2012-02-03T20:46:59Z

Iittala is known for strikingly chic, sleek and lasting design, and Vitriini boxes are an ideal, thoughtful Valentine’s Day gift for the love in your life. This gift will be appreciated for its renowned, impeccable glass and the vivid colors that permeate each box. Using the normal Iittala colors, the new collection of Vitriini by Anu Penttinen will allow women to place jewelry or other valuable items into a beautiful box that is lovely to look at and admire. Consider using them as your own colorful showcases. We know that one size does not fit all, so there are many sizes offered on Didriks.com, where you can even combine your favorite ones. Whether for mom, your spouse, friend or any other people you care about, this will be a stunning gift used by loved for many years to come.

Our Fourth Annual Food for Free Fundraiser Kicks Off

2012-02-04T08:00:05Z

Our February Food for Free fundraiser kickoff party Thursday night was a huge success. We had a great turnout, our largest in four years of raising money for Food for Free, and enjoyed a delicious spread put out by Robert Harris of Season to Taste Catering. Robert cooked up fresh risotto balls topped with roasted plum tomatoes; cauliflower saffron custard garnished with sage leaves in flaky pie dough shells; crostinis topped with walnut and blue cheese crema, golden beets, and a herb pistou; and Robert’s famous pulled pork served on homemade waffle chips.

Remember that through February, 5% of all Didriks sales will go to helping bring fresh, healthy produce into the homes of the people who need it most.

More about Food for Free
Food for Free collects fresh produce, that would otherwise go to waste, from wholesalers, grocery stores, farms, and CSAs and distributes it to over 74 food pantries in Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville. Their home delivery program brings this food into the homes of low-income elderly or disabled people who are unable to get to food banks themselves, allowing them to cook their own meals in their own homes rather than relying on prepared food from meals-on-wheels programs.

Here are some shots from the party. See more on our Flickr.
