There are actually 29 shopping days till Christmas, so the pressure is on. I know the first thing to do is to buy/make and send holiday cards, though in this age of email is the snail-mailed card headed for irrelevance? So if I choose email, I still need to design a card.
I abhor Black Fridays and any kind of shopping mania where people are trampled and aggression is the rule. I hate sloppy counters and long lines and hassled people. I will shop at small shops in NoHo and Chinatown or happily find obscure objects online.
