Forget the paper plates, they aren’t earth-friendly anyways. Instead pull out your indoor dishes, everyday cutlery, and glassware for an elegant but unpretentious tablescape and layer it. I used creamy white table linen under a vintage lace cloth and linen napkins found at thrift stores and antique markets. The light linens let the greenery take centre stage.

Sofia, who recited her vows in the palace’s private chapel, has joined one of Europe’s most historic families and is in line to become the next Duchess of Alba. The title was famously held by Cayetana Rivera, Fernando’s flamboyant grandmother, who held more titles than anyone else in the world.

“I still see a lot of the fast-food stuff, Styrofoam cups, single-use water bottles, straws, balloons, same old thing, over and over again,” Huff said.

I was listening to the radio station K-Love as I was driving to work in my 1997 barely-hanging-on Saturn station wagon (they said it would last me a year, and I got 10 out of it!). As I was pulling into the restaurant where I had recently landed a job as a server, “We want to send you home for Christmas!” sounded a man’s voice across the radio waves. My pulse quickened. I parked and grabbed a pen and sales receipt. K-Love was offering a fully paid airfare-included trip to anywhere in the USA to send the winners of their essay contest to wherever they called home. The subject was, of course, “Why should we send you?”

We received the Women’s Winter Box and as regular beach-goers were very pleased with the contents. Our box contained an Alternative Apparel sweatshirt, Pirette dry body oil, Salty Cali shell necklace, Corduroy California mug, 3-pack of assorted teas, Krochet Kids Intl. knit beanie, Richer Poorer socks, and an Aloha ‘Aina candle. The box was nicely packaged, making it a perfect option for a gift for the beach-goer in your life or a little self-love present. The items in the box were not only fun, but practical for the winter season and long days at the beach. We give it two shakas to the sky. Use code ASN20 for $20 off your first box.

The free exhibit, curated by Megaphone PHX art space, includes a sweeping rendering of downtown, complete with familiar landmarks like the Westward Ho. Visit the Travis Ivey website. Lynn Trimble

No evergreen scents here. Homesick describes the aroma of its Jewish Christmas candle as “buttered popcorn and a movie at the local theatre followed by an overindulgence of Chinese food with friends and family.” If that’s how your family spends Christmas, this is your candle. Homesick also makes a Hanukkah candle with notes of potato latke and jelly doughnut.

When I showed it to my “better half,” he agreed it was the thought that counts, because we knew Dad would have no recollection of the necklace or its beautiful engraved saying. Eventually I threw the page away, but secretly wished it would have been a gift from Dad years ago when he was, in my eyes, the man with all the answers and know-how.
