The best of 2011: We're thankful for...

As if "New Girl" and She & Him weren't enough to make us want to forever hitch our apple wagon to Zooey Deschanel's star, she's now appealing to that part of us that wants to read about nail polish when we should be responding to important work e-mails. Hellogiggles.com, which Deschanel started with two friends, is a plethora of awesomeness. It gives us our daily dose of adorable, wholesome LOLs, without feeling too carefully curated. Plus... it understands us.
