A Few of Our Favorite Things
Take the stress out of shopping by giving what you love
R
aindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens? Er, not so much. But,
buying presents for everyone on your
list is a blast when you stop trying to
guess what they might want and just share something you love. Here are 10 things CityView���s
editors are giving as gifts this year. For purchasing information see page 53.
Rebekah���s Gifts
���Sweet Tea Please:
Recipes and
Recollections from
Coastal Carolina��� $23
My sister-in-law gave
me this cookbook a
few years ago and I���ve
used it so much that
it���s practically falling
apart. I���ve made most
every recipe in the
book and have yet to
be disappointed, and
the author���s vignettes
are relatable to anyone
who grew up in the
South.

L.L. Bean Custom Boat
and Tote Bag $40 - $60
You���ve seen it
everywhere,
it���s good for
everything and
everybody loves
it. You can pick
the size, the
colors and the
handle style
to customize
it, and have it
monogrammed
�����which will
make you seem very
thoughtful.

Uncle George���s
Pie Company
$15 for one
pie
CityView
featured
Uncle
George���s
Pie Company
earlier this year
��� and we learned
just how good a pie can
be. The father & son team sell pies, cakes, cookies and
muffins out of a food truck, and everything they make
is delicious (but I���m especially partial to the Sweet
Potato Pie.) They also deliver.

Shiseido Eyelash
Curler $19
I love to give
little luxuries
�����things that
aren���t especially
expensive, but
that someone
might not be willing
to buy for themselves.
This eyelash curler has
already been wrapped up and
given to one person on my list.

Riedel Stemless Wine
Glasses $20 for 2
I love these glasses
because they fit so well
in the dishwasher.
There, I said it. I want
to drink wine from a
delicate glass, but I
hate handwashing
stemware. The solution:
Stemless glasses.
