Recommendations of the Week: December 12th

Welcome back to another edition of Recommendations of the Week. Since we are nearing ever closer to Christmas I figured I'd do a couple for holiday season related recommendations.





Gift Idea: Magazine Subscription

It's getting close to Christmas and you still can't come up with a good idea for a present, well how about a magazine subscription? To me it is near the ideal gift. It's not too costly (especially with all the holiday season deals) and it's like you are giving that person a present every single month/week, plus you are supplying the person with something that they are interested in (presuming you get them the right subscription) which makes the gift more personal. So if you need a great idea, this might just be it.


Beverages: Everything Hot!

Yes the weather is getting colder and colder with each passing day, but that doesn't have to be a bad thing! Now you have an even better excuse to test out every type of coffee/hot chocolate/tea/etc. beverage out there! Just remember what you're buying, if you start trying everything at Starbucks then you might just have given up all the money you planned to spend on gifts.




Activity: Skiing

December brings the opening of most mountains and the start of the ski season for many. Sure December skiing can be a little wet and the snow base causes all sorts of grief to your skies, but hey, skiing is skiing.

Recommendations of the Week: September 19th

Welcome back to more recommendations. Since we're only days away from the changing of seasons and the beginning of fall, it's only suiting that we talk about some fall related things. Let's begin.





Coffee Time!:

In the spring and summer I can't go near any hot beverages like coffee or tea or hot chocolate, etc. So it's actually quite nice when the summer ends and the colder weather comes back. With fall comes winter and winter brings on my old routine of daily cappuccinos and the like. Of course it's a bad habit considering the expense, so that's why I end up usually buying a box of tea for a few bucks and using that for a while. I especially like buying the boxes that come with a bunch of different flavours because then it's like I'm having something new and exciting everyday without actually having to go out and buy anything- it saves time and money, and what's better then that? Anyways when it gets cold head out and pick up something, whether it be a coffee or tea or really whatever floats your boat, its a great way to start and finish your day.
