Valentine’s Day and my birthday are approaching, and I know this time of year is stressful for my husband, so I’ve compiled a short list of appropriate gifts. He can feel free to pick and choose based on his tastes and the gift giving day.

I’ve been wanting a nice jewelry dish or ring holder, and I think this weiner dog ring holder is perfect.

I’ve also been telling Mike for the pasts six years that peppermint ice candy from Fannie May is my favorite candy. Hopefully this will be the year he gets the hint and buys a small box because I only break my diet on special holidays. Like my birthday.

I thought I was over buying Tiffany’s jewelry, but they’ve come out with a few things that I would love. The green quartz earrings, Elsa Peretti round earrings, and if we are suddenly independently wealthy, the Paloma Picasso sugar stacks ring collection.

I also told Mike he needs to take me to see Mary Poppins in Chicago. I saw it on Broadway last summer and loved not, so I need to see it again. I love Ashley Brown.

On to more reasonable gift requests, I’d would be excited to get a diamond key ring light, forget me not ring, I’m not a paper cup and sunjars. I’d also kind of loving the new Ugg rain boots in gold.

Obviously not an exhaustive list, but a nice start. Flowers and books are always crowd pleasers, too.

Good luck, Mike!
