5 Things We Love Right Now

by

Lynn & Liana Board

I love entertaining, and things that bring ease and beauty to the process win me over. I have embraced and am appreciating the charcuterie trend of late. While I am certain my kids could care less how the food is set out, I do relish reaching for my round cheese paddle acacia board from Lynn & Liana Designs. It beautifies my spread with a fun, artistic flair. Pssst: For a special treat, boards can be engraved! LynnLiana.com

Cookie Making Tools from Ann Clark

’Tis the season for all the baking! We make and decorate sugar cookies every year at Christmas, and I cannot speak highly enough of the things I have used from Ann Clark. The Perfect Cookie Rolling Pin is the best tool to ensure my dough is all the same thickness. Try the food coloring gel and you’ll never go back to counting drops, and the nonchemical, precut parchment paper is simply the best. I haven’t even raved yet about the darling shapes of cookie cutters—from cocoa mugs to llamas. We love using their things in the kitchen. The company is family-owned and products are made in the USA, which I value! AnnClarkCookieCutters.com

Watch

This watch intrigued me. An incredible gift crafted from recycled ocean plastics, the Wave Collection is something I had to try out. I’m all for repurposing and love that something I look to daily could actually help clean up the great outdoors. It is made from ocean-bound plastic that’s been reclaimed and recycled. The watch is timeless, durable and water resistant. Mine is a simple black, which I personally love as I experience decision fatigue in plenty of other areas. Armitron.com

Lord of the Rings Game

Our family loves board games. We also love Tolkien’s writings. Excited to play, my 10-year-old opened the game, read the instructions and prepared the pieces. This is unlike any game I can recall playing—we all worked together to win the game. Our family reaches for it often because we’re competing together as we navigate Frodo to Mount Doom. If your family loves games, I highly recommend this! ThamesAndKosmos.com

Pajamas

Matching jammies? Yes, please! Once a year is all I ask. The options at Lazy One are extensive and terrific. We all love this moose plaid—even Willoughby, our dog. The pajamas are festive, snuggle-ready and incredibly comfy. The fabric is soft and washes well. The kids are happy, and I am thrilled! You will find me snuggled under the softest matching plaid/sherpa reversible blanket ever, embracing the season. LazyOne.com
