SAY THANKS WITH SPECIALTY GIFT BASKETS

Monday, August 31, 2009 by Dale Coover

 

Let's focus on the types of snacks available to purchase and send to for that special occasion.  They have Unique Gourmet Gift Baskets  that consist of mugs, coffee, teas, cookies, kitchen necessities, chocolates, or a combination of all that and more.  There is nothing like a hot cup of java to get your mornings going, or a sip of tea if you prefer coffee and tea gift baskets. Another category MEAT AND CHEESE GIFT BASKETS   This selection consists of fine meat and cheese, in combination with sausages, biscuits, cool cutlery, special mustards, old style salt-water taffy, and so much more.  The meat and cheese collection can please anyone from a football fan, to dad at father's day, to that high-end client.  Let's not forget the baskets for movies at home, gourmet chocolates and  candy, coke products, gourmet jellybeans, and anything your mind can imagine.  All of these can be purchased at reasonable prices.

 And if that special someone has to watch their diet or control their sugar, it can be done with a special gift basket too.  There are baskets made to follow doctor's orders.  Some of the baskets consist of sugar-free products, such as brownie bites, chocolate candies, cookies, and tropical candies. The doctor ordered to keep it light- no problem- the answer must be in the basket with the chicken noodle soup and crackers.  So, that age old question of what to send to show you care can all be wrapped up in a nice basket.  Remember, there are baskets for all occasions, gift baskets for him or her, Kosher Food Gift Basket, and Specialty Snack Baskets  of all sorts.  The toughest part is deciding with which snack basket to choose, from the fruits and nuts, to the tea and cookies, to the candy baskets that make your mouth water just looking at them.  Treat them to that snack basket that they will savor with each bite.

TAKE A HIKE!! AND A THEME GIFT BASKET PART 2

Saturday, August 15, 2009 by Dale Coover

If you do want to splurge a little to make a special memory or celebrate something in particular with your hike and picnic—or if you just don’t feel like putting a picnic lunch together on your own, you can also purchase ready made meat and cheese gift baskets that look attractive and contain small sizes of lots of little goodies so you and your guest can sample lots of treats and focus on each other. You can buy unique gourmet gift baskets designed around themes, as well—like wine and cheese, chocolate and fruit, and others—if meat and cheese gift baskets aren’t really your thing.

Even big city residents can find a place to take a hike and a picnic nearby if they think outside the box. Why not take a “hike” up and down the hills in San Francisco and then have a picnic at the waterfront? Or take a “hike” to the top floor of a tall building in your city and then ride the elevator down and picnic in the building’s atrium or courtyard?

If you live in a high rise, how about hiking to the roof of your complex and enjoying the view along with a picnic lunch? Or even “hiking” out onto the terrace or fire escape? Try something different for a change! Remember, it’s really romantic in the movies, right? So give it a try.

And if you’re not a great cook, don’t worry about it. Meat and cheese gift baskets can make life easy. And unique gourmet gift baskets are an easy way to make a great impression without lifting a finger.

So what are you waiting for? Go take a hike! And don’t forget the picnic lunch.

TAKE A HIKE!! TAKE A SNACK GIFT BASKET WITH YOU!

Take A Hike! – And Have a Picnic

No matter where you live, and even in tough economic times, there is one activity almost everyone can afford: to go on a hike and have a picnic! We’ve all seen the scenes in the movies—where a couple heads out to a beautiful hilly or mountainous setting for a short hike through the hills and the woods and then settles down for a beautiful, romantic lunch on a blanket spread on the grass or in the shade beneath a tree. They might pull out a couple of meat and cheese gift baskets—or one of many other unique gourmet gift baskets that look both beautiful and delicious—and enjoy wine, caviar, cheese, crackers, and other delicacies. It looks like so much fun! Yet how often do we take the time to do something like that?

You don’t have to reside in the mountains or drive to a national park to enjoy a hike and a picnic. And you don’t have to spend a lot either. You can save money and take a much-needed R&R break in your hometown or even your own backyard. Take a hike—or a walk—to a local park to spread out your meal and enjoy it in the outdoors with the person you love. Almost every town or city has beautiful parks waiting to be discovered. When is the last time you’ve visited one of yours? If you want to save money, pack a picnic lunch utilizing whatever you happen to have in the house—like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, cupcakes, and apple juice—and focus on enjoying the time together. Pack it in a basket, a cooler, or a backpack—whatever works.

Monday, August 10, 2009 by Dale Coover
Healthy Attack Again!

Who doesn't love snacks? I don't think I want to know them, if you really want to impress somebody then send them a snack gift basket. Sure you could go out and buy some chips and find a nice bowl to put them in but that's been done before. A snack gift basket is arranged to let the person know who receives it that they are special and it’s a gift that you can be sure they will love.

