Last Minute Valentine Gifts From Whole Foods
February 10, 2010 Crunched for time? You'd be surprised at how many neat little Valentine's Day gifts your nearby Whole Foods Market has. They have lots of options for every budget. Of course, if you need something luxe, there's always caviar and champagne too.
On the low end, the Sweet Somethings gift package ($20) includes 10 tulips, EO French Lavender Bath Salts, heart-shaped Whoopie Pie with Raspberry Filling, and Numi Organic White Rose Tea. If you order this online you save about $2. If you want a more traditional gift, they also have ethically-grown Whole Trade Roses for $19.99 a dozen.
If you're a major klutz in the kitchen, there's a Valentine's Day Dinner for Two that you can pick up for $39.99. It includes a Shrimp Bisque, Spinach and Beet Salad, Root Vegetable Gratin and a Cherry Balsamic Glazed Game Hen. Not too shabby for forty bucks.
And...the sweets. Coracao Confections has some healthy raw chocolates made from fair trade and organic Ecuadorian cacao. They're packed with organic superfoods and sweetened with agave nectar and coconut sugar. Best of all, these treats are wheat, gluten, soy and dairy free.
Just head over to www.wholefoodsmarket.com/valentines to place your order by Friday, February 12 for in-store pickup on the 14th. It's that easy. You don't need to phone them, nor do you need to visit the store until the actual holiday. (Note: Promotions valid for Northern CA & Reno stores only; check your nearby store to make sure.)
