4 Gifts for Easter Brunch & The Hostess:
Celebrated this year on Sunday, April 16th, the end of Lent, Easter traditions vary. After the big egg hunt or morning service, here’s what you can bring the host of Easter brunch:
- Spring Scented Candle — Floral scents like lilac and violet are traditional scents that are sure to make any home smell like spring. La Belle Meche and Nomaterra sell hand-poured candles that we love.
- Easter Gift Basket — From kid-friendly snacks to gourmet carrot cake, select an Easter Gift Basket fitting of the type of affair you’re attending.
- Easter Wine (White/Red) — Going to a traditional brunch? Bring Sauvignon Blanc or an uncorked Chardonnay if ham is the main dish. For lamb, choose a red wine like a Rioja reserva or a Cabernet/Merlot blend.
- Coffee Cruet — Is coffee served after Easter brunch? Know her kitchen aesthetic? A coffee cruet is a hostess gift that’ll be used time and time again. Crate & Barrel offers an enameled stoneware cruet, an airtight silicone gasket to keep coffee beans fresh.
4 Gifts for Passover Seder & The Hostess:
Passover begins Monday, April 10th with the first Seder and ends Tuesday, April 18th. Here’s what you can bring your generous host:
- Flowers — A perfect way to celebrate the holiday, a bouquet of flowers adds a beautiful touch to the hostess’ home.
- Kosher Wine — Acknowledge Pesach thoughtfully with a bottle of kosher wine that can be shared during Seder.
- Kosher Gift Basket — Choose from a gourmet chocolate centerpiece to an assortment of kosher snacks including Matzos, to please everyone.
