Christmas In Paris

The last thing you want to hear the day after Christmas is holiday music. The presents are open, the wine is gone, there’s a bunch of leftovers in the fridge that you can’t even imagine going near, and the smell of eggnog turns your stomach.

So…we did things a little different with our holiday mixtape, which should take you through the new year and beyond. We each picked one of our favorite remixes from the past year and posted them below. Don’t expect this thing to flow very well, it’s pretty damn random, which is expected since we all have different tastes.

Cheers.

As a followup to my Holiday gift post, here is a nice list of fairly inexpensive design gifts. Some of it quite ridiculous, some of it quite useful; like the reusable bags from baggu.
