Traveling to the Green Bay v Minnesota game this weekend, and staying with a buddy whose wife I've never met. What can I bring for the hostess that I can carry on to the plane? Any thoughts would be helpful!

gourmet salt (lots of solid gourmet foods will work, too)
coasters
fancy notebooks

Chocolate
Local jams/jellies
Local wines (you should be able to fly with two bottles)

In state we are allowed three check in bags free so I rarely travel light.
My last flight back from Anchorage (but not up) they boarded people without carry on bags first. I had never heard of this before even when I worked in operations for an airlines but I assume that the amount of carry on bags are getting to be a problem in some way.
That still leaves chocolate(s) or LShieldes's suggestion to buy them dinner.
You can always find a nice place to eat, take care of the reservations and pick up the bill
