The Creme de la Creme

Oh. My. God. This nearly brings tears to my eyes. Of course, I a) have had a very frustrating day and b) am hormonal. I now want to make one of these and live off it for the remainder of the year. I won't eat anything else, just nibble on my giant egg. You are my hero, Macro Snax. Way to combat the sad trend of decreasing Cadbury Creme Egg size.

For Your Easter Basket

Since it's nearly Easter, I figured some of you might want some last-minute suggestions if you need to get someone a present or otherwise want to celebrate the Great Bunny Day. (Jesus who?)

If you're one of those Peeps people (Peeple?) take your love of the marshmallow creatures to a whole new level with Peeps: A Candy-Coated Tale. Which you can read while snuggling against these pillows.

For some reason Easter seems to bring out the cutesy crazies in us all. I've never been one of those people who enjoys dressing up my iPod, but wouldn't it look awfully cute in a bunny suit? Along similarly illogical lines, why not deck the tea kettle and your eggs as well?

Oh yeah—and buy me one (or more) of these awesome little flop-eared chocolate bunnies. Awww...mmmmm.... Can't...fight...conflicting emotions...both good.

Chocobribery

Yes, chocobribery. It's a word I coined yesterday (in an apparent fit of brilliance).

chocobribery n — The tactic of using chocolate as a motivator, especially when dealing with women. Also effective on but potentially fatal to dogs.

Good Clean Fun

Just had to post these chocolate soaps, as they look absolutely scrumptious. And I'm in total chocolate withdrawal.
Oh, and, while you're soaping up, why not toss some spa lights in the tub? Get a nice, relaxing ambiance going? Invite someone to join you? Hm?

Fat- and Calorie-Free Chocolate

No, I'm not advocating you chew on some chocolate-scented scratch 'n sniff stickers (which are probably the only chocolates out there that lack calories and fat). This is chocolate for your body. You could pick up an organic cocoa butter massage bar (if you're stingy) or spring for the zero-calorie chocolate body care gift basket (if you're slightly more flush).

Should you happen to be one of those freaks who doesn't like chocolate (what is wrong with such people?) but still want to get in on the sensual massage action, you could opt for one of these passion candles, which provide aromatherapy and can be used as massage oil (wax?) when melted.

Though this should be perfectly obvious, a massage must accompany any of these products. If you're not going to make good with the massage, don't give these gifts, which will surely be seen as a cruel tease.

For Your Pie-Hole

Okay, as it's the day before Thanksgiving, I'm starting to feel a bit festive. I think I shall begin the annual holiday gift guide in earnest on Monday. But here's one little suggestion in advance:

For anyone with a pronounced sweet tooth and an undying love of both pie and chocolate, the Godiva American Pies Collection is definitely the way to go. It's not cheap, but what is?

Happy Toikey Day (in advance).

Because Diamonds are Passé

Tell her she lights up your life (without saying anything nearly that sappy) with the Crystal Fuze Necklace.

How about some Champagne without the drunkenness? This necklace is just as bubbly.

If you can spare some big bucks, go for the awesome Swarovski Nepal Ring. (Incidentally, I think it can double as a weapon.) If that's out of your price range, try the glass Bling Ring.

For the geekettes (or those who love geeks), go for the surprisingly elegant Capacitor Necklace.

For another decidedly unusual choice, check out this Ruler Bracelet.

This is a personal favorite. Show her that she's yours and you're not letting go with a Handcuff Bracelet. (On the topic of handcuffs, keep this rule in mind: Handcuff bracelet=cute. Fuzzy handcuffs=overplayed.)

To spell it out, try one of these Definition Necklaces.

And, if you'd like to go a more traditional route (as in candy) without actually giving candy, the Chocolate Bon-Bon Necklace is an excellent and adorable option.
