For the Caviar Lover
Caviar Tin Candle
This oversized caviar tin candle from Tsar Nicoulai is not only fragrant but ideal for any caviar lover. The Sage and Rosemary scent blends eucalyptus, rosemary, and fresh sage, making it a cozy winter staple disguised as a giant caviar tin. It looks great on a counter, smells delicious, and is guaranteed to make any caviar lover smile.

Modern Picnic Luncher x The Caviar Co.
A holiday collab made for anyone who believes in bringing their caviar in style. Modern Picnic’s hand-painted, insulated Luncher gets the full caviar treatment, and while you could buy the bag or the caviar separately, why wouldn’t you go all out with The Caviar Co’s ounce of Osetra, a mother-of-pearl spoon, and a gold tin keychain tucked inside.

For the Home Chef
Lettuce Grow Counterstand Set
If you’ve ever wished for a Lettuce Grow setup that works in any size space, this is the one. The Counterstand is a true game changer, giving you fresh herbs and greens right on your kitchen counter. (I keep mine stocked with chives at all times for at-home caviar service!) The design is clean and display-worthy, and the whole system is incredibly simple to use. It is farm-to-table freshness without leaving your kitchen.

Magic Stuff All-Purpose Seasoning
The Magic Stuff seasoning from Hitching Post II has become a staple in our kitchen. We picked it up on our last visit to Santa Ynez Valley and haven’t stopped using it since. It’s great on the grill and honestly tastes good on just about everything. A perfect stocking stuffer or an easy add to a curated goods basket when you want a little taste of Hitching Post II at home.

Messermeister x Esther Choi Precision Shears
These Precision Shears make quick work of seafood, herbs, and all the small kitchen jobs that need a sharp, reliable tool. The titanium coated blades stay aligned, the push button release makes cleaning easy, and all the built in features like the herb stripper and claw cracker make them surprisingly handy. It is the kind of tool you end up reaching for constantly, plus a women owned company I come back to year after year for the quality.

For anyone who has ever wanted to enjoy a favorite vintage without removing the cork, this is the gift.

It works with natural corks and screw caps, making it a sleek, practical way to explore special bottles at your own pace.

Amryn Pinot Noir 2021
A refined red with a silky finish, pretty and elegant without feeling fussy. The 2021 Pinot Noir is balanced, inviting, and an easy choice for any gathering or as a thoughtful holiday gift.
It also holds a special place for me personally. We chose this as our wedding wine, and not only did Amryn’s Kara pour it herself, we sent guests home with bottles at the end of the night. It is a wine tied to one of our favorite memories.

Food-Themed Fun
Larissa Loden Jewelry
If you love gifts that lean playful, quirky, and a little bit food obsessed, Larissa Loden’s jewelry collection is the place to go wild. Her butter stud earrings have been a longtime favorite of mine, but the lineup goes far beyond that. Shrimp studs, tiny butcher knives, pasta huggie hoops. It is a full culinary mood board in jewelry form, and somehow it all works.
And because she thinks of everything, there is even a caviar jewelry organizer to store them all. Yes, please. Honestly, I could buy out the entire site. This is the kind of “add to cart for holiday shopping” moment that turns into personal shopping very quickly.

It is playful, easy to bring out with friends, and guaranteed to spark a little friendly chaos.
