Hi my friends!
There are so many things about this season, today, and the last few months that have just blown my mind. I mean, the subject of 2020 is different post for another day (lol). I guess what I’m trying to say is that, somehow, we are already nine days away from Christmas Day!
Longtime blog readers might remember that I used to publish a series of Holiday Gift Guides every year. They’re a lot of fun to put together, but they are pretty time consuming, and this year just didn’t seem like the right time to go all in with it.
That said, here I am, nine days until “unboxing day” … still shopping online trying to get things to the right places in time. So, since some of you might be able to relate with people still left on your shopping list this year, I thought it would be good to take a break and share my best finds and ideas here to hopefully save you some time!
Below you will see different gift guides categorized by interest for her, for him, for families, for fitness enthusiasts, and for foodies. I’ll keep it simple and share my Top Five in each category at different price points.
Everything on this list has been purchased by myself, Scott, is something very similar, or is one one of our wishlist items for ourselves or to gift others.
I hope you find this helpful, and please feel free to share some of your favorite gifts you’ve purchased this year in the comments, too.
Here we go!
