Gifted: R&E Praspaliauskas Bread Slippers

Some folks give edible gifts -- baskets stuffed with cheese, fancy jellies and summer sausages.� Others give cozy, fuzzy slippers.� Now you can give both with the R&E Praspaliauskas Bread Slippers.� Hand-carved from baguette, challah and pumpernickel loaves, the fresh-baked loungers come packaged in real shoe boxes.

Purchase a pair at Dadada; kids' challah versions are �22, while a grown-up pair runs �62.
