Cool Gift of the Day
Tuesday, May 10, 2005
What it is:
Sometimes a gift is so delightfully simple that it seems innovative and obvious all at the same time. A bucket full of lollipops seems faintly silly, but you can't help but smile at the idea. Sure, your recipient may go into sugar overload, but at least they'll have a good time getting there. In a world filled with repetitive, generic and fussy goodie boxes, baskets and towers it's refreshing to receive something something so simple and direct as a big mess of brightly colored lollipops in an old-fashioned pail. There's not much more we can say about it, it really is an idea that speaks for itself.
Why we love it:
It's sweet, it's simple, it's a treat that's nostalgic and instantly recognizable. Also the grape flavored lollipops turn your tongue blue.
Who we'd give it to:
Business associates, anyone getting over an illness, kids, those with a dedicated sweet tooth
Where to get it:
