They are here!
The s&h gift guides are always a labor of love – I never recommend anything that I have not seen or tried myself or anything that I would not be happy to give or receive as a gift.
This year you have the following to choose from: the now traditional French(ie) Gift Guide for the aspiring Francophiles in your life; the Foodie Gift Guide that also doubles as a great source for Secret Santa gifts; The Traveller Gift Guide for family and friends that you may not see enough; and the Host(ess) Gift Guide to mail or to bring with you for a holiday stay.
As always, I encourage you to click around and get some fun ideas that will make holiday gifting both easy and interesting this year.
