Written By Amanda McLemore · Editor-In-Chief

I love every season in its own way, but the holiday season always has an essence of magic that cannot be seen, but felt within the home and throughout the abundance of love and appreciation we show each other during this season. It is so important to me to gift with intention and to adopt and live by a less but better approach when it comes to bringing physical items into our dwellings. My one and only tip for gifting the best gifts is to listen and converse with your loved ones. They will leave hints at what they need and want in their dwellings and surprising them with something they need or want through listening is the best gift of all. I hope you enjoy this simple guide to sustainable kitchen gifts and I hope these items bring your love ones joy as they do in my own dwelling.

No°1 Endlessly Elated Coupe

Cause every moment should be celebrated in style. The Elated Coupe is hand blown and made with the same intentionality as the cocktails we shake up or the food we serve in our dwellings. Gift these gorgeous coupes to the entrepreneur in your life, the new homeowner, or anyone you know who needs to celebrate every moment in style.

Eliminate packaged bread for good. This well made oven assists you in making bakery quality bread with ease. If you are looking for the gift that keeps on giving to the bread lover in your life, this is the one.

Give the gift that gives back. Our intentionally packaged City Honey makes the perfect gift for co-workers, family and friends who are sustainable AF.

Amanda McLemore · Editor-In-Chief

Amanda McLemore has been editor-in-chief at Baguette and Butter since 2010.

Born and raised in Detroit, MI, Amanda was always drawn to food. She observed how it had the power to bring people together, help us grieve the loss of a loved one, and nourish and repair us from within. The more she learned about food and cooking it the more curious she became on how it was grown and where her food was coming from.

In 2016, Amanda McLemore gave up the grocery store for an entire year to see if it was possible to better connect with the local food grown within and around her city. In this year she learned much about growing her own food, sourcing local and packaged free ingredients and how to preserve the seasons; all for her health and the health of the planet.
