I love stocking stuffers. They are the best part of Christmas. There’s just nothing quite like an affordable gift that’s funny or useful or chic (or maybe all three). So here is Part One of my stocking stuffer gift guides, where nothing costs more than $30.
As we age, our holiday gifting list explodes with people. You have in-laws, friends, friends’ kids, and work colleagues. That’s why we’re all looking for affordable, thoughtful gifts. So here is a list of under-$75 home gifts that includes no scented candles. You could give these gifts to almost anyone and they’re nice enough to […]
The definition of a bad gift is when you get a gift that men are supposed to like, but you don’t. Every year, Abra sends me a list of men’s gift guides from popular influencers, and I stand aghast at all of the shaving kits, bottles of mediocre Bourbon, and drones. This year, she sent […]

The older you get, the more important your girlfriends become. Oddly, you also have less time for them. My best friends and I mostly just ping-pong memes back and forth in our DMs all day. This is quality time with your friends in your 40s. So get the woman who sends the best memes, who […]
As much as I love giving gifts (and I am excellent at it), I am also terrible to shop for. If I wanted it, I probably bought it. I usually research my purchases so I want this version, instead of that version. As a result, if I don’t tell people what I want for a […]
This year, I really wanted to host a Favorite Things party. If you’re not familiar with these parties, the concept is simple: every attendee brings a gift, usually something under $15, that they really love, and they bring enough for everyone. So at the end of the night, everyone leaves with a few new “must […]

Another holiday season is upon us. My Christmas decorations only partially came down last year, so I’m already half done! (It’s important to define success in your own way.) But as the holidays are just around the corner, I decided to start gift guides this week, instead of waiting until after Thanksgiving. Because if the […]
When I was little, I loved giving my Mom Mother’s Day Gifts. Handmade cards, school projects, and rose bushes from the Kmart Garden Center. Now that I’m a Mom, I really don’t need a gift. (I just need Sloane to sleep through the night.????) But it is still nice to buy Mom something to show […]
Back by overwhelming demand — or at least Abra told me there was demand in order to get me to write this — welcome to Kyle’s Gift Guide 2023. (Yeah, I really had to twist his arm. *eyeroll*) I’ve spent a few days reviewing the other gift guides and it appears many influencers still don’t […]
