The holidays are a special time of year, when friends and family gather to celebrate the spirit of the season. We drink eggnog beside a roaring fire, and stay in our pajamas until noon. We take a vacation from daily life to break bread around a shared table and celebrate the simple joy of getting together.
Though we may fill our calendars, we enjoy life at a slower pace. Between ballet recitals and conference calls, we carve out space for quality time with those we cherish most. It renews us and brings us back to ourselves. It’s as fundamental to us as the salty sea air and the rugged coastline.
The greatest gift we can receive is that of time spent together, and we’ll go to great lengths to make sure it’s special. We happily brave airports at the busiest time of year, and spend hours in the kitchen roasting and simmering. We toil over vegetarian options for our daughter’s new boyfriend and wake up before dawn to put the turkey in the oven.
From Glace Bay to Halifax, from Lunenberg to Sydney, Nova Scotians look forward to the holidays all year. We deck the halls and take our time coming up with the perfect gift to surprise that special loved one on our list.
The Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation wants to help you make the season bright. Though they can’t trim your tree, they’ll help you find the perfect wine, beer or spirit to pair with that delicious homemade cranberry sauce. They’ll help you bring your festive feast to life!
This year, ensure you receive a spot on your host’s ‘Nice’ list when you show up with a bottle of fine whiskey to slide under their tree or let them choose their own perfect gift to share with the one they care about with an NSLC gift card. It’s the perfect gift that is made for sharing.
Why do they do it? For the same reason you do – because the holidays are special, especially to Nova Scotians. They’re happy to share in making your holidays memorable this season, simply for the love of getting together.
