    Last-Minute Mother's Day Deliveries To Keep You On Mom's Good ...

    So it's Friday already and you're kinda sorta giftless for Mother's Day -- which is in fact this Sunday, no matter how much you wish you could buy yourself another week to shop. If you're close enough to your mama to see her on the big day, you know there's no way she'll let you into the house empty-handed, unless the mailman has already delivered the gift on your behalf, and a long-distance mom probably won't be any more forgiving if the day passes her by with not so much as a flower in sight. It's okay, you're human, and it's perfectly understandable for such an occasion to slip your mind, in my opinion... but I'm not the one you'll have to beg to for forgiveness! But don't fret yet, my fashionably forgetful friend -- the 'net has loads of thoughtful deliverable gifts that can fix your memory slip just in time (as in, before your mom replaces you as her favorite) as long as you act fast! With an array of edible treats like a set of hand-dipped strawberries that's almost too cute to eat (almost) or an at-home spa kit gift basket that will make sure Mom feels like royalty on her special day, no one will suspect that such a timely, gorgeous gift was really a last-minute desperate effort to stay out of the doghouse! Take a look at the slideshow for some Mother's Day deliveries that will make Mom feel special and save your behind in the process!

    Hot In The Hive: Fran's Smoked Salt Caramels

    What is the "perfect" chocolate-caramel? What are we looking for when it comes to finding and loving the ultimate sweet-tooth treat? Many times, in the middle of a hectic day, i just need a little pick-me-up, a bite of sugary happiness to make me smile again and sustain me for the last bit of a tiring day. My relationship with chocolate is one that a man will never begin to understand or replace. Just like my taste in men, I have standards when it comes to my taste in chocolate and not any kind will do. Any chocolate that is too weak or cheap or that carries to many fillers and "excess baggage" will not garner a second chance. When it comes to both, I can't stand anything too sweet. I like a little edge and personality. I have yet to find the perfect man, but I may have found the perfect chocolate treat! Fran's Chocolates best-seller is the grey or smoked salt caramel. It is buttery, soft caramel coated in a creamy coat of fine milk or dark chocolate and topped with just a sprinkle of grey or smoked salt. The salt does not overpower, but instead, subtly brings out the individual flavors of the chocolate and caramel. Originating from Seattle, Washington, Fran now has stores in both Bellevue and Seattle. Not in the area? No worries! Begin the best long-distance relationship you'll ever have and have these salty-sweet chocolate-covered caramels delivered right to your front-step!


    Price: $24.00 for a box of 20
    Who Found It: idabone was first to add Fran's Smoked Sea Salt Caramels to the Hive.
