One of the many joyous traditions practiced in this Holiday Season is the exchanging of gifts. Gifts, ultimately, are just things – maybe toys, maybe socks, maybe a Red Ryder Range 200 Shot BB Gun. What makes a gift magical is that it comes wrapped. You are handed a mysterious, shrouded box or bag of clandestine wonder and your only task is to annihilate this thin obfuscation and claim your prize. But what is the obligation of the gift-wrapper? Amazon would claim fulfilment after dropping the item into a shiny bag. Though, a true artisan of gift endowment would not be satisfied short of pristine paper, crisply folded and decorated to Emily Post perfection. But to seal it, there is no alternative to the hideous plastic bandage of Scotch Tape. Join Mat, Veronique, and Guest – Beth Conley – as we adhere ourselves to the highest standards and stick that first bit of tape directly to the Gift Wrapping.
