10 Gifts for the Foodie in Your Life This Christmas
Christmas in Nigeria is way more about food and festivities than it is about giving gifts — am I right or amiright? The idea of sitting around the tree exchanging presents on Christmas morning is way more of an Oyinbo/Hollywood concept that doesn’t particularly translate here on a general scale. But if, like me, you’re brimming over with festive spirit and want to be more of a giver in this season of your life, then you’ve come to the right place.
For every food lover in your life, there’s a gift on this list that will do the job of saying, “I love you” very well. Plus: There’s something in here that’ll work for every budget!
