Look what one of my best girls got me for Christmas! These are mini reusable plates that sit on your finger so you can balance a tasty treat and your beverage at the exact same time. Never again will I have to juggle drinks, food, cocktail napkins, etc. I can't wait to use these at the next party. Seriously, my friend knows me too well!
Know someone who these babies would be perfect for? Get them at Fred Flare. A set of 10 is $12. And if you order today (Tuesday), it will still ship just in the nick of time for Christmas.

Discuss This (4)Last Minute Gift Idea: Wine Glasses

Need a last minute gift? I got this idea after hearing Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher, the wife-and-husband team who writes the Tastings column in the Wall Street Journal, on the radio. They like to give a set of beautiful yet inexpensive wine glasses to their friends and family. Why is this such a versatile idea?

Hungry for a hearty breakfast? My grandma made me a delicious, simple egg casserole when I was visiting her. It's similar to a quiche without the crust so it's more kid-friendly. I thought it would be great to share here—it's perfect to serve to a crowd for weekend brunch or maybe even on Christmas morning.
