The Best Gifts for the Yoga Lover Who Has It All

November 12, 2021

Tip of the Day

If you use vinegar in your laundry, try putting it in the fabric softener dispenser to naturally soften your clothes.

Happy Friday! I like wishing all of you a happy-every-day but it’s sure a lot easier to wish people a happy Friday than a happy Monday, it’s true. Let’s dig into the fun goodies in today’s newsletter and some highlights from the last week.

In holiday mood? this fragrant simmer pot trick will help your whole house smell like Christmas. If your good-smells baking trick is to actually, you know, bake, then definitely try “blind baking” your next pie.

If you live in a part of the country that gets dry and cold in the winter, the holiday season comes with a downside: dry skin, a scratchy throat, and other side effects of really dry air. Which makes it a perfect time to start using a humidifier for increased comfort and health. (On that topic: Amazon is having a big sale on skincare creams today, so now might be a good time to stock up on moisturizers like Eucerin Advanced Repair Lotion to stay hydrated this winter.)

On the topic of the dry winter weather and the holidays though, if you’re shopping for gifts we’re still going strong with our Holiday 2021 Gift Guide. Everyday Lifesavvy, Review Geek, and How-To Geek add more great gift suggestions to the collection—like the best gifts for the yoga lover that has it all.

Here are some other highlights from the week:

• Should you cover your AC unit for the winter? Here’s the scoop.
• Over-the-top home office decor? It’s the new trend.
• Frozen dish soap is a clever cleaning hack.
• Beloved Clarisonic facial brushes are no more, here’s what to buy instead.
• Shopping for an air fryer? Check these models out.

And water cooler trivia? As always, we have some. If you’ve seen photos of beautiful stone arches in the desert, you’ve likely seen pictures of Arches National Park. On this day in 1929, the park, located in eastern Utah, was established as a national monument. Also on this day, in 1931, the Abbey Road Studios in London opened. Nearly forty years later the location would become internationally famous with the release of The Beatles album Abbey Road.
