Dinosaur Gifts, a Modcloth Shoutout

This is a totally bonus gift post, courtesy of all the amazing dinosaur stuff that I found on Modcloth. I kept running into it while creating my other gift guides and decided it needed a post all of its own. This is not sponsored by Modcloth, although let there be no doubt I would lose…

Cozy Gifts for the Homebody

The last few years has seen an uptick in the number of posts related to cozy, warm gifts. Gifts for the person who likes to be home. I don't know if that is because of the hygge trend or if my demographic has switched and media knows that really all people my age just want…

Gift Ideas for Jetsetters

When we were prepping to go to India, Zach and I finally realized "wow, we have a decent amount of gear." We finally have traveled enough and invested to the point that we have stuff that we love and makes it much easier to go around the world. Honestly, this is one of the few…
