Every year I ask my husband what he wants for Christmas, and every year he says “nothing.” Sound familiar? This list of gifts for him is for every dad, brother, partner, and father-in-law who claims he doesn’t need anything. From a smoked cocktail kit to an old school video camera to the neck and back massager that might actually change his life, these are the gifts that’ll win Christmas morning.
Whether you’re shopping for your bestie, sister, mama, mother-in-law, or (let’s be honest) yourself, this year’s list of gifts for her is full of things I’d be thrilled to unwrap. From cozy picks like the dreamiest lounge set to everyday sparkle like these petite diamond huggies under $200, plus a few fun surprises like a leather-bound mahjong guide for the friend who just started playing, there’s something here for every style and every budget.
I make a lot of sheet pan salmon dinners...like, a lot lol, but last night’s throw-together version was 10/10. It was one of those dinners when I tossed together what we had in the fridge and somehow ended up with magic. The whole family devoured it (minus my daughter, who is getting less picky by the week but still draws a hard line at fish, ugh).
This cozy recipe from my cookbook, Garden Grown, has become a favorite in our house, and, from what I’ve heard in my DMs, in kitchens all over the country too. It has everything you want in a tomato soup: warmth, nostalgia, and classic comfort-food flavor.
My dairy-free twist gets its creamy texture from white beans and olive oil instead of cream, making it just as satisfying but a little lighter.
