Like office-wide memos, holiday-themed cookies convey concise messages and can adhere to refrigerator doors using frosting. Send deliciously persistent signals with today's Groupon: for $15, you get one dozen personalized cookies at Gigi's Signature Bakery in Greensburg (a $35.88 value).
Gigi and her team of expert bakers garner palate popularity with each customizable batch of scrumptious sugar cookies made for any special occasion. Gourmet cookie crafters hand-press dough before cutting it into a selection of more than 100 fetching shapes, such as hearts for celebrating Valentine's Day or laundry baskets for sending nonconfrontational requests to help around the house. The skilled confectioners then scrawl personalized messages in frosting over each sugary delight before individually wrapping cookies and stowing them away in a bag with a bow. Groupon customers will also receive 20% off any additional orders made at the time of redemption.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: The Ultimate Snowman
Any fool with a pair of mittens can construct a passable facsimile of a human out of powdered frozen vapor, but it takes a true Picasso of precipitation to create a frosty masterwork. Follow these tips to create a snow sculpture that will endure forever, unless the temperature rises even slightly:
• Stack ‘em High: While traditional snowmen are comprised of three snowy spheroids stacked in ascending size for a more stable base and welcoming maternal curves, there’s no reason to stop there. Continue adding snowballs until your snowman is a gently tapering caterpillar towering gingerly into lower orbit—then decorate its face using a remote-controlled helicopter.
• Don’t Mess with a Classic: Carrot noses were introduced in the 1600s to ridicule Guy Fawkes, a famous waster of then-precious vegetables. Keep his legacy alive today by shoving a carrot into your snowman’s face. If unavailable due to rabbit plagues or juicing fads, just steal a traffic cone from your nearest miniature village.
• Attain Anatomical Accuracy: Keep your snowman’s proportions frighteningly human by having a friend volunteer to act as an armature for you to pack snow onto. He belongs to winter now.
