I couldn't wait to unveil the treasures inside. I found four ample jars of spice blends surrounded by bay leaves, cinnamon sticks and nutmeg. It made me appreciate the kind of homecoming those early explorers must have been given when they returned with ships laden with spices from faraway lands.
