Postcups: Love It or Hate It?
Kitschy mugs have never been my thing. However, when I saw these porcelain Postcups ($50) by Bailey Doesn't Bark, I thought they would make a fun Valentine's Day gift. The microwave-safe, handle-less mugs can even be engraved with a personal message.
YumSugar Gift Guide: The Hipster Foodie
A friend of mine, who fits the classification of hipster to a T, also happens to love all things gourmet. Initially, I was at a loss for what to get her, but I quickly discovered that there's an array of niche gift items that converge at the juncture of food, music, and cutting-edge cool. Case in point: I have to get her this book about underground dining, and because she loves to push the envelope, I know she'll flip for this shopping bag.
Funny Cup: Love It or Hate It?
The other day I came across this random cup that made me do a double take. At first glance, I thought it was full of egg yolk, but then I noticed the squatting female and started to laugh.

Mom's Heart Will Flutter With These Butterflies

YumSugar Gift Guide: Remember Your Co-Workers
Finding the perfect gift for a co-worker can sometimes be a tricky task. You hang out with them for more hours than you do your own family, but for the most part it's still an office relationship. Selecting a gift for the ones you know well will be easy, but the ones you're not as familiar with might be a bit more difficult.
Casa Verde: Greener Disposable Cups
While reusable containers are always best, sometimes, when you're throwing a big party, it's hard to get around the use of disposable cups. But now there's a better option.
This past weekend I attended a wedding for a bride and groom who are really eco-sensitive, so I was surprised to see plastic cups on the bar.
Hoch Die Tassen: Love It Or Hate It?
