John & Kira's ladybug chocolates are ready to fly
No matter how early I start my Christmas shopping, I'm always left with
a couple of gifts to buy at the last minute. This year, instead of
braving the crowds at the malls (shudder), I'm going to let CMP fave
John & Kira chocolates save the day. We've featured John & Kira's delectable chocolate ladybugs before, and these gift chocolates are all dressed up for the holidays. Sporting a red or green dark chocolate shell, the inside of these little treats are filled with either scrumptious red raspberry or cool green mint ganache.
Not only are they adorable, I'm thrilled that they can still be delivered in time for Christmas. Get your order in by 5pm EST Monday (as in, today), and they'll be where you need them to be by Christmas Eve. I call that a Christmas miracle. -Christina

Help! I am about to send my 3-year-old off to preschool this year and I am looking for a cute backpack in her size that is minus the TV characters. Any suggestions? - Jessica
If you search "backpack" on our site you'll see some great ones, like one of our favorites - Dante Beatrix. Our own daughters just got through their first preschool with their panda bag. And we love the bright colorful backpacks from Dabawalla.
Stay tuned for our Back to School shopping guide, out again in August with some new ideas as well.
