				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think a nice specialty water or small dessert would be appropriate.  I'd stick with something consumable because you might not know her taste and most people have the kitchen items they need.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;In a similar situation, I have taken two bottles of wines from a local winery - one a regular red to drink and another a port wine to gift.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;These are great ideas, thanks! I wasn't planning on bringing an alcoholic beverage, but maybe a bottle of wine and a nice stopper is a good idea. I'm not a big drinker so my original thought was to bring a couple bottles of nice sparkling water, but didn't know what else (I want the gift to coordinate, as Khris said.) So maybe I'll do both... wine and a wine accessory, and the sparkling water...
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I really like the idea of specialty tea (but then I am a tea drinker) - I got a small box of white tea &#034;pyramids&#034; from Forte teas as a hostess gift that was just beautiful.  WIne accessory sounds good, too - maybe something like a pretty wine bottle stopper that does not take up much room?
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I always think home made goodies are nice (biscuits or truffles) if you have the time.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like the idea of a wine accessory, chocolate, or specialty coffee or tea. I'd keep it kitchen related I think.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;If you're bringing wine to drink, you could add a nice wine corker or aerator. If you're bringing coffee, a pretty coffee pot, etc. Some sort of kitchen accessory that coordinates with your beverage is the way that I would go because it doesn't seem like a &#034;reach&#034;.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I would suggest a bottle of wine or some lovely chocolates.  Or perhaps some nice coffee or tea if you know she likes either of those.&#060;br /&#062;
Hope you enjoy the party.  And please report back and let us know what you decided to wear.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Hi all! I again apologize for my absence, life has been busy.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I have a quick question that I think you can help me with! I am attending a work dinner party tonight, hosted by the assistant manager of my department, at her home. The invite says to bring &#034;whatever beverage you will be drinking&#034; but what else? I feel like I should bring a little something extra. I'm also working towards growing with the company and of course I'd like to make a good impression.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So, what kind of hostess gift would you bring your manager? I am a total loss here. (It's my first work party actually, very exciting! I have no idea what I'll be wearing!)
&#060;/p&#062;
