Clean Eating Magazine Subscription

Seriously, this is my favorite magazine of all time. It's smack full of recipes and so few ads. There are almost always photos of everything...just can't say enough good about this magazine so in my opinion it's a FABULOUS gift idea for people who love to cook.

Kinect for Xbox 360
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/kinect
If you want to buy your kids [OR HUSBAND] a video game system, get a kinect for 360. You have to have an xbox 360 to use it and it will get everyone moving and having a blast without realizing how much exercise it is!
Console sells for @$300
Food Rules by Michael Pollan
http://michaelpollan.com/books/food-rules/
It's a tiny book with common sense food rules and I love it so much that I make visuals of it here. I think everyone should have a copy and would make a great stocking stuffer.
Under $10
Local Food Coop Membership
You'll have to scour google to see if you have a coop near you, but this is a great way to introduce a loved one to some healthy food options. Some Whole Foods stores offer this as well. Basically, they bag up locally grown fruits and vegetables that are in season and you pick up once a week or once a month.
Usually around $20/$30 a month
Gift certificates to a nearby organic market
Not only will you be removing the "it's too expensive" excuse from your loved one, you'll also be helping a local healthfood store grow their business!
If you want to get really bold, you could pay their registration fee in an upcoming 5k, 10k or half marathon. That would really put them on the spot on Christmas morning, now wouldn't it. : ) Happy shopping! 2012 is gonna ROCK!
