Crumbs Bake Shop in a Box
First to recommend
Description
From the cover, you may get the impression that this is simply a cute bake-your-own-cupcakes set for kids. Well, it is. Cute, that is. But you have to open it to see just HOW cute. Oh. My. God. I've seen a lot of these all-in-one sets and this? By far one of the best ever.
First of all, the author's credentials set it apart. Mia Bauer is the lady behind the incredibly successful chain of Crumbs bakeshops- those of you lucky enough to live in L.A., New York or Jersey may be familiar with her delicious creations.... like the FlutterNutter Cupcake- vanilla spongecake with marshmallow buttercream filling, frosted with vanilla buttercream that's mixed with real peanut butter and THEN drizzled with white chocolate and edged with white sprinkles Um... yeah. YUM.
So I was so excited to find this kit for kids in a local bookstore. Mia has created an adorable character named Lolly LaCrumb and written a book detailing her many wild adventures. Even better, the book comes complete with wipeable recipe cards that provide easy-to-follow instructions, stencils for decorating (hold the character-inspired designs over your cupcake and sprinkle your topping of choice), kid-friendly measuring tools... oh and so much more. I just can't say enough about it so I'll stop before I try to.
Perfect birthday or holiday gift for the little girl in your life- or for yourself. Really, the cover doesn't do it justice. SO much cuter in person!

The Cheesecake Factory Online Store
First to recommend
Description
I started ordering these about ten years ago and still give myself little air kisses for thinking of it. First of all, they get where they're going FAST. So if you have an "Oops! I forgot a birthday!" moment, trust me. One visit to the online store here will get you creamy, delicious forgiveness delivered right to a doorstep overnight.
Secondly, if you're looking for a Christmas or hostess gift for the person who 'has it all,' well who ever has enough cheesecake? No one.
Finally, if you yourself are the hostess why add even more to the chaos by taking your hand out of the turkey's ass so that you can race around baking when you can order some fabulously delicious (think Carmel Apple Streusal, Cookie Dough and the most incredible of all, White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle!) cheescake a week ahead of time, pop it into the freezer and simply thaw it a few hours ahead of your guests' arrival? Just do it. You'll be hooked.

Cupcake33 Original Oil Painting
First to recommend
Description
This is one of those paintings I wouldn't mind getting lost in for awhile... The 16x20 inch original (artist: Roz) oil painting would make a fabulously colorful addition to a nursery, kitchen, child's room or any nook in need of some sugar.

Fat Bastard Wines
3 people recommended this item
Description
I bought my first bottle of Fat Bastard wine (a delicious Cabernet) a few years ago merely for the label. I kept buying it for the taste. A really and truly great wine. Even better? They took part in Breast Cancer Awareness month this past October.
from the site:
As 2008 rolls into the autumn months of September and October, it is time again to show our support for Breast Cancer Awareness. Breast cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in women in the United States, and for the sixth year in a row- FAT bastard aims to raise awareness and spread hope, by donating 25 cents for every bottle sold up to $75,000. This donation will be used to support breast cancer research, education and screening throughout the country- helping several cancer care organizations that offer a new hope to women and their families. During the donation period, FAT bastard wines will be easy to spot on the shelf wearing the special “Live Large, Spread Hope” necker with an attached enamel pink ribbon pin to wear in show of your support.
This is a cause very close to my heart, so I encourage FAT bastard wine drinkers to support our awareness program and raise their glasses to help spread hope and work towards eradicating breast cancer forever!

Celebrity Cellars Rolling Stones Glitter Tongue Wine Set
First to recommend
Description
It's not cheap but it's pretty damn cool.
from the site:
The Rolling Stones Glitter Tongue is one of the single coolest etched wines we've ever produced. And the complete collector set? Beyond cool. It's a little hard to capture the full glitter effect in a web photo --- but in person the shimmering, sparklescent color is incredible. Each bottle is etched and painted entirely by hand, takes about a month to produce, and is individually numbered. This particular set includes a MATCHED, NUMBERED series -- all bottles are the SAME number!
Set includes six beautifully etched wines, each in a different color. The set also includes a specially branded wooden collector box, and an official Certificate of Authenticity!
The wines are as follows:
Red Tongue: 2004 Miramonte Old Vine Zinfandel
Blue Tongue: 2004 Miramonte Syrah
Gold Tongue: 2004 Miramonte Estate Syrah
Green Tongue: 2005 Miramonte Cabernet/Merlot
Orange Tongue: 2004 Miramonte Cabernet Sauvignon
Yellow Tongue: 2005 Miramonte Cabernet/Shiraz
