“The greatest gift is a gift of yourself – your time, your talent, your consideration of loved ones’ tastes and needs.” With an ardent passion for food and unique gifts, Muriel Miura shows us how to add the personal touch of aloha – island style – to birthdays, holidays, or any special occasion. With over a hundred recipes ad ideas collected from friends, family and travels around the world, the gifts to express love and friendship, or to celebrate a special event are deliciously endless. Complete with tips on wrapping and finishing touches to jars, baskets and boxes, anyone can create her own perfect gift from beginning to end, all from scratch and all with local ingredients. So instead of going to the mall, put your apron on. Be inspired to give a gift from the kitchen, made with your own hands and from the heart.
