    I feel like I’ve done all my shopping with Hanukah coming so early. But I do have a few more gifts to buy. Thanks for this list.

    What a way to get into the holiday spirit!
    I love your wonderful selection of holiday hostess gifts and stocking stuffers. I often struggle with what to give so these ideas are a great starting point. I especially love #10. Keep calm and pour me some wine.” I feel like you know my friends. (smile)
