Holiday gifties!

Here are some of the things I'm craving and giving this holiday season.

McCrea’s caramels are not only delish and corn syrup free, they’re made right here Boston.  Sold at Barney’s, Boston Public Market and on-line.

Hot Cocoa on a stick. Just swirl and go!  Hello stocking stuffer! And thank you Jennifer for comparing lists.

The Fuji instant camera will be fun for my daughter to click, shoot and print.  There are all sort of fun frames and photo albums for displaying pics, old school. (Camera is on sale at Urban Outfitters for $80 right now!)

If you haven’t wandered into Urban Outfitters lately, you’re missing one of the latest and greatest collections of chemical free, all-natural products out there.  Oh, and everything is very reasonably priced.  There’s a super selection too, for men who groom.    I’m hoping Santa will slip a single use mask, or bath soak in my stocking this year.

Meg Cohen’s luxuriously soft and yummy arm sox.  I got this gray one and it’s so awesome to be able to use my fingers and still have warm hands.  Not to mention, a tres chic look.

For curling up in front of the fire, a good book is a must. I’m pining for City on Fire, Garth Risk Hallberg’s debut novel about life in NYC in the 1970s.  The thousand pages took 7 years to write and ten publishing houses battled it out for the right to publish it.

Finally, this pocket sized version of the beloved old Simon game will stash nicely in carry on baggage for some wait-at-the-gate fun.

Apres holiday madness, I’m going to throw on a face mask, swirl up some hot cocoa and settle in.

Happy Holidays!  xoxo ~ LB
