I love this particular Keurig single serve brewing system since you have a choice of 3 different cup sizes.

If you haven't made coffee (or tea or hot cocoa) in a Keurig coffee maker then you are definitely missing out on a spectacular cup of coffee. Keurig is similar to other single serve coffee brewers but unlike others, you can brew larger and taller cups of coffee.

K-Cups are individually sealed so each cup of coffee is super fresh. K-cups (often called pods in other brewers) are available from many coffee manufacturers such as Coffee People, Tullys, Caribou, Newmans Own, Emeril and many others.

Don't forget to check out the Obama blend from Peoples Coffee (McCain blend is also available)
Delicious with a capitol D! (via Keurig Gourmet)

FurReal Friends 'Biscuit'

First to recommend

Description

As soon as I saw Biscuit My Lovin Pup I wanted to hug him. I'm a huge dog lover and watching him act like a real dog made my heart melt. I know that he's just a toy, so he's so soft and cuddly.
Then when you watch him bark back to you, sit up and beg, shake hands and chomp his bone you almost forget that he's not real (watch the video on the site and you'll understand).
I bet that Biscuit, My Lovin Pup will be one of the hottest toys for 2008 and beyond.

How To Get a Letter or Package From Santa

First to recommend

Description

What I liked about this page is that you can receive 2 freebies without having to purchase anything.
The first one is a Christmas countdown calendar and then there is also a free Official Santa's Nice list guide. Both get emailed to you.

However the Santa letters and other Santa and Rudolph item that you can order by clicking through the links are the nicest I have seen.

Every year I have a letter or package from Santa sent to my son (he is 22 now) as part of our Christmas tradition and none in the previous years have looked as nice as these or had the wide range of items. I was highly impressed.

My son said that he will pass on the tradition when he has children as he has enjoyed it very much over the years. Even during the years that we hardly had enough money to scrape together a decent Christmas tree or a nice Christmas dinner with all the fixings, my son always got his Santa letter.

His gifts still get labeled from Santa, Mrs Claus, Rudolph or the other reindeers. I know he thinks it's a bit corny but sometimes traditions are corny, yet we still love and look forward to them.

Miniature Christmas Villages

First to recommend

Description

I love setting up Christmas Villages on our fireplace mantle and under the Christmas tree.
My husband never shared my enthusiasm until I was able to find more "manly" type sets. This year I found three to add to his collection: a John Deere village, a NY Jets village and also a NASCAR village.
I know that both my husband and my son will be a bit more excited about Christmas "thingys" ( that's what they call them) and maybe they will even help decorate the tree -no, I think that's asking a bit too much.

The Wonderful World of Disney Christmas Table Top Tree

First to recommend

Description

If your a Christmas or Disney fan (and who isn't?), this The Wonderful World of Disney Christmas Tree is perfect for you.

Not only does it have all your favorite Disney characters but it lights up, there are four different levels that rotate and plays a medley of Christmas Carols.

This 16" table top tree is a delight to look at, watch it rotate (especially Mickey on his train) and a joy to listen to.

This is a must have for Christmas or Disney collectors and is a very special gift for someone who may live alone is in a nursing home or is having an extended stay in a hospital or medical facility..
