Sly San Francisco wit is the rare device that makes this well-curated selection of gifts for all ages so irresistible. Block kits help kids build their own Victorians; rainbow-handled mugs help friends feel Pride every day; lipstick in a berry-stained hue, dubbed Divisadero, is dinner-date-worthy; and 826 Valencia's Adventure Calendar finds time for play in start-up schedules.
