Although I’m not a huge tea fan myself, I think Adagio Teas is just the cat’s pajamas.  Whenever I find myself in need of a gift for a friend who drinks tea at all, they’re the first company to spring to mind.  No matter how cheap your package, everything comes to you looking sophisticated and stylish.  It’s definitely not granny tea.

This Tea Flavors Sampler is perfect for casual gifts where you don’t want to look cheap and yet you don’t want to spend a lot.  For a mere $11, you get 6 flavors of tea.  Your lucky recipient will get 1 ounce each of apricot, blueberry, chocolate, cinnamon, passion fruit & tangerine in this Tea Flavors Sampler.

The Teaposy Gift Set may be a little weird, but I feel like I’ve finally found the perfect gift for those random but important women that I can never seem to buy for. At around $75, it’s a little pricey for some (definitely too much for the aunt who’s always bugging me about getting married), but it’s perfect for the ones I actually like.

The basic concept is this - you put the Teaposy into hot water and the flower expands and sinks to the bottom. The basic Teaposy gift set comes with 2 cups, 2 saucers, a teakettle, and 6 packets of Teaposy tea. Everything’s clear, too, which is awesome because it lets you fully appreciate the blooming process.

Now that I think about it, the Teaposy might not be a bad item to have around for a boring night laying around the house. There’s no harm in indulging yourself once in a while.

This mug is making me giggle this morning. The idea is that you have a simple mug showing Adam and Eve, covered by fig leaves so you don’t see the naughty bits. When you add hot coffee, though, the fig leaves fade away to reveal their anatomical correctness.

I suppose I shouldn’t be shocked, since Adam and Eve are said to be the original troublemakers…but I suspect that this mug could get a girl (or guy) in some trouble in a politically correct workplace. If you work with anyone like Angela on The Office, I don’t recommend bringing one of these to work.
