There’s a war on Christmas? Not here at DCist! Our grubby little consumerism-obsessed fingers can’t get enough of the materialist giving and receiving that the season’s come to represent. That said, it can be especially difficult to think of any sort of gifts that are semi-original and meaningful, so DCist has taken on the task for you, compiling a list of presents with a D.C. bent. From a hot local chef’s new cookbook to district t-shirts galore, we’ve got you covered. And what does DCist want under the tree? Besides Butterstick in a big red bow or a Men of DCist calendar, just your thoughts in the comments on other worthwhile local gifts.
