Highlights

Theater tickets. Nothing beats a good show! 

Scott Wright, MD, CLOSLER Executive Editor
Lamar Jackson’s favorite shirt for @Ravens pressers: “Nobody Cares, Work Harder!”

Margaret Chisolm, MD, Johns Hopkins Medicine
Soon I’ll be gifting dozens of cookies I’ve made from my mother’s, grandmother’s, and great-grandmother’s Christmas recipes.

Carl Streed Jr, MD, MPH, Boston Medical Center
Last year a close friend from childhood lost her childhood lovey (a stuffed bear) on vacation. I bought a replacement on eBay, removed some stuffing to make it squishier, and patched it in the same places. It’s as close as possible without the 40 years of being loved.

Jessica Colburn, MD, Johns Hopkins Medicine
A Nutribullet for my grandma recovering from surgery.

Zainab Obaidi, MBBS, Hopkins Medicine
A set of custom spoons.
