Speaking of gifts and gift shops, I recently discovered a new line of upscale bath, body and home products from Dallas-based fragrance designer Niven Morgan. Beautifully packaged, the Doors & Destinations candles, from New Orleans (Gardenia and Jasmine) to Marrakech (Orange Blossom) makes a great host or hostess gift. If you’re the host, make your guests comfortable and impress them by stashing a little Niven Morgan shampoo and conditioner in the shower. 888-996-4836, nivenmorgan.com
