Before the pandemic, I realized most of my budget went to eating out. The temptation to accept every brunch or dinner invitation was real. They say your vibes attract your crowd, which is probably why I'm surrounded by foodies [1]. Now that we're easing back into socially distant hangs, we'll likely revert back to the same habit.
If you're considering what to give your best friend/fellow foodie (we all know one), look no further than these delicious treats [2]. Don't be surprised if you feel hungry after this. . .
