If you're expected a holiday present from me, it's likely namedropped in here, my story about holiday shopping in NYC, which published this weekend in the Globe and Mail. And no, you're not getting the Taytu tie-dyed handbag. (That's what I want for myself; Santa, take note!) Read it here and here.

There oodles of news at Sophie Donelson HQ today. In ascending order: Two items of note in the New York Times Home section today. First is an article I wrote about VOOS, a new furniture store in Williamsburg. (Thank you to designer Andrew Rumpler for tipping me off.) Right across the page--and next up in the Currents slide show--is a story about Flip For Decorating, the top-secret decorating book that I worked on last winter, which showcases the genius of author Elizabeth Mayhew, who's as multi-talented as Martha (she decorates! and writes! and cooks!)--and charming and sincere to boot. Finally, the biggie news: This summer I'd editing Hamptons Cottages & Gardens magazine. It was HC&G that gave me my entree to NYC publishing back in 2002 and I'm thrilled to return as editor this season. I'm scouting for news, products and ideas pertaining to design on the East End, so don't hesitate to send ideas. See you on the Jitney!
