I recently gave $150 gift card to REI as a gift for a 20-something who likes to go rock climbing. She was thrilled.

Why can’t she walk? Better for her health, safer and no theft risk.

I ask my kid of that age for a wish list.

They are often picky, yet need alot. And gifts for that age can be pricey.

Since they like to camp and hike, how about an "America the Beautiful" national park pass?

Fun fact, women are allowed to read sci-fi too.

My DS is getting a sleeping bag from north face (thanks cyber Monday) and a bunch of needed clothes. Also got tix to for him and DH to go to a capitals game, which he has never done before.

My DD is getting some home stuff from Anthropologie (again thanks cyber Monday), lots of clothes and a perfume that she wanted.

For him - Patagonia Snap T, Nike dunks, flannel shirt jacket lined with fleece or sherpa, henley shirts.

For her - Ugg Tazz slippers if you can find them, Alo yoga accolade sweatpants and hoody or sweatshirt, Jenny bird bubble initial necklace, any sweater from Reformation, the book Adelaide (so good) or any book by Jodi Piccoult.


I loved the book Adelaide
