This year, entertaining looks a whole lot different than holiday seasons past.

Virtual parties have replaced big bashes and many of us are hosting fewer people (or not at all) for the foreseeable future. At the same time, we're spending more time in our homes than ever before, both on our couches and in our kitchens. So, when making our holiday wishlists this year, we found home and entertaining gifts  — like a chic do-it-all pan and a smart sound system to upgrade our movie-watching experience — to be some of our most coveted items.