Depending on the person you are buying for you can find a specialty gift basket that will make their eyes light up with joy. A snack gift basket makes a great gift too because you know its practical and when it shows up on the gift table it towers over the wrapped gifts and begs to be chosen first. The great thing about a snack gift basket is the theme, you can order one for the football fan or baseball nut, they have them for the movie goers and the griller.

Happy Birthday! Great Gift Basket Ideas for Kids

Wednesday, July 15, 2009 by Dale Coover
If there’s one thing every kid loves to get when they celebrate their birthday, it’s a surprise! Kids of all ages absolutely love surprises. That’s why gift baskets make such great birthday gift ideas! They’re fun, exciting, colorful, and full of surprises. And kids like digging through them to discover all of the little gifts they contain.

Kid gift baskets combine all sorts of the other fun things kids love. Almost all birthday gift baskets for kids have a common element: candy. From Jelly Belly candies and gummy bears to lemon drops and licorice, delicious treats help satisfy a sweet tooth and add lots of colorful festivity to a gift basket.

Another great kid-friendly item to include in gift baskets for kids is a plush, stuffed animal. Teddy bears are a traditional favorite, but plush animals now come in almost every species imaginable—like lions, monkeys, hippos, dogs, and even owls—so you can treat your child to a soft, cuddly creature from the woods, the jungle, or the zoo.

Childhood activities are also a great addition to a gift basket. Kids love blowing bubbles and coloring, so bottles of bubbles, coloring or activity books, and crayons are always a fun thing to add.

A party in a basket is always a great idea, too. What makes a great birthday party for a kid? How about birthday hats, balloons, noise makers, horn blowers, Happy Birthday fortune cookies, disposable cameras, and birthday candles?

For older children, you may want to go with a themed gift basket. Teenagers and pre-teens may be a little too old for coloring books and crayons, but they definitely love movies. So consider amovie night gift basket. Start off with some Blockbuster gift cards and add all the fixings for a Friday night in front of the tube watching the latest releases or a classic flick. Classic Coke will cure the thirsties; M&Ms and licorice will satisfy the sweet tooth; and popcorn and Cracker Jacks will provide the salt and the crunch and the answer to the munchies.

You could even get a gift basket organized around an older kid’s favorite hobby or pastime—like shooting darts (with a bull’s-eye and dart package and some great snack items), fishing, hiking, racing (go with a checkered flag theme), baseball, football, golfing (don’t forget the golf balls and tees), hunting, or NASCAR.

Girls—regardless of their age—are always fond of chocolate, so a chocolate-themed gift basket is always a winner. And for older girls like teenagers, spa-type gift baskets filled with luxuries like bubble bath, lotions, massagers, eye masks, manicure and pedicure sets, candles, plush towels, Loofah slippers, scented sprays, and/or a plush terry cloth robe are a dream come true.

No matter how old—or young—the kid, a gift basket makes the perfect gift because it can be customized to that specific child and his or her interests. Filled with her favorite things, designed around a theme, or based on the child’s age, you can fit tons of small gifts and surprises in a gift basket—or another holder like a small cooler, a flower pot, a metal or plastic bucket, or a tote bag that fits with the theme—and make a huge impact.

Fruits and nuts, meats and cheeses, swirled lollipops, chocolate chip cookies, candy sticks, popcorn and candy bars, bottled water and soda, chocolates, truffles, and even kosher items like rugelach make great food gifts beautifully presented in a gift basket. Toys, treats, and hobby-themed gift baskets are also big hits.

Topped off with a bow or ribbon in a vibrant color and lovingly arranged to make a wonderful presentation, an assortment of items in a gift basket will be a big hit with all kids—no matter what their age—and a wonderful way to celebrate a very special, very Happy Birthday.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

Send Good Wishes With A Get Well Gift Basket

Monday, July 13, 2009 by Dale Coover
Whether it is a close friend, a family member, an acquaintance, a good client, or a business associate, when someone is ill, injured, or recovering from surgery, you want to do something to let them know you care. They’re probably already inundated with flowers and plants, so you want to send something different and unique—something that’s a little more practical or a little more personal.

Get well gift baskets are the perfect solution. You can get theme gift baskets to reflect that person’s special interests or hobbies—like golfing gift baskets for men or women, NASCAR racing gift baskets, football or baseball gift baskets, fishing or hunting gift baskets, hiking gift baskets, movie gift baskets, spa gift baskets, and gardening gift baskets. Filled with great items like Blockbuster gift cards, scented lotions, golf balls, plush terry towels, seeds, and gardening tools, gardening gloves, water cans, and other useful and practical gifts, these gift baskets are sure to outlast the recovery period and help get the recipient back into the regular swing of things.

