Custom Laser Engraved Moleskine
OK, everyone in the world. You know how you’re always asking me what to get as a relatively inexpensive but cool gift for employees? And you know how I always tell you to just give them the cash instead? OK, I have a new idea.
This! Get them this. Then tuck some cash inside.

Bubbies Pickles
My friend Sara puts together these amazing Fantasy Burger Nights where you can have a burger exactly how you want it. For me, the ideal burger is all about the pickle, and I discovered Bubbies on our grocery run. Bubbies are fresh, crunchy, spicy, salty perfection. If you appreciate a good dill pickle, you’ll find yourself hoarding these.

Piper Sonoma Brut
I’m a sparkling wine fan, and this is the bottle I turn to for mini celebrations: first picnic of spring, crossing the last item from my to do list, finally vacuuming out the car. Also, the heavier base makes it easier to balance on the grass next to your lawn chair. Bonus.

Gorgeous small-batch salami made by hand in the Bay Area. They cold-cure the meats, giving them less salt and more time. Everything Boccalone makes is “seasoned by hand, tied by hand, hung by hand, checked by hand, and packaged by hand.”
From their hands to my mouth.
