I love a gift guide, if only to know about the sheer amount of stupid and stupidly useful stuff. I’ll keep this short but I wanted to share some things I’ve found or would find extremely useful.

For Teachers (but not your kid’s teacher)

Every teacher probably has access to free, terrible school supplies - what they might not have is the Cadillac of pencil sharpeners, or a stapler that isn’t a piece of crap. Do they have a Bluetooth clicker? Something I resisted forever but actually changed my life? And if you’re looking for stocking stuffers, might I recommend large boxes of already sharpened pencils? Or a colorful stack of Post-It notes?

For People Who Want To Be Perceived In The Dark

It’s dark and scary out there, sometimes even at 4 in the afternoon. Surely you know someone who might want to run, walk, or generally exist outside. They need a light up vest. Not only does this thing make you more safe, the kids also think it’s very cool.

For People With Holes In Their Ears

They need some flatback studs. The end.

For All Season Runners

These are my favorite gloves, that work for anything from 15ish - 45 degrees. A Brighton base layer never hurts either. (They run small.)

For People Who Are Always Cold

A Norsari. The end.

That’s all I’ve got for now - except to say, if you want a holiday card in the mail and I don’t have your address, drop it here!
