A few of my favorite things…
While certainly never expected, tokens of affection are absolutely one of my love languages and are always deeply appreciated. If you’re thinking of me, wanting to build a little anticipation before we meet, or simply want to spoil a girl , a thoughtful gift is a guaranteed cheat code to making a good impression and making me blush.
For future boyfriends who prefer not to show up to a date empty-handed and are curious about my preferences…

Some non-alcoholic favorites: cappuccinos (with whole milk), good quality coconut water, matcha, cold pressed juice.
I’m partial to light or medium bodied red wines & mineral white white wines, dry sake, and of course it’s rare that I’ll say no to bubbles. If we’re going out (or staying in!) for cocktails, I love a good negroni or the absolute filthiest martini available, as well as mezcal.

Artisan chocolates, macarons, fresh fruit, anything pistachio or matcha flavored.

Peonies, roses, and of course houseplants. The closer something looks to a bouquet one would pick in a field of wildflowers, the more I love it - locally, Subtle Fields makes gorgeous arrangements.
