With Thanksgiving right around the bend, we've compiled a list of our current faves that have us feeling both festive and thankful!
FRIDAY FAVES - 11.12.21
-If you've heard of the cryofacial, we're here to tell ya it's a pretty COOL treatment with even COOLER benefits. You might be wondering how vaporized nitrogen—used to freeze the face, could possibly be relaxing...but we're here to tell ya, it actually is! Say buh-bye to fine lines and wrinkles and inflammation and hello to tighter pores and boosted collagen. Now that's something we can be thankful for!
- This Autumn Harvest Honeycrisp and Feta Salad recipe has our mouths watering and our hearts bubblin' since the Honeycrisp apple was developed in Minnesota—the state we call home.
- Did you see the latest trailer for Stranger Things 4!? Summer 2022 seems pretty far away, but we're excited to pour some wine, pop some popcorn, and binge watch the new season!
- ICYMI our Turkey Day Wines Box has been suped up with some additionals...
We're feelin' all things COZY this Friday! There's just something about the temperatures dropping a bit that has us dreaming about the warm and toasty things in life.
FRIDAY FAVES - 11.5.21
- The Bearaby Weighted Blanket is both aesthetically appealing and oh so snuggly. We are loving the Cotton Napper in cloud white. These weighted snugglers have some amazing health benefits too—umm yes please! We could never say no to a GOOD night's sleep!
- If you're craving soup these days, we've got the perfect sourdough bites from Rustic Bakery. We're thinking a creamy tomato basil to dip those bites in! Customize your own Cépage box here and be sure to add them to your box or gift bag!
- Speaking of tomato basil soup... have you tried the Meinklang Burganland Red? It's an easy and snappy red that pairs incredibly with... you guessed it! Tomato soup! It has notes of cranberry, anise, basil, tomato leaf, and black currant. Give it a rip with your next home cooked meal or enjoy it on its own!...

Friday is here and Halloween is (almost) here too! Enjoy this week's list of faves, some are spookier than others!
FRIDAY FAVES - 10.29.21
- Need a little more decor for the trick-or-treaters ringing your bell this weekend? We are gushing over these Minnesota pumpkin patches. Talk about a fun way to spice things up, get out of the house and pick those perfect pumpkins with family and friends! Barten Pumpkins, Joyer Adventure Farm, and Whistling Well Farm are a couple of patches that caught our eye.
- Let's just say last week's Champagne Day is really turning into Champagne month... yours too!? Perfect. We've got the Pop, Sparkle, Fizz box ready for your unfizzled palate. Clink, clink!
- Move over caramel rolls, this Spooky Pumpkin Spiced Buns with Spiderweb Glaze recipe just may be the best way to kick off Halloween festivites.
- Prepare for a post-Halloween WINE-D down—grab the Un-WINE-d Box from our sister company, Cépage. This custom wood box is filled with all of the necesseties...

- This might just be the best popcorn hack ever: DIY microwave popcorn in your Stasher bag! Try it yourself or pass the info on to your favorite college student.
- Super excited about this comedic disaster film, Don't Look Up. Meryl Streep, Leo, Jonah Hill AND Jennifer Lawrence?! Sounds like a blast.
