With Thanksgiving now behind us I am officially ready for the Christmas season! I am looking forward to walks through the neighborhood at night looking at Christmas lights with a warm beverage in one hand and dog leash or two in the other. Despite sighs from bah humbugs about the commercialization of Christmas I look forward to finding the perfect presents for those close to me, as well as, supporting some of my favorite businesses. I try to shop small business and local. Here are a few of my favorites that are sure to make your friend or loved one smile!
