🤶🏽 7 Superlative Gifts Ideas You'll Want for Yourself
2023 Is the "Year of the Rear" with Bidets Making Booties Sing + More
These are gifts I’ve given, received and loved this year. I hope one puts a smile on you or someone you love. Happiest of holidays to you and yours!
1. 🚽 Bio Bidet Bliss BB2000 Smart Toilet Seat, Unlimited Warm Water, Vortex Wash, Bidet Seat w /Remote Control
My life now has two distinct time eras:
B.B. (Before Bidet aka The Dark Ages)
A.B. (After Bidet aka The Enlightenment)
This was a 50th birthday gift from a bestie who needed me to shut up about my bowel movements elevating into religious experiences.
I’d been staying at an Air BNB with these plug-n-play toilet seat bidets over the summer.
I never wanted to leave and be forced to poop like a peasant again!
Here’s my rationalization for this ridiculous luxury:
Granted, it was gifted to me but…
…when we get biohazard on our hands we don’t just wipe them with dry paper product and carry on (I hope). We wash them thoroughly with warm+ water. The same should go for our bungholios and other undercarriage bits.
Clean as a whistle, frens. No need to be bummed about the after-shower surprise shadoobies now, either!
Also, a warm toilet seat on a cold morning truly does make you feel like a queen on a throne. Heavy is the head whose cheeks have a chill.
2. $ to $$ ☕️ Provision Coffee Christmas Cactus Blend

Some of you frens may know I’m particular about coffee. Provision rings all my bells.
Maybe it will deck your halls, too! Or, stuff the stocking of someone equally as discerning about their beans.
Whatever holiday traditions you observe, it’s always better with a killer cup of properly roasted coffee.

3. $ 💦LifeStraw Personal Water Filter for Hiking, Camping, Travel, and Emergency Preparedness
I’ve gotten into some hairy situations, weird weather events and found myself stranded in the strangest places the past few years. Luckily, I had the Lifestraw.

4. $ 📚♥️ “A Handful of Earth, A Handful of Sky: The World of Octavia Butler” - Lynell George
This book is a piece of art unto itself. My most gifted book this year so act surprised when yours arrives.
If you or someone you love is set to fulfill any kind of calling in the New Year, this book makes a great companion on the journey.
“A Handful of Earth, A Handful of Sky: The World of Octavia E. Butler offers a blueprint for a creative life from the perspective of award-winning science-fiction writer and "MacArthur Genius" Octavia E. Butler.
It is a collection of ideas about how to look, listen, breathe―how to be in the world. This book is about the creative process, but not on the page; its canvas is much larger.Author Lynell George not only engages the world that shaped Octavia E. Butler, she also explores the very specific processes through which Butler shaped herself―her unique process of self-making.”

5. $$$ 💪🏾 Versa Gripps Wrist Straps
For you or the lifter in your life, these will take your mind-muscle connection next level with pulling exercises like deadlifts or pull ups. There are both men’s and women’s sizes with various colors.
Too often our grips give out before the muscles we’re actually trying to train do. Versa Gripps keep you connected for a higher rep count… where it counts!
Be sure to select the right size for your wrists and avoid the knockoffs!
6. $ 🐺🎴Werewolf, an Addictive, Exciting Social Game
Super fun and hilarious for your holiday gatherings. Ages 15+. A social deduction/deception game that also quite entertaining to watch, doesn’t take long and accommodates 7-30 players.
7. $$ 🐶 Durable Dog Puzzle Toys by West Paw
Puppers need presents, too! ♥️🐾
Very few toys survive more than ten minutes with Lenny. That’s why I love West Paw toys. They’re a little more expensive but they last… even more than Kongs.
Not only do their puzzle toys provide mental enrichment to keep Lenny occupied and out of doggy jail while I’m working, they’re also non-toxic, recyclable, dishwasher safe, and Made in the USA.
