And in Snooki news this from Goddoss:

Hours after giving birth to Lorenzo "Enzo" Dominic LaValle on Sunday morning, Snooki (real name: Nicole Polizzi) gave Cooper a Twitter shout-out in appreciation for the present he sent. "Thank u so much. Just got ur gift!" she wrote. "We love you, Mr.Anderstand!" So what did Cooper send the 24-year-old first-time mom: A leopard-print Onesie? Baby tanning lotion? A jar of specialty pickles? None of the above.

Cooper's gift was in fact a sweet one. He sent Snooki two dozen cannolis from Carlo's Bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey, a rep for his daytime show, "Anderson Live," tells omg! exclusively. The famed bakery is featured on the TLC reality show "Cake Boss," which centers on Buddy Valastro and his family of tasty treat makers.
