This is the age of the cupcake! Gourmet cupcakes are everywhere. And for good reason. Nothing’s more satisfying and mood enhancing than that simple little self contained bundle of perfection that is the cupcake. At once retro and modern. These days nothing beats the cupcake when it comes to a festive treat. The only downside: It can be a real pain to provide cupcake bliss for a loved one. There are cupcake bakeries sprouting up all over the place and well established cupcake specialists in big cities like New York and Chicago often have block-long lines. Unless you are planning on buying a huge quantity of cupcakes, most places won’t take a special order - so by the time you get to the head of the line your cupcake of choice might be gone for the day. I hate when that happens! I wanted red velvet with cream cheese frosting for a birthday dinner not too long ago and by the time I stopped at the cupcake shop at only about 2 in the afternoon they were sold out! I hate when that happens. I won’t have to worry about that happening again. Next time I absolutely need cupcakes I’m going to have them brought directly to me with Everything Cupcake
, the newest product line from 1-800-FLOWERS.COM
.


And in honor of their new venture, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM
has come up with a totally fun and lower calorie twist on the traditional cupcake.


How cute is that!
And, of course, not only do we know exactly where to get everything - we’ve always got the inside scoop on how to get it for less!

One of the things that drives me crazy is having to pay for shipping when I’m sending a very small gift. I’m not talking about something small in size - I’m talking about something inexpensive. Particularly something inexpensive, rather bulky and perishable. It’s not that I’m cheap (I’m just savvy) - it’s more about the absurdity of spending $12 on shipping to send someone a $25 box of chocolates as a small thank you or birthday gift. It’s just irritating. And I know I’m not alone in this. It’s very irritating.

Problem solved. Fannie May is now offering Free Shipping when you spend $20 per address with code 10107 thru 6.28.08. Like I said. Problem solved.
PS There’s no rule that the chocolates MUST be a gift. You might just want to treat yourself!

Birthstone jewelry is more popular than ever these days and always an excellent choice for the sweet sixteen. If you haven’t looked at birthstone jewerly in a while, now’s the time to check it out. The selection of styles and price ranges is absolutely phenomenal. At one end of the price spectrum, a pair of birthstone stud earrings set in sterling silver can generally be found for under $30 - and from there the sky’s the limit. Stud earrings set in 14k gold cost a bit more, but depending on the size (and the stone, of course) are often available for well under $100.
For the best selection of birthstone jewerly available on the internet and the best possible prices, take a surf over to Finejewelers.com
- Prices are discounted up to 70% off of retail; sometimes more. Shipping is free. They charge no sales tax. And you can ALWAYS save an extra 10% on birthstone jewerly with the coupon above.

A gourmet cookie bouquet is a fun and tasty gifting alternative to flowers or candy. Works for many occasions. Perfect for Mother’s Day. It’s also a cute and multi purpose hostess gift - a centerpiece and dessert all in one! I also like the cookie bouquet for an office birthday and as a housewarming gift. Also a perfect option for those always hungry dorm dwelling college students. Beck and I send cookie arrangements frequently (secretly wishing someone would do the same for us, no doubt) and we’ve received nothing but positive feedback.

Who doesn’t love a good cookie? Most of us don’t even keep them around because we know that we simply can’t control ourselves. Cookies are a great gift and make a fun and tasty alternative to the traditional birthday cake, particularly an office mate or for a dorm dweller.

David’s is one of my favorite cookie bakery boutiques. The cookies are delicious, beautifully presented and packed. Shipping is free. Certified Kosher.

Planning a party? Looking for something just a little bit different? How about a pinata. It’s a great for a child’s birthday party - each guest can fill his or her own goodie bag from the spoils.
Pinatas can add a festive flair to lots of other types of gatherings as well. This is just the kind of thing that I would want to do and then I’d run all over town making myself crazy trying to find just the right one. No more - check out the pinatas at this top web merchant. They’ve got a selection you can’t shake a stick at! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!)
