Promising review: "Love the recipes, and the variety: simple, complex, sweet, tart, bitter etc. The literary puns were spot-on, and I liked the idea that the drink could match both the themes at work in the story, and sometimes even the literary criticism surrounding the novel. The suggested games at the end were very funny, and the illustrations also added to the whole presentation." —Spilt Over
Get it from Amazon for $7.39.
Promising review: "With the addition of Boveda humidity packs, this brilliant and versatile humidifier is my new favorite. I re-calibrated my hydrometer and popped it in this with a Bovida 69% humidity pack and it is spot-on. My temperature is pretty solid in the space where I keep my cigars and I have not seen any major swings in humidity. It's simple, useful, and a fantastic investment for keeping several cigars 'at the ready'." —bearto
Get it from Amazon for $12.58.
Promising review: "This color is amazing. People stop me all the time wanting to know which salon I went to. They always think it's gel too. I have tried it over black nail polish and it does last longer and I've tried it with just two coats and it's still beautiful." —England86

Promising review: "I purchased this for one of my teenagers a year ago. Honestly, this is ideally suited for a rookie. It gives the beginner an idea of tarot cards in general. It's an affordable and nice starter set. Don't get me wrong...this kit is appropriate for beginners and seasoned souls. I only mean if you're looking for an introductory set this one is great. My 16-year-old loves it." —Oregonians

Promising Review: "Saw this on a Food Network show and decided to try! LOVE IT! Great honey taste with just a bit of heat at the end. My husband loves 'hot' foods and even grows his own peppers to put on anything. He really likes this on his French toast and I like it with peanut butter. However, I just made baked beans and added a tablespoon of Mike's Hot in addition to the brown sugar (reduced amount) and they were the BEST baked beans ever!" —Ritakc

Promising review: I love the variety in this package! I shared them with my family, all of whom have different skin care needs and so this was perfect! I used the hydrating masks and they left my skin feeling wonderful." —Jennifer Lee
Get a 15-pack from Amazon for $16.97.
Promising review: "I have tried many different eye masks and pillows and combinations with the gel mask and was still looking for the right one. This one has all the features I wanted. I love the silk, it's the only way to go because it's natural and breaths nicely and stays cool to the touch and lightweight. The ability to change the inside bag with various things and adjust the weight is another awesome feature. But one step further and this definitely tipped the scale, if you put the gel eye mask in the fridge/freezer for a couple of minutes and then remove the muslin sack from the eye pouch, you can put the gel mask in the silk eye patch for a fabulous cooling sleep eye mask. The band on the back is soft and easy to adjust as well." —Colleen Myers
Get it from Amazon for $16.95.
Promising review: "I've never used a mat for baking before but I'm never looking back now. This is a nice solid silicone, while remaining completely flexible. I love that it is super big so I can keep everything contained too. Cleanup is a breeze, everything wipes right off. I have a marble countertop and this mat stays exactly where it put it like glue. It has all the measuring equivalents right on the mat, no more googling with floury fingers. I can lift the mat to slide the shell right into the pan, no sticking. All around great purchase!!" —Kathy Henninger
Get it from Amazon for $16.95+ (available in two sizes).
I will never stop putting this in gift posts! For one, I have this in my apartment and it never fails to start conversation. The fabric is great quality and has held up incredibly well. TL;DR: this is the best thing you could ever spend $8 on.

Promising review: "This necklace is more pretty in person. I love the large size of the letter pendant, chain length, and how it's attached to the chain to give it a offset angle once you put it on. It looks really trendy and personalized once you match it with a cute outfit." —Erin Delancy
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in every letter in the alphabet).
Seriously, this book is amazing! Read a BuzzFeeder's full review on Home Comforts here.
Promising review: "From age-old advice to updated, improved information on everything home related, this book is a gem. It's practical, easy to read, interesting and detailed. I first borrowed it from the library and then realized we needed it on our bookshelf. My husband refers to it as well, as the seasons turn and home care varies from winter to summer. There has been an unexpected additional benefit to this book: We appreciate our house, our possessions and our domestic time together even more." —Cozy Cottage
Get it from Amazon for $15.53.
Promising review: "I LOVE these little cards! I’m old school and actually handwrite letters, cards, and notes. I love adding one of these in them for a pop of color and as a keepsake. These are great to put in my lunchbox too as a pick-me-up during a hard week. Also super fun to leave for your servers or strangers. A little kindness goes a long way!" —Abby B.

Promising review: "I've played a lot of board games and card games; a favorite is Cards Against Humanity in our house. After 15 minutes of play I feel this game will be another favorite. It's simple enough to learn in 10 minutes yet complex enough to keep advanced players on their toes. I was surprised at the complexity of the rules, to be honest, and the fact there are two versions (standard and advanced) allows you to tailor the experience depending on the players. Also it is very small so it's easy to take with you. A worthwhile purchase if you like board/card games, even if you don't like Rick and Morty. Recommended." —Geoff C.
Get it from Amazon for $9.19 (also available in a board game).
Promising review: "Compared to MANY other earbuds that I've had that cost $75, $100, $150, these sound as good as any of them. I'm astounded! I use these for running, and I've attached them to my sunglasses along with my iPod Shuffle. I figured for $8, I could afford to sweat up a few of these and replace them whenever I needed to. I'VE RUN 1,500 MILES WITH THESE in the last year and a half! I've gone through four pairs of New Balance shoes, two iPod Shuffles, three pairs of sunglasses, and am on the SAME set of earbuds! And, THEY STILL SOUND GREAT!" —Gene Goodell
Get them from Amazon for $9.17+ (available in 15 colors, and with or without a mic).

Promising review: "For Christmas, I wanted something personal for my boyfriend. Sometimes I feel like there isn't enough time to show your appreciation for the one you love. After doing some researching, I decided on this fill-in-the-blank book. Some of the questions were a bit goofy and a laugh for us both but I loved being able to fill out and answer the questions. It was a gift that he definitely will remember and it made my day to see how much he appreciated hearing all the things I love about him!" —Jenna G.

Promising review: "The consistency of these masks is awesome. The cool rubber really feels luxurious. Making it felt a little stressful because I didn’t want it to harden so I had to move fast.
