Here are a few more of my favorite things in case you're looking for last minute Christmas gifts.

• Netflix -- How is it that I just discovered this wonderful service?  I kept getting mail from them with a one month free trial, so I finally decided to try it when I realized I could also get movies and TV shows through my Wii.  I couldn't believe how easy it was to download what I'd need through my Wii, and now I'm catching up on Dexter and Fringe and other shows I've missed out on from the beginning.  It's $7.99 a month if you just use the download service, and $9.99 a month if you use both that service AND get DVDs through the mail.  What's very cool is that you can give this service as a gift, and it doesn't have to be for a whole year either -- you can give it for 1, 2, 3, 6, or 12 months at around $10 a month!  Get your free month trial now too -- www.netflix.com.
• Harbor Sweets -- Salem, Massachusetts is the home of Harbor Sweets and the incredible Sweet Sloops chocolates!  You're just going to have to trust me on this one if you've never had this candy before.  It's unusual, and beautifully packaged, and there are so many wonderful treats to choose from.  They even have equestrian themed chocolates.  See them at www.harborsweets.com.
• Wellness cookbooks from two of my special friends -- Nancy Waldeck and Hans Rueffert, two cancer survivors and guest chefs at Piedmont's Cancer Wellness Center's cooking programs, both have beautiful cookbooks available through www.amazon.com and their own websites.  Nancy's book Taste and Savor is brand new, and you can see when she'll be available for signings on her website, www.tasteandsavor.com.  Hans' book, Eat Like There's No Tomorrow, made great Christmas gifts for my entire family last year -- www.hanscooks.com.
