In Japanese cuisine, sushi is vinegared rice, usually topped with other ingredients, including fish, various meats, and vegetables. Outside of Japan, sushi is sometimes misunderstood to mean the raw fish itself, or even any fresh raw-seafood dishes. In Japan, sliced raw fish alone is called sashimi and is distinct from sushi, as sashimi is the raw fish component, not the rice component. The word sushi itself comes from an archaic grammatical form of a word that is no longer used in other contexts; literally, “sushi” means “it’s sour”.
Sushi themed products are making their way everywhere. It may be the incredibly eye capturing design of how Sushi looks. Possibly it just is the taste of seaweed, rice and raw fish all in one adorable bundle of fishy happiness. Whatever it may be, here are some great gifts for your Sushi crazed friends

Don’t worry, this post is completely “G” Rated!
A Love Sac does tend to sound like something dirty, however it is the greatest invention since…well…anything! It may look somewhat like a beanbag to you, but it is far from it.
When you buy a Love Sac, you get 2 different things, a Designer Cover of your choice and Durafoam Inserts. The Sac Insert is a double-stitched khaki insert filled with shredded DuraFoam, not beads or beans like the bags of yesterday. DuraFoam filled Sac Inserts never go flat, break, or leak…ever. The DuraFoam-filled Sac Insert comes with the “Forever Love” Sac Guarantee and is guaranteed for two lifetimes. And best of all, Sac Inserts are shrunken down for easy shipping and then they expand to their natural fluffiness.

Although the fish bowl in the picture to the left is stunning and definitely the most original fishbowl I have ever seen, not in a million years would I ever pay the amount it is selling for, not even if I was a billionaire and it was considered chump change.
This Steuben Glass limited edition fish bowl, a total of 50 exist, is a whopping $25,000! Yes, there is supposed to be three zeros on that! If I had $25,000 dollars just lying around, I would probably donate it to an animal shelter instead of my five dollar beta, because honestly, I highly doubt he knows the difference between the Steuben Glass bowl and the $25 bowl I found online.

This is by far, one of my favorite kitchen products made yet! As morbid as this may be, it is equally just as hysterical. What better way to take out your anger then on an inanimate object?
Created by the incredibly talented designer Raffelle Iannello, this creatively unique piece of work stands 15 1/2 inches tall! When the knives are in place, the individual is stabbed strategically in the head, stomach, chest and legs. Fabulous isn’t it?

Soapylove products are one of my absolute favorite gifts! They make a wonderful gift for anyone, especially kids. It isn’t difficult with there incredibly appealing looks to get kids to want to wash there hands!
Created by a mother of two, Debbie Chialtas started making soap as a hobby back in 2005 while she was pregnant with her first child. Since then Soapylove has gone from being a beloved hobby into a full time business and one she absolutely loves!
You may be wondering “Wouldn’t kids want to eat them?” and “Isn’t that dangerous?” Debbie answered this common question on her website
“Sometimes, and no. Sometimes kids want to taste the soaps because they look like freezer pops. If they do, the soaps are totally harmless if swallowed. My recommendation is to explain to the child that it isn’t food and they usually get it.”

Another year is coming to an end and it’s time to head off and find ourselves calendars for the upcoming year. Things may be tough right now for the general population, however we can always count on a calendar full of funny sayings, quotes and puns to at least bring a smile to our somewhat gloomy faces. Plus it’s always great to have a calendar around so we do not forget the important events of our lives, you know… like last year when you were supposed to pick up your mom from the airport after work and wrote it on your hand… but then it smudged and you completely forgot about it? 3 words - Love Your Calendar!

Work can stress anyone out. It doesn’t matter what job you do, whether you work in the office all day, are outside building houses in the freezing cold or perhaps a stay at home mom. Everyone needs a chance to unwind from the daily grind and relax. It is the only way you can really stay sane and be able to get up in the morning and do it again. Unfortunately sometimes we feel that it’s hard to fit into our schedules. I myself have had the trouble of trying to implement “me” time into my hectic schedule.
I find the best thing to help me personally relax is taking a long hot bath. It helps me relax before bed and makes it a lot easier to sleep. I love that my skin always feels so soft after to from my favorite bath products. Here are some must haves that you can pick up for yourself or get them together in a bundle for a friend and give them as a gift. Nothing says “I Love You!” like bath products! Find something you like? Click on the picture to purchase it!

Well boys and men, This post is for you. If you just don’t know what to get your girlfriends or wives for that special occasion, any bath products will be welcomed with open arms.
As odd as it may seem, most girls are perfectly happy pouring endless amounts of bath products in their scorching hot baths, dimming the lights or using candles and curling up with a good book. It’s just a great way to relax after a long day at work. So I present you with these incredibly enticing bath bombs. They are unusual I know, but sooo great!

What’s more fun than a barrel of monkies? Voodoo Toothpick Holders and Brain Jello Mold’s of course. Some Gag gifts are hilarious, yet a lot of them don’t seem to get much use… well unless you are 5 years old and grandpa just bought you your very first whoopie cushion.
Well instead of useless presents, this week I present you with “The Gift of a Funny Kitchen”. Oodles of useful kitchen gadgets that will make your guests laugh until they pee! Maybe I should feature carpet cleaning products next?

Don’t worry…you are not the only one. This Antique Victorian pattern, which used to be seen most commonly used as wallpaper, is making a huge comeback! You won’t believe how many products I found scattered across the internet. You could literally decorate your entire house, and trust me, if I could afford it, I most likely would
I obviously couldn’t post everything I found here, it would be an incredibly long post. However I did pick some of the better things that I found that seem to be climbing wish list charts!

Work always seems to drag by incredibly slow…especially when it gets down to that last hour. I find myself buying endless supplies of sticky notes to cover up the time on my monitor just so it “seems” like it is going by faster. I’m sure most of you know what I am talking about. So here’s a list of unusually great clocks to clutter up your desk at work. Who knows? Some of these are so crazy…they may actually pass the time!

Puzzle Cube Alarm Clock
The 80’s saw many trends come and go - our favorite, of course, was legwarmers, but coming in a close second were those colorful cubic twisty puzzles that boggled our minds. Remember solving them with a screwdriver? Yeah, we did that, too. We won’t tell if you don’t. Since we live the cube, it’s time to BE the cube. Our desktops will show our love for the venerable puzzle from the days of Duran Duran. The LCD display of this unique clock shows the time, sure, but give the top-row a twist, and you can switch the display between the Alarm, Calendar, and even the Temperature settings!
