Slow Down Soundtrack + A Tasty Cocktail - Ordinary Habit

We wanted to take a moment to send greetings from our family to yours this holiday season. We’re so thankful to you for your support, and all of your kind words of encouragement. They mean the world to us. Whether you find yourself with loved ones this holiday season, or finding peace and quiet alone, we hope our puzzles and games have brought you joy, kept you company, and provided wonderful times with others.

Music is a huge part of our household, and this time of year the record spinning never ceases. At 5pm, we try to wind down work as the music comes on. We have a ritual of all spending time together talking about our days over our favorite cocktails – see below for one of our faves. The holidays are all about tradition, and this is one of our favorites. We wanted to share a little Slow Down playlist we made, to help us find some moments of calm during this time of year.

Wishing you all the best,

Echo + Tre
