What’s your favorite Christmas movie? Scrooged? Elf? Home Alone? We, of course, love National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. And, our darkhorse candidate is Muppet Christmas Carol. But, it’s the holidays, which means that we needn’t limit ourselves. We have time. We can watch them all. Whatever your pleasure, the Amazon Fire TV will scour the annals of the internet to and deliver it in 1080p glory to your television. Get the blankets. Heat the cocoa. We’ll see you again in 2015.

The holidays are all about eating. Seriously, this year, we got three Thanksgiving dinners. Three turkeys. Three hefty scoops of mashed potatoes. Three pumpkin pies. And, meatballs—one side of the family is Italian, so they also have meatballs. We at G@H love to eat. But, we also believe that bona fide gentlemen cook. They bake. They grill. They sauté and steam. We celebrate artisanal cooking. We champion products that make it easier—and nothing, we mean nothing, beats a superb set of cookware. Looking for the perfect gift for that amateur chef? Let us suggest the Aurora Stainless Steel Cookware Set by Zwilling J.A. Henckels. These are amazing pots and pans. We just got them. It’s like we used to see in black and white, and now, we see color. Next year, we’re hosting. Actually, no. But, we’ll make something, and...

The holiday season is a time to celebrate. And, when we say celebrate, we mean celebrate. Gather your friends and family. Revel in our blessings. Drink and be merry. Very, very merry. A worthy host should offer a topnotch libation. A proper guest should arrive bearing gifts. Whichever you are, let us suggest Blanton’s Bourbon. It ranks as our buddy Ben’s favorite bourbon. And, if you don’t trust him, we promise: Blanton’s was a true hit at our Thanksgiving. Your people—whoever and wherever they are—will love it too. Moreover, they’ll revere you for supplying it.

Small kitchen appliances bring us great joy. Recently, we got a Sous Vide Supreme and find ourselves using it more than anything else but the coffee maker. The Sous Vide Supreme empowers us amateur chefs to cook meat precisely. We’ve made tender salmon and juicy chicken breast. We’ve prepared melt-in-your-mouth scallops. And, we cooked a perfectly medium-rare steak—a feat long endeavored but now accomplished. We’ve literally used it every night this week. Right now, they are offering the holiday-est of deals: the Ultimate Sous Vide Gourmet Gift Package. You get the Water Oven, the Sealer, lots of cooking pouches, a killer cookbook, fancy cutlery, and beef--all natural and pasture-raised beef. For more on the Sous Vide Supreme, click here.

5. Elf Will Ferrell is hilarious. Wearing yellow tights and a pointy hat makes him even funnier.  So, Elf began with an unfair advantage over other Christmas films. And, it delivered on its promise, spinning a heartwarming yearn about an orphan, who was raised by elves, venturing out in search of his human family. We can all relate. 4. Gremlins The 1980’s and 1990's produced some fantastic horror/comedy combinations. We at G@H love the Leprechaun movies, especially Leprechaun 4: In Space.  Where they lack holiday flair, though, Gremlins brings the jolly. Why is Gremlins a Christmas movie?  The gremlins go caroling. They throw a holiday bash at Dorry’s Tavern.  Oh, and, they maul Santa Claus. 3. Muppet Christmas Carol Christmas isn’t complete without a rendition of Charles Dickens' classic. Muppet Christmas Carol ranks as our favorite. We dig the Muppets....
