UncommonGoods Giveaway!

December 4th, 2013 by justJENN

When I’m shopping for holiday gifts I usually go for items that are useful in daily life. A gift that lasts throughout the year will always be appreciated and well used!

Plates are always one of my favorite things to give because they work as holiday gifts for men or as gifts for women and can transform an everyday meal into something special.

One of my favorite plate sets is the Soup and Sandwich Ceramic Tray Duo from UncommonGoods. Don’t be fooled, it’s much more useful than it’s name – it can be a foundation for all your meals throughout the day!

For breakfast I use the plate for a Blueberries and Cream muffin with Broiled Grapefruit on the side, the yin and yang of fruit eating! A little healthy, a little decadent, that’s the kind of balance I like.

My lunch is usually vegetarian. Mac n cheese can be filling so I definitely like to add a side of fruits and veggies. Lunch is sort of a grab and go, if I’m working I like things that are easy to eat while I work and be able to work while I eat. It’s not pretty, but it’s how I get things done.

Dinner is my biggest meal of the day and I like to make it all about comfort. Bacon Corn Chowder is good all by itself but if I’m wanting something extra hearty I’ll pair it with a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich.

I love these plates because they’re subtlety pretty and so versatile. UncommonGoods.com offers lots of unique designs and handcrafted gifts just like this, that you won’t find in your average store. Not only that, the company is a big supporter of artists and designers and 1/3 of their collections incorporates recycled or upcycled materials.
