A Nutritionista's Guide to Gift Giving!

'It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; soon the bells will start, and the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing right within your heart.'

With just over a week to Christmas, malls are chaotic, line-ups are long, parking lots are full and last minute shoppers are searching for gifts for their loved ones.

Here are a few of my favourite gifts ideas...

For the Love of Chocolate: Purdy's Hedgehogs; milk chocolate, dark chocolate or sugar free.

Vampires & Werewolves: Twilight books and accessories for the Twilight enthusiast. For fans of the paranormal who need time off from Edward and Jacob My Soul To Take is a Harlequin must read.

Tea Please: The Tea Leaf for classic favourites and David's Tea for tasty twists.

Discovering TO: Toronto has a lot to offer! Give gift cards to the Ontario Science Centre, ROM, Bata Shoe Museum and AGO.

Canadian Pride: Support our athletes by giving the gift of Olympic apparel. My favourites: Full Zip Hoodie and Torchbearer Mittens.

Positivity goes a long way: Inspirational coasters, The Secret and Louise Hay help recharge positive vibes on days where positivity is hard to find.

Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot!: For those that love to workout or those who want to try something new how about a Hot Yoga gift certificate? Moksha Yoga has locations all over the city.

Pages of Memories: Scrapbooks are fun to make and great to get.

Good Luck & Happy Shopping!

Stay Healthy!
