1. Real Wisconsin Cheese
The Wisconsin Cheese Man is practically a member of our family. He’s one of those relatives you may not ever see, but we faithfully exchange gifts every single year. I send him a check and he sends me an extraordinary selection of cheeses and summer sausage.
One of my favorite gifts, especially to receive, is the Wheel O’ Cheese. To me a “variety of pasteurized process cheese products” is just pure heaven. Paired with a steady supply of Wheat Thins and you’ll be in the recipient’s good graces all year long!
There is nothing quite like a trip to Giordano’s or the original Pizzeria Uno! For those too far away to enjoy these delicacies, why not give a gift that keeps on giving? Homemade deep dish pizza will satisfy that hankering for one-slice-and-I’m-stuffed goodness. This professional-style deep dish pizza pan is sure to make that crust turn out buttery and perfect. Check out the reviews on this cookbook! While there are no ‘secret’ recipes, these selections are definitely the next best thing.
Like its sister Southern Living, Midwest Living captures the essence of the region through food, decorating, travel and stories. Give a monthly trip to the heartland with this subscription.
This wonderful coffee table book is the perfect gift for any lover of handmade, and especially hand-sewn, items. Butler’s beautiful style puts a contemporary twist on folk art, particularly in her fabric line.
For lovers of this infamous Cincinnati chain, please run-don’t-walk to these chili kits. Using fresh ingredients, you can create some of the best chili in the world. Do you want yours 5-way?
Taking you into the soul of each restaurant, Best Food in Town, does what no internet review even attempts. Share this ticket to down-home-goodness-as-good-as-mom’s with everyone you love.
Want to get away from it all? Retreating to rural American brings peace and simplicity to a vacation. Especially perfect for couples, this book shares ideas from across the region.
Visit all of these suggested gifts at the Midwest Holiday Gift Guide store. From there, you can see other selections for invoking that Midwestern goodness!
