Friday's suggestion....

Today's gift idea...clarified by a strong cup of coffee.

I always think about what's appropiate for my babysitters. It always has to be a notch above just practical, but must have enough dazzle to be festive, but not too much that they can't enjoy it every day. I really think these simple, clean hoops fit the bill. Gold Plated Ashby Hoops. $ 68. Also available in Silver.

Crisp , Clean...smells like ...Christmas!

We just got our holiday shipment of Frasier Fir scents from Thymes. It's so addictive, I keep hovering by the table to get a fresh whiff. Perfect for those who are not going to have a christmas tree to get that clean piney scent. A great gift for guys and gals alike. $ 72 for the diffuser ( which, I swear, lasts 2 months minimum ) or $32 for the candle. A great gift for office co-workers...maybe they'll share their snacks with you if they get a great gift like this.
