I'm seeking submissions for a roundup of great wellness-oriented items to give your home a refresh as you enter the new year — this may include products that help you have a more restful sleep, streamline your kitchen, get you organized, and more. I'm also looking for products/services to give yourself a refresh in 2026, including meal kits, subscription boxes, wellness items, etc.
Additionally, if you have any fun Mardi Gras-related products or gift ideas (for example, shipping gumbo to someone missing New Orleans flavors), please send them to me.
