A Perfect Teacher Gift

Posted: Sunday, December 12, 2010 by Lucy & Michael

Our friend just gave us the best idea ever for holiday gifts for our teachers. If you're still undecided (as we were moments ago) about what to give, consider this: gift certificates at a Whole Foods- or Trader Joe's-like store. The cards themselves are clever, printed with little sayings like "peas on earth," and they often come in cute and environmentally friendly paper sleeves. Wrap in cellophane if you want, or just tie on a ribbon, and include a tag that says, "Lunch is on me! Love, Lucy". The teacher can either actually have lunch during the break, or she can use the card toward the purchase of groceries, flowers, bath products - maybe even a bottle of wine.
