Archive for December 21st, 2011The holidays sure have brought an onslaught of distracting delights, both office-based, in the form of daily cookies and cakes, and Web-based, in the form of the gift guides we pitch and assiduously scour for our own gift ideas. Added to those is the profusion of deal sites showcasing gifts tasty and trendy, outlandish and last-minute. Gilt Groupe deals take on a new luster when I sense they might satisfy one of my trickier gift recipients. Our own client, Kusmi Tea’s, website – I have to admit – has fulfilled much of my own last-minute gift list-checking. Kusmi gets my vote for the pretty presents award, at least under my Christmas tree. My favorite in the ‘outlandish’ category is probably A Small World’s ‘Favourite Experiential Gifts’ guide, which highlights such generous goodies as a Zero Gravity Flight on the Boeing 727-400 G Force One starting at $3,675 and the Momentum Adventure: trekking through mountain passes in Mongolia, crossing the deserts of Jordan, or canoeing through the Yukon… these are for the faint neither of heart nor of wallet. And so it’s a period of plenty… of receipts, daily distractions, calories and inspiration. From everyone at Colangelo & Partners, we wish for you all that it is also a period of plenty of warm moments with family and friends and of good food and drink, and the beginning of a joyful, prosperous New Year.
