My closest loved ones (the only ones I can spend this much on) are getting certificates for massages this year. Between the extra stress of the last couple of years on everyone and the fact that massage providers have been struggling financially in Covid times, it feels like a win-win. For people who don’t seem like they’d be into straight-up massage, there are other varieties — eg, my elderly mom is getting one that’s mostly “healing touch” and my sporty husband will be getting something that’s more a stretching/training lesson in how not to get so sore after workouts.

Where do you get your truffle salt?

I also like bay leaf wreaths from this company:

Thank you for the bluequail recommendation - Just purchased a bay leaf & bubbly package to be sent to my daughter's tutor. You can even pre-select a delivery date. I love crossing things off the list!!!

It’s old school, but I ordered Honey Baked Hams for my dad and FIL for Father’s Day and they were a HUGE hit for the 70+ crowd (PS - remember Hamgate 2020? EPIC. I’m gonna thrive that thread because it had me dying of laughter).

I don’t know but I did see that and thought it was a good idea!!!

My husband is an English tea and toast guy, and he loved it last year. There are some interesting/different flavors.
