1. I see you're looking at the chocolates. That's a perfect gift to take your host for a dinner here, but not a good idea to take home as a souvenir. They'll melt. But these chocolates are very high-quality. And they aren't imported. They're made right here from local ingredients. There are two kinds—dark chocolate and light chocolate, but only one size. They're all two-pound boxes, but they might not be right for everyone because some have nuts. You have to be careful because some people are allergic to nuts.

2. These candles are a good gift if you are going to a housewarming party. They come two to a box. so the number is perfect. You don't want to give four of anything—it's bad luck. There are three sizes—these are mediurn sized, but you can get shorter and taller ones, too. They're really convenient because they come already wrapped. And, notice the wrapping paper is yellow. Yellow is a perfect paper color for wrapping this kind of gift because it means "happiness." Oh,and they're completely natural. They're made of beeswax and other natural ingredients.

3. Let's see... if you want to get some souvenirs for teenagers. I recommend these T-shirts. T-shirts with pictures and writing on them are very popular with young people. There are two styles—red with black writing and black with red writing. As for sizes, we have, uhm, let's see ... small, medium, large ... Uh. I'm afraid they don't come in extra large. Anyway, they're made from 100 percent organic cotton, too. They're a great deal for the price

4. These watches are very popular souvenirs for any girls or women on your gift list. They're quite pretty, aren't they? They're more like jewerly than just watches. Local artists make the wristbands. The beads in the bands are all made from stones that come from the local region. And they're all different. Notice? Here's one with mostly green stones, and here's one with mostly blue stones. The watch part itself comes from Japan—it's very good quality. And the great thing about these— because the band is elastic, one size fits all.
