Happy weekend and happy almost-Christmas, friends! Scroll below for my latest roundup in wine, food, lifestyle, design and travel.

The 11 Minute Lifesaver

Take it up to 11. A new study shows people who sit all day (hello, WFH) can improve their health with just 11 minutes of exercise. We will take that!

Mulholland Drive Oasis

Obsessed with this home from the designer duo behind projects for celebs like Jon Hamm. Marrying old and new throughout was at the heart of the home’s design scheme, where traditional and modern elements meet with neutral colors, a limited materials palette, and furniture with character and soul.

Tiny Charcuterie

Charcuterie boards – everyone’s favorite! While they’ve certainly gotten bigger and more elaborate over recent years, like this picture, this article also explores miniature charcuteries that fit on the size of a cracker or in the palm of their beholder. This is all just a bit odd to me!

The $100k Mona Lisa Viewing

An anonymous bidder just paid $98,000 to see the Mona Lisa out of its case during an annual inspection…taking an appreciation for art to the next level!

Eggnog Cocktails

Make the most of this seasonal treat while you can! Whether you’re looking for a homemade eggnog recipe or a twist on the holiday drink – hit the link for some favorite ways to drink (or eat!) eggnog.

Vintage Aviation Art Inspires Travel

Back when flying was a luxury! Many international graphic design luminaries, such as Massimo Vignelli, Ivan Chermayeff, Otl Aicher and Saul Bass, helped to drive the airlines’ cutting-edge designs and campaigns. See their work here.

Best Movies of 2020

Some inspiration – because, what else do you have to do with all that free time over the holidays?!
I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday this year! Merry Merry.

Great list this week! I just read through all of the movies and made a list of which ones to watch 🙂
Thanks Sara! I did the same!
