It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, 'each the other's world entire,' are sustained by love. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. They have nothing just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food-and each other. Their destination is the coast, although they don’t know what, if anything, awaits them there. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. Not ready for The Last of Us Season 1 to be over with the finale March 12?

Listening for subtle hints and cues, I slowly curate unique items and experiences that I hope will make my people feel “seen.” The hardest person to buy for? My 15-year-old son, hands down. Every holiday season, I strive to find the perfect presents for the people I love-it’s something I look forward to every year.
