Now that I am back home and starting to plan out my holiday menus for family and friends, it’s time to start thinking about what I will be serving. I LOVE being the host for the holidays. I take a lot of pride in creating special memories for those I love. From the delicious food, to classic cocktails, the holidays are about special moments for me as I get older. J.P. Wiser’s brought Catherine along on a special trip earlier this year, and I recently found my own bottle of J.P. Wiser’s Triple Barrel Rye while tidying up the office.

Not many people have actually heard of the term ophthalmology and if they did, it wouldn’t be an easy job to imagine how exactly they study eye care, or how they carry out their daily work.

As we approach the season of giving, SEPHORA should be your first stop to stock up on stalking stuffers, gift sets, and amazing spa products. A friend recently mentioned that she had found an amazing product to make her lashes pop, it was serum from Xlash, or somewhere like that. My point is that Sephora is the best place to find little must-haves like that which are perfect to pop in stockings. Here are my top selections for the makeup junky and spa fanatic in your life.
