For Your Co-Worker | Chocolate-Covered Drunken Figs

It’s always hard to find something that everyone in the office will appreciate, but you really can’t go wrong with this gourmet combo of organic figs, organic dark chocolate and vintage port all in one bite.  Mmm…Scrumptious!

For the Aunt & Uncle | Udon Noodle Bowl

I think this makes the perfect gift because it’s an item someone might not purchase but would love to receive. Not only is it ergonomic — it’s designed to be held with only one hand and can hold a pair of chopsticks — but its sleek design makes for great conversation.

$30 at Flavour Design.

Limited Time Offer for the nano-lover | Nano Wallet

Brought to our attention by a reader named Marcus with a particularly sharp eye…

If you’re looking for THE iPod nano wallet, look no further.  Charles and Marie still have this adorable item in stock, unlike all of the other retailers who are currently on backorder. 

The wallet, measuring 3.5" by 2.5", is constructed out of full grain leather (the good stuff) and holds your Nano along with the essentials—credit cards and cash. 

But buy it NOW because it’s only going to be available until about 4pm PST today!

$25 at Charles and Marie.

For the College Roommate | Egg Rug

I’ll admit it: I’m planning on getting this for myself. That’s how cool it is. The egg is this great irregular shape, and the yolk is raised a few inches higher than the rest of the rug. Could one think of a better way to cover up spilled drinks from last night’s party?

$24 at Triple B Studio.
