It’s the time of year for making lists, and hopefully sticking to them.  I’ve compiled a list of items from Twitter and Facebook folks, which are certainly worth checking out for Christmas.

Everything from excellent food products, to gift vouchers, there is bound to be something on this List to suit.  The following is my “Selection Box” of what’s available to order online.

• “A Modern Irish Cookbook” is the brainchild of Goodalls of Ireland, and brings together a collection of recipes from Irish food bloggers, and, in which, two of my recipes feature.  Available as a download or hard copy, all profits going to Crosscare Dublin, and Cork Penny Dinners.

• For top quality, GMO free, free-range pork and bacon, look no further than Oldfarm, Redwood, Lorrha, Co. Tipperary.  Margaret and Alfie work so hard to ensure quality and consistancy in their products. 

• Jane Steger-Lewis, an Artist, Designer and Illustrator living in the West of Ireland, has beautiful and original Christmas cards and prints available on her website, “I-Love-Mayo”.

• Author, Sunday Times Columnist, Student, and very busy Mum, Móna Wise published her first cookbook earlier this year.  “The Chef and I” is a wonderful insight into her life, and contains easy to follow, great tasting recipes.  Available online here.
