First up, forget jewelry or perfume, give the woman in your life what she truly wants, a hot guy with a really cute baby animal -- with the aptly named Hot Guys and Baby Animals 2011 calendar.As the website says:
Are you sick and tired of seeing studly dudes showing off their perfectly sculpted muscles? Have you had enough of those adorable baby animals flaunting their newborn, fuzzy cuteness? Yeah, we didn't think so.
And speaking of fuzzy cuteness, why not get her these plush fleece sushi slippers from Uncommon Goods to kick back in?As the description says: "This delectable set of salmon (orange) and tuna (red) rolls are sure to satisfy your cravings for rest and relaxation. Handmade from plush fleece with extra-cushy batting and no-slip, water resistant soles. Truly comfort food for the sole."
And for him, how about a nice warm (slightly naughty) sweater, like this Excited Snowman from Skedouche? (Sadly, I just discovered that the Excited Snowman sweater is out of stock, but make sure to bookmark the site so you can be sure to order your naughty or tacky Christmas sweater next season!)You can also put some magic back in his life with this Magic Wand Programmable TV Remote from ThinkGeek.
As the retail wizards at ThinkGeek explain:Our Wand may not make legions of kobold minions explode into flames, but it will learn up to 13 commands from your existing remote controls and map them to particular magical motions. Flick the wand from side to side to flip the channels, twist the wand to turn up the volume. A beam of light will shoot out the unicorn tail hair and magic will happen! The Wand can learn from any remotes in your house and once you master its 13 movements, you can mastermind a symphony of electronic enjoyment from the comfort of your couch. Then, and only then, are you an epic level controller.And for the pessimist in your life, how about this "This glass is now half empty mug" from Despair.com (which is one of my all-time favorite sites and has the most brilliant FAQ page EVER)?
Last but not least, give your little ones a gift they'll never forget this Christmas, like staph or herpes (pictured at left)!After all, nothing says "I love you" like a virus! (Achoo!) Especially when it's blown up to thousands of times is natural size and is cute and cuddly and plush!
(A tip of my Santa hat to Friend of the Blog David T. for introducing me to GIANTmicrobes.)
I could go on (and on). But I won't.
Happy Christmas shopping!

Great gift I'm trying for hard to buy for people, and men - The Microlite, it is a tiny LEd light that will illuminate your remote control, gaming platform, fuse box, keyholes, anywhere you need light. Its high tech ipod looking, yet simple. Pretty cool unique gift. Try it! buy on the company's website www.microlitetech.com.
I think I should inspect the calendar in a little more depth. I ordered some from Vistaprint with family photos for the grandparents. But somehow I think they'd prefer one of these to a picture of me hugging a chicken in June.
@Ange, I think we need to collaborate on a Women of a Certain Age with Farm Animals calendar.
