The sun didn’t rise until 7:44am this morning and the sun will set at 4:18pm this afternoon. It definitely feels like December and we’ve been enjoying a quiet weekend cozying up to the fire and drinking mezcal hot toddys with our neighbors. Our sweet little Christmas tree is up…
My favorite Vince Guaraldi Trio “Holiday” Pandora station is on during every waking hour…
And now I am checking off holiday gifts and making a wishlist of all the cool things I love starting with this butter ornament for my tree…
These wear-forever GOOP x Sperry boots (order a 1/2 size down). Also available here)…
I would love this beautiful Grace Lee crown bezel moonstone ring in gold or rose gold…
And these Bose noise-canceling headphones…
I can think of a number of rad women I’d like to give this “Women Supporting Women” tote to…
Ayako & Family jam is still one of the things I gift most year-round. Teachers, neighbors, hostess gifts. I got this stack of different plum jams from DeLaurenti in the Pike Place Market…
Possibly the number one thing on my list this year are these Moxi Lolly skates in clementine…
This cast iron spice grinder would find a nice home in my kitchen…
I would also love these Patagonia hemp canvas overalls for my gardening chores…
These Anne Sisteron initial studs are the ones I wear everyday and would make a sweet gift…
The only time I’m not wearing them is if I am wearing these Annie Costello Brown ones or these gorgeous Sophie Buhai Onyx sparklers in the evening…
These Cotopaxi Ara Joggers are my favorite pants to teach in and clients always ask where to get them…
I LOVE Aran’s second cookbook Cannelle et Vanille…
And the revised classic Tartine…
I just bought myself these Outdoor Research Stormtracker Sensor gloves. I love how low-profile they are and while they are not waterproof, they are well-suited for the damp cold PNW winter conditions that we’ll be in until April…
I bought this amazing jacket from local Seattle company Ebbet’s Field Flannels earlier this year. I think any of the women’s league satin windbreakers would make a pretty badass gift…
My husband would love James Turrell: A Retrospective…
He could also use another pair of his favorite Red Wing Heritage Chelsea Boots…
And this classic Carhartt Sandstone Sherpa-Lined Sierra Jacket…
I adore this Casper Glow Light which I wrote about back in September. It has been a complete game-changer especially with the dark winter mornings and I have not set an alarm since I got it. My friend Omar loves it too…
And then there is always and forever a beautiful bottle of champagne.
