-Holiday Spirits Only in the Oregon will you find vodka made from—of all things—potatoes. Northwest potatoes and glacier-fed water from Mt. Hood make this a Gold Award winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. With a smooth, slightly sweet taste, Spudka ($15.95–17.95) is a great choice for those looking for a little twist in their martini. Hood River Distillers. www.hoodriverdistillers.com
Geronimo! Inspired by an original Pendleton robe worn by Geronimo in an early 1900s photograph, the enduring design of the Geronimo blanket ($165) has been sprung from Pendleton’s archives and reintroduced. The blanket’s (64” X 80”) rounded corners and unnapped finish are reminiscent of Pendleton blankets made through 1909. Pendleton stores, www.pendleton-usa.com
