Best Gifts for Her

She'll love this immersion blender. The Frigidaire Professional™ Immersion Blender is very well constructed - the fit and ease of connecting various pieces is tremendously easy. Handling is very comfortable and performance is above average. If I didn't know that it had 200 watts, I would think it had a more powerful motor, judging by the ease with which it chops, whips and blends, and how quickly it accomplishes each task. This is a very nice unit, extremely versatile and a joy to use.

A compact cutlery set that includes four kitchen knife essentials in an easy-to-place block. Knives have quality stainless blades with sharp edges and comfortable bakelite handles. This set is ideal for the secondary food prep corner.

This is a gift she'll quickly warm up to - an electric towel warmer to make her bath towel or robe cozy and comfy. These towel warmers come in a variety of sizes and prices so you can find the one that would be best for her bathroom or to install near the outdoor spa area.

A tea lover would love anything from Teavana. They have a good selection of scrumptious tea blends as well as tea pot, kettles, travel tea mug and cups. If you choose gift ware, make sure to include some teas she can enjoy.

A piece of furniture to store and organize her jewelry is a treasured gift. This would more likely become a timeless heirloom over time. There are many options for jewelry armoires. The one featured is a freestanding Powell Woodland Armoire with several drawers and plenty of places to hang necklaces and keep other treasures. There are also wall-hung models with a mirror front and interior storage for jewelry. Which type you chose will depend on available bedroom floor or wall space and whether you own your home or rent. Either one would be a nice gift. Some assembly may be required.

KitchenAid makes excellent blenders and their 5-speed models are very popular with consumers. Sturdy and powerful, a KitchenAid blender is a convenient appliance for blending, mixing foods or making a smoothie.

Does she love a latte? How about one she can easily make at home for a fraction of the cost? And if she's on any food substitutes for health or allergy reasons, she'll love being able to customize and control additives, sweetening as well as use dairy alternatives. The Mr. Coffee Cafe Latte Maker is simple to use and incorporates the latte processes in one automated step, so she sit and enjoy her custom latte.

The Crock-Pot® Trio Cook & Serve™ is a joy to cook with for two or as part of a buffet setting. It takes convenience cooking to a new level and is so much more than a buffet server, you can use it for a complete meal for even just two people. It does require more counter space than a single slow cooker and it's one appliance she'll want to keep handy. Rival also now makes a Crock-pot Duo (double slow cookers) with the same features.
