Gifts from Gumps #4: Culinary Notepad Set

While the art of letter writing has dwindled, dashing off a hand-written "be right back" note or a to-do list is something that cannot be replaced with an app. This set of five letterpress notepads by Charles Fradin is designed with charming illustrations of culinary delights—a farmer's market tote, a classic layer cake, a simmering pot, a ripe tomato. Wrapped up with a big red bow, it's the perfect hostess gift or stocking stuffer.
