What Would Andy Samberg Do for a Klondike Bar?

GiggleSugar — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 01:00:00 -0700

The annoying talking food phenomenon continues! Heartthrob at large, Andy Samberg, has a problem. His Klondike bar just got dumped, it's feeling kinda lonely, and wants someone to hang out and snuggle with. Andy doesn't typically "snuggle," but will he do it for a Klondike bar? He says "no." The manipulative ice cream treat has another answer in mind. The sitch goes sour from there . . . (Warning: NSFW language)

Dear Poll: Would You Ever Consider Being a Surrogate Mom?

DearSugar — Mon, 12 May 2008 16:00:00 -0700

Unfortunately, not all women can get pregnant. But then there are some that can get pregnant, they just can't carry their baby full term. Of course adoption is an option, but if you want your own mini me, having a surrogate is another great alternative. The use of surrogate mothers carries a weight of controversy, but calling upon a woman close to you, a best friend or sister is a different story; it might just be one of the biggest favors a woman can ask. Of course, this would never be a rash decision, but I'm incredibly curious, if your sister or closest friend came to you with this request, would you consider being their surrogate mother?

2-In-1 Travel Tag Favor/Placecard

partysugar — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 09:39:31 -0700

I'm an avid traveler and big time country dropper. I like to pretend I'm a jet-setter and really do have friends all over the world. When I saw these cute little travel tags, I suddenly wished I wasn't planning Julie's Wedding but my own! Travel tags are something everyone can use, but don't necessarily buy for themselves - making the little tags a wonderful and practical favor! Slide a small piece of paper with each guests name written in the most beautiful calligraphy and voila! The favor becomes a placecard! Name the tables after your favorite travel destinations and loop a card that resembles a boarding pass with the name of each destination (table) through the black leather strap of the travel tag. Hang all of the travel tags/placecards on a large map with pretty glass head pins. In the future when your guests travel the world they will remember back to your wedding day!

2-In-1 Votive Decoration/Favor

If you are looking for a way to cut costs on your wedding think about using a favor that doubles as a decoration like these fabulous frosted beaded tea light holders. They come in a variety of colors and can add a touch of glowing light to a table. Place each one on the guests' plates and they will know that when the night is over they can blow the candle out and take the votive home. A useful favor that both you and your guests can enjoy. Or if you prefer to give out other favors arrange these candles around a vase filled with flowers on top of a mirror for a beautiful and simple yet stunning centerpiece. Can't afford tons of flowers for each table, create the same effect with the mirror and votives and scatter rose petals (which you can get day old from the florists) in between the votives.

Dear Poll: Do You Ask Your Friends For Favors?

DearSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 08:00:00 -0700

It's inevitable that we sometimes have to ask our friends for favors, whether it's help with a move, a ride to the airport, a place to crash, or a recommendation for a job. Some people demand huge favors of their friends, while others hate asking for even the tiniest smidgen of help. Where do you fall on the favor spectrum?

Etsy Find: Hip Wedding Favors

CasaSugar — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 12:00:14 -0700

Since I'm trying to decide what type of wedding favors to have at my wedding this Summer, I had to tell all those other brides out there about these adorable Origami Wedding Favors ($25 for the first 25). Not only will they give your wedding guests something to do while making awkward small talk with your distant relatives, it'll also give them a pop quiz on your dating history. These cute little wedding favors hearken back to the days of playing "Fortune Teller" (also known as "Cootie Catcher" in some circles) on the bus ride home from grade school, only these Fortune Tellers are personalized with questions about you and your future husband.

The favors are made from 24-lb. ivory parchment paper, and are available in a variety of paper and ink colors. Are you as delighted by these favors as I am? For all of our wedding coverage, check out IDoSugar.
