“Shiraz on the Shelf” Is Here to Help Parents Survive the Holidays

If you’re already stressed out trying to find creative new ways to set up that Elf, then you’ll be happy to learn there’s a new way to celebrate the season that’s just for grown-ups, thanks to Shiraz on the Shelf.

Dena Blizzard, the comedian mom behind the blog One Funny Mother, has come up with the perfect solution to the stress moms everywhere face in making the holidays magical. From baking cookies and wrapping presents to class parties, and yes—even that Pinterest-worthy Elf pose—moms have a lot on their plates over the holidays. Blizzard thinks you deserve a break. A wine break.

The Shiraz on the Shelf kit comes packed with a custom wine glass and a book. Sadly, no wine is actually included, but at least you’ll have the perfect excuse to pop open a bottle while you read the hilarious story of why moms desperately need a glass of wine (or two) during the holiday season.

Despite being illustrated and told in the rhyme scheme of The Night Before Christmas, this book is no kids bedtime story. Like its comedic predecessor, Go The F*ck to Sleep, you’ll definitely want to save this tale for after the kids are in tucked in with visions of Nintendo Switches in their heads.

The Shiraz on the Shelf kit sells for $29.99 and is available at the One Funny Mother online store.
