We’ve rounded up eight festive ideas from local cookbooks to socks that rock, all of which are sure to land you a firm spot on the “nice” list this year. Be our guest!

For the Caffeinated Family

If you really want to knock the socks off the host family, consider the iCoffee Opus single serve brewing system. Not only does this machine use SpinBrew technology to spin, steam and stir coffee grounds inside the single serve pod, releasing maximum flavor and minimizing acidic or bitter aftertaste, but works with all varieties of K-Cup, RealCup, One Cup and private label cups (think coffee, tea and hot chocolate!). This machine also features Dial-a-Brew technology, allowing you to brew any size cup between 4 and 12 ounces in .5-ounce increments. You know what they say? Happy (caffeinated) parents equals happy kids.

Find it: At Bed, Bath & Beyond stores.
Cost: $139.99
