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.

On our way somewhere

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.
