You can be Santa's little helper

Christmas is only 10 days away. If you find yourself wandering aimlessly around the shopping mall, or surfing the Internet, clueless as to what to give your mother-in-law or your best friend, we might be able to help.

Here are a few suggestions that we've put together, from cookbooks to coffeemakers. Look for more ideas over the next few days in the Lifestyle section.

Coffee in a jiff Genio is the most popular single-serve coffee machine in the Nescafé Dolce Gusto line. We gave it a try and it produces a very hot, very quick, tasty cup of coffee. Although it's compact, it holds enough water in the reservoir for three cups of coffee. The Dolce Gusto line brews 19 different hot and cold beverages, from a classic Americano, to a fat-free Skinny Cappuccino. The unit utilizes patented individual "Smart Capsules," similar to K-cups, but does not use K-cups. The Genio sells for $129.99 and is available online at dolce-gusto.us, bedbathandbeyond.com, QVC and www.Target.com.
