Holiday Gift Ideas: For Her
If you're going big with a holiday gift for a special lady in your life...I say jewelry and bags. There is no one who doesn't like jewelry and bags. (Fine, that KitchenAid stand mixer works well, too.)

Heavens To Betsy, Yes
Eff those giraffe hats...
that is an octopus.
Reader Emiri sells them in her Etsy shop, and custom-made that adorable thing up there for my very own little octopus. And she's offering RG readers 10% off when they enter code RSGFAN at checkout.
Kendrick’s 2011 Video Game Guide
So Jordan asked me to put together a video game guide for her site. Now, why should you take my advice rather than going to Metacritic or IGN or Gamespot?
You shouldn't. If you've even heard of these sites, you don't need me.
But if the last thing you remember about video games is not being able to beat the quicksand level in Mario Brothers 3...you're in for it. (Up there, that's Jordan discovering the joys of MarioKart for the very first time, back in 2009. It was an epic evening.)
60% of people play video games each month. That's more people than go to the movies. And that doesn't mean that 60% of the population are Mountain Dew-swilling, desensitized, computer savant tweens. It means that you can pick up a video game even if you haven't played one in, well, ever, and it'll take care of you like you're a VIP.
