They have everything from distinctive greeting cards, social announcements and invitations, boxed notes, and gift wrap. They have also gotten recent shout-outs in Lucky Magazine, as well as Blueprint. Some favorites are by a brand called Sidepony that feature such taglines as "Everyone Likes a Den Mother" and "Wanna Couple Skate?". Check out the luscious line of cupcake cards available!

A Little Slice of Heaven!

Since cupcakes are my namesake, I have to recommend the best. Sprinkles Cupcakes are just this. These cupcakes come in more extensive flavors than the usual cupakes: red velvet, peanut butter chocolate, banana, carrot, chocolate coconut...yummy! If you are lucky enough to live near a Sprinkles location (Los Angeles, Orange County, Dallas, Phoenix) then stop by and have one of the most delicious things you will ever taste. These cupcakes are huge and can be shared. They have also caught on and won a following so they are opening locations in Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Kansas City, London, Las Vegas, Miami, Minneapolis, New York, Seattle, SF/Bay Area, Tokyo and D.C. They have taken something simple and fine-tuned it, like say, another huge company: Starbuck's. You can even go to http://www.sprinklescupcakes.com/ and order mix to make your very own cupcakes at home. They come in a cute little cylinder gift box for $14, which makes a great holiday gift/hostess gift also.

The Gorillapod Tripod

Ever feel bad leaving someone out of a picture because someone has to take the darn thing? This will solve that problem. This is a small tripod that is flexible, so you can attach it to a tree branch, a chair, a pole, a railing…ok enough, you get the picture! And yes, you will get the picture. This is such a great gadget and it comes in a few different colors (for those of you who like to express yourself). Perfect for the camera aficionado or the gadget guru. It is about $25. Mom & Dad, this is on my Christmas list! Don’t let me down!
