I love this stuff! Comes in great colors and isn't goopy. It actually feels good on my lips. Helps make me look more together than I ever really am. (via Sephora)

Street Sweets NY
First to recommend
Description
One fine sunny Monday morning I was on my way to the office and hungry as ever. I happen upon the Street Sweets truck and ordered the ham + cheese croissant and it was absolutely scrumptious! I was so impressed by the croissant I went back for another treat later. My afternoon splurge was on the Coconut Macaroons Macarellas (it's like a macaroon sandwich with nutella in the middle). Soooo good.
They have a rewards card so everytime you buy from the truck you work towards a free item at the end of the road. The truck is not limited to just sweets, they also serve quiches and soups and most recently carry Jacque Torres chocolate. Yummy!
The Street Sweets truck travels all around Manhattan parking at various locations throughout the week. The best way to find them is by using that fancy service they call twitter. (via Street Sweets)

CupcakeStop: NYC's Mobile Cupcake Shoppe
2 people recommended this item
Description
If you're visiting NYC as a Sex in The City fan and plan to go visit Magnolia Bakery I BEG you to please find your way to the Cupcake Stop Truck instead. Magnolia is so yesterday and they don't even sell a good cupcake.
Cupcake Stop is the first mobile cupcake truck in NYC. They locate themselves in key areas of NY all throughout the week so there's absolutely no excuse for not finding them. While all the cupcakes are DEEEEELICIOUS! I am partial to the vanilla cupcakes they make especially the vanilla cupcake with vanilla frosting. Heaven I tell you.
They are now also serving coffee. Score! (via Cupcake Stop)

Little Jackie - The Stoop
First to recommend
Description
Remember Imani Coppola? You know "Legend of a Cowgirl". She's now part of a duo called Little Jackie and still cranking out some awesomely fun music. If you're into Garbage or Lily Allen you should definitely check them out. What I love best about Imani being part of this group are the amazing lyrics she belts out. One of my favorite lines from "The World Should Revolve Around Me" is "There's only one me in the galaxy. I am endangered species" (via Little Jackie on MySpace)

OXO - LiquiSeal Travel Mug
First to recommend
Description
I kid you not when I say this is one of the best travel mugs ever! This actually doesn't drip when you drink from it. I have other travel mugs and my coffee seems to drip whenever I take a sip. Yes, the top is on secure but yet coffee mysteriously makes it's way out. I have the barista at Starbucks or the Van Leeuwen truck fill this up when I get coffee. Good for the coffee and good for the enviroment! (via OXO)

Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream
First to recommend
Description
I wash my hands. A LOT! I've tried out all sorts of lotions and so far this one's a winner! It truly does what it claims - fast absorbing, light, non-greasy, daily moisture. There is a light scent which always brightens my day when I smell it. (via drugstore.com)

Bose On-Ear Headphones
5 people recommended this item
Description
I chose these headphones over the noise cancelling ones so that I could still hear the cars and horns when I walk down the street. They are super comfortable, come with a case and the ability to replace your cord should you ruin them (like I seem to). Definitely pricey but quality comes with a price. No shoppers remorse here!

Eye-Fi Explore X2 8GB Wireless SDHC Memory Card

2 people recommended this item
Description
Often I am everywhere yet nowhere. The Eye-Fi Explores not only captures my digital moments but it also (ample cell towers permitting) captures my location so when I go home I can check out on Google maps where exactly I was. Especially helpful when I'm roaming the unknown.

Built Cargo Laptop Sleeve
5 people recommended this item
Description
While I love pockets in general I feel this design is most successful and practical when a user doesn't put such bulbous objects in them. The big objects don't allow room for the other objects you may have to throw in there along with the cargoed laptop. However I do like that the pockets remind me to put my stuff away.

I helped make my banner photo by being one of the chorus members holding up cut pieces of cardboard to make that face. It's one of my proud moments.

The big gifts are easy but stocking stuffers can be so much more fun to buy for!
