Gift Idea for Dessert Lovers: Chocolate Waffleshots

If you’re looking for a way to elevate your mini-dessert creativity, then you might want to take a look at ‘waffle shots’ – chocolate-dipped mini waffle cone cups that you fill with extra tastiness.  The first time I saw these lil’ temptations was on UncommonGoods.com.

There’s Just Something Missing from Celestial Lattes – The Godfather

Celestial Lattes is a line of tea concentrates where you just add milk (or a similar alternative) to create a hot or cold beverage. The Godfather flavor is described as ‘authentic masala chai with bold espresso and rich cocoa,’ which is why I picked it up at the grocery store…

I Finally Got my Own Camera Lens Coffee Mug…

I’ve purchased camera lens coffee mugs on three different occasions, and each time, I coveted these eye-catchingly designed novelty items. My brother is a photographer, and surprisingly, he hasn’t lost or broke his…so I know he really likes it. I bought one for a prize in a blog giveaway, and…
