Summary

A few weeks ago, I Instagrammed about our family's ten-year Giftless Holiday tradition. We started it to save money. We continued it to save time. We do it now to prevent waste. There was so much response and discussion on this post that we decided to podcast about it. In this week’s podcast, we’re shifting from our usual food talk to a discussion about gift-giving. (We're not The Grinch, and we’re definitely not anti-gift!) Tune in to hear: What caused us to make this choice (and how it has evolved over the years) How we are handling it with our kids Why we're focusing on gifting experiences How we're creating the holiday we want to have Tune in! And as I always say, "Take what resonates, leave the rest."
