Filling a stocking at Christmas gives you
carte blanche to indulge your favorite
culinary wizards in their fantasies.
Along with small kitchen tools, exotic
spices and gourmet ingredients are sure to
delight anyone on your gift list who truly
enjoys cooking.
Assuming that most cooks are already
well -stocked with basic measuring cups,
wooden spoons and wire whisks, you'll pro-
bably want to fill their stocking with
unusual surprises, such as dainty tartlet
tins or pretty wooden butter molds,
perhaps a nutmeg grater, or even a six -
sided cookie cutter.
A mezzahma also makes a great small
gift that's ideal for reducing anything
choppable to a mince. As its name implies,
this half moon blade is rocked back and
forth between its two handles with a mo-
tion that, actually makes mincing fun.
You may want to choose a culinary
theme for the stocking — for example, so-
meone who loves to bake pastry would be
thrilled to find their stocking full of some
of the countless small cutting wheels that
are available in various shapes and sizes.

Little sock stuffers with big impact
The most wonderful Christmas gifts are
not always the biggest and most expen-
sive. Many people prefer smaller, more in-
timate presents that reflect personal
feelings.
This year, fill the family's stockings with
clever little packages that show how much
you care.
Young and old alike delight in discover-
ing stocking surprises. Give the sports fan
tickets to an upcoming match of his
favorite football or hockey team. Arouse a
teenager with a pocket camera and film.
And, nearly everyone appreciates a best-
selling paperback, a tape cassette of
favorite music, or a magazine
subscription.
Watch the special woman in your life
light up when she discovers a classic
cameo pin or a pair of lustrous pearl earr-
ings nestled in her stocking.
Cashmere argyle socks or a plaid wool
scarf will keep him warm and cozy during
the winter months.
Delicious candy in festive shapes and
colors also makes an ideal stocking gift..
Delight friends and family.this
Christmas morning with traditional stock-
ings filled with warm and special gifts.
