I need your help ladies finding a gift - I wanted to do a box of little-r gifts representing sweet, geek and "spicy." I have the Geek - that is what started this whole idea but the spicy and the sweet I don't know really. It needs to be light enough to ship. I was thinking of the sweet being food - like hot cinnamon marshmallows and the spicy being a set of dice I found on Etsy... But I don't know a part of me wants it to be even more creative - then again I could end up in the endless cycle of trying to top myself - and it is just Valentine's Day...

PS This was my solution to the whole "keep reading" technical issue I was having
