A Seasonal Cookbook for Gathered, Gentle Celebrations
A book for the kind of Christmas that feels slow and welcoming. Skye McAlpine’s The Christmas Companion brings together simple, comforting recipes and thoughtful ideas for creating a festive season that feels beautifully lived in.
Inside are gatherings that feel intimate rather than elaborate. Cakes dressed with winter fruit. Pots simmering on the stove. Candlelit tables layered with small, charming details. Skye’s recipes move from quiet mornings in the kitchen to relaxed suppers with family and friends, each chapter tuned to the way the season naturally unfolds.
It is a book that invites you to soften the pace. To cook with intention. To shape traditions that feel real and grounding. Whether you are hosting a full holiday dinner or looking for gentle inspiration for the weeks leading up to Christmas, this companion becomes part of the season itself. One to bring out year after year.

A Note about Shipping
Willow Creek has always been rooted in an in-store experience, and our online shop has grown as an extension of that atmosphere. Many of our pieces are delicate, oversized, or uniquely shaped, so shipping can look a little different from item to item.
Some pieces may show as pickup-only at checkout due to size or fragility. If you have a question about a specific item, you’re welcome to reach out, and we’ll let you know what’s possible.
Thank you for giving us the room to continue shaping what online shopping looks like for our small shop.
Seasonal Shipping Update
With Canada Post experiencing rotating strikes and unpredictable delays, we’ve begun sending online orders through more reliable courier services when needed.
Courier pricing is noticeably higher, so we’ve updated our flat-rate shipping to reflect the current landscape while still absorbing part of the cost on our end.
We’ve also paused free shipping for now. This helps keep things sustainable for our small shop during a season when delivery across Canada is more unpredictable than usual.
Thank you, as always, for your support.
