Five Hostess Gifts for Cinco de Mayo Parties

Cinco de Mayo is just a few days away and I'm sure many of you received invitations to Cinco de Mayo parties this weekend. Why not show your appreciation to your host/hostess for opening their home to you with a small gift. Nowadays you don't have to spend a lot of money on host/hostess gifts. I've discovered that you can find great gifts at stores like Target, Crate and Barrel, Williams-Sonoma, and Sur La Table for $25 or less. Here are five gifts under $25 from some of my favorite stores.


1. The Ultimate Grilling Rub Collection $24
