It’s that time again.  The chill is in the air, the smell of leaves will soon turn to the smell of pine garlands and cinnamon.  The Thanksgiving turkey roasting in the oven will invite friends and family into our homes.  It’s a busy time of year and a time for connection, reflection and celebration.  Our calendars are filled with holiday parties and our blackberries hold the list of gifts to give.  It can get a bit stressful, especially when you throw in the holiday traffic jams and the crowded malls and stores.

That’s why I’m a firm believer in buying everything online during the holidays.  It is much more efficient.  That doesn’t always solve the problem of WHAT to give, though - especially for those who have everything (like my husband).  I think I’ve finally found the answer: order luxury spirits online.  It works sort of like the way you order flowers for someone across the country.  I place my order at www.luxurybar.com, and they send my order to the local package store and that store delivers my gift to my friend.  They even put it in a gorgeous gift package.