Gift baskets can also be filled with little extravagances that show the recipient you remember some of their favorite treats and want to provide a little pick-me-up. Whether that is chocolate covered cherries, pecan popcorn, Jelly Belly candies, red licorice, swirled lollipops, or gourmet caramels, candy and other sweets are sure to make a big hit. But if you need to create a sugar-free gift basket, you can do that, too. Mugs and flavored coffees and teas, biscottis, almond cookies, chocolate dipped spoons, and crossword puzzles are another great option—and will help the recipient sit back, take it easy, and relax and recover.

For patients with dietary restrictions, you can even send a 100 percent healthy gift basket comprised of dozens of different combinations of delicious fruits—like navel oranges, grapefruit, green apples, red delicious apples, jonagold apples, granny smith apples, comice pears, bosc pears, concord pears, columbia d'anjou pears, seckel pears, Asian pears, pineapple, and dried fruits—and nuts and cheeses. Monterey jack, medium cheddar, pistachios, mixed nuts, almonds, and other cheeses and nuts—along with some crackers and relish—make great additions to food gift baskets.

For Jewish friends, kosher gift baskets containing items like old world fruit hamentashen or rugelach; kosher cheeses—such as baby gouda, marinated braided mozzarella, la chevre fresh goats milk cheese with roasted garlic and parsley, and corner cheese imported from Switzerland; smoked salmon and salmon pates; crispy flat breads; and fruits such as apricots and prunes are a wonderful gift idea when someone is feeling under the weather.

You can even choose get well gift baskets for kids—containing plush stuffed animals they can cuddle as they recuperate, coloring books and crayons to keep them busy if they’re bedridden, or bottles of bubbles to put a smile back on their face. Of course, candy filled treat gift baskets are always greeted with a smile—as long as the items inside are within any dietary restrictions for their condition and they can eat them as tolerated.

Believe it or not, delicious delicacies like cheesecake, bottles of wine, and lobster pate can even be incorporated into a gift basket and—when properly shipped—arrive safe and sound and perfectly presented.

From food items like cheese spreads and breadsticks to mints and merlot, bing cherry and blueberry chocolates to pretzels and red pepper relish, summer fruit salad to Sonoma creamy jack cheese, you can pack a basket with flavors and delights for even the fussiest eaters and most finicky patients. Gift items like steel paella pans and tapas plates, leather trimmed wine bottle carrying cases with wine flutes, stainless steel colanders, fishing creels, wooden clocks, backpacks, and barbeque tongs and aprons can all be incorporated into gift baskets and have long-lasting value, so they’ll last far longer than flowers. With all of the options available, gift baskets are quite simply the perfect get well gift for anyone you know.

They’ll demonstrate your attention to detail, the fact that you care enough to send them something truly personal, and your warm love and concern—even if you can’t be there in person. They are the perfect way to show you care. So don’t just send a bouquet or a gift. Send an entire gift basket along with a heartfelt “Get Well Soon” message.

A Corporate Holiday Gift Basket

Monday, April 6, 2009 by Dale Coover
Would a corporate holiday gift baskets be welcome at this meeting?
The rock below is a out cropping called a kopje ( pronounced  copy, it is a dutch word ). The pride rock is the one featured in the Lion King.


It looks like a great place to explore, but lions do gather there and plenty of snakes so not a good idea to wander in.
I could see them just like in the movie, holding a meeting with a cookies gift basket and some meat and cheese gift baskets, discussing their next move, just kidding. I believe they call them kopje because there are many of them, and they start to look the same ( copy ). Bookmark ( copy ) our website to your favorites. We start to look like the others, but we are not the same. 
Take a look below and see what I mean. I hope you like the picture until next time ENJOY !

On our way somewhere

Wednesday, March 25, 2009 by Dale Coover

These guys where in no hurry in fact they where taking there time. Checking out the scenery looking for a snack gift basket or coffee and tea gift baskets or just any thing to eat period !
It was amazing to be this close to them with out a fence between us and yet feel secure.



This big guy was not in a hurry either! They would knock a tree down so they could get to the tasty leaves they wanted. At night you would hear the tree cracking of couse it was too dark to see them but you knew they where near. I wish I could have interested them in some movie gift baskets or a specialty snack basket.



As you can see they where just grazing, didn't seam to mind us at all.
When the baby elephants came thru the mothers did get between them and us just in case we might try to take one home.





















Under the weather ?

Friday, March 13, 2009 by Dale Coover
When the weather goes from 60 one day to -10 the next day it's easy to feel under the weather. Going from warm indoors to the cold out side, back and forth to work can run you down. I know of no cure other than try to take care of yourself. Eat right, get your beauty sleep, dress appropriately.
If and when you do feel under the weather don't pass it on ( especially to me ! ) The difference one day can make between being out for a week or a day depends on you.
So if you are under the weather, sorry and get well soon.

Your-giftbaskets.com has get well gift baskets, theme gift baskets,like movie gift baskets, coffee and tea gift baskets and specialty gift baskets that may bright up some ones day. Please visit and see what we have to offer.
