#LetsHoliday with Whole Foods and Casa Madrona


The Holiday Season is in fully swing, and I don’t know about you – but I’m having a challenging time keeping up! I still feel like Thanksgiving was last Thursday, and that I have all the time in the world before Christmas arrives. But is here, my loves. It’s here! And it’s time to buckle up and get down to business.

Earlier this month I attended the Whole Foods #LetsHoliday event at the beautiful Casa Madrona in Sausalito. The setting was perfect: spectacular views, great company, free-flowing wine and cocktails, and of course: Whole Body products that I love and adore, and fantastic food. The event was set up to encourage and inspire dinner hosting ideas, and finding that extra-special gift for loved ones and friends.

The dining tables were decked out in festive holiday décor, provided by Chairs and Cups – a dinner partyware rental company based in San Francisco. The company isn’t just for large gatherings; rentals can be done a la carte, ranging from glassware, flatware, lighting, and more (plus there’s no need to wash the dishes after!). Our meal was curated by Chef Trent and the Whole Foods Prepared Foods Team. So you know the food was fresh, made with real ingredients, and absolutely delicious!

Still (and perhaps now, frantically) searching for the perfect gift for someone? Stop by your local Whole Foods! From home beer making kits to high-quality, high-performing skincare from their Whole Body section, to great gifts for coffee aficionados, and local events to participate in, you’ll be sure to find the gift you’ve been looking for.

If, like me, you’ve been thinking about gifting an experience this holiday as opposed to material objects, Casa Madrona is the perfect spot for a stay-cation, Bay Area style. With sweeping views of Angel Island and the Golden Gate bay, it’s also a short drive away from my home, Sonoma Wine Country (and Napa too)! Casa Madrona consists of rooms, suites, and mansion suites; making it the perfect luxury getaway.
