It seems that is it always that time - birthday, holiday, baby shower, wedding shower, etc... and it is always the same problem- what to get or what to bring. There are so many options- do I make something and if so, what should I bring, something hot, something cold, for how many people? Should I buy something, and if so, what should I take or what should I give them? Snacks are one of our favorite past times, along with having a hot dog at a baseball game, or having popcorn and soda, while at the movie theater. Then you have special single occasions, such as congratulations on the new job, high school graduation, or just a special hello-long time no see- the ideas run wild and then focus to a snack gift basket. Gift baskets are great ideas and there are a million and one gift basket ideas out there, ranging from budget friendly, to above and beyond every ordinary day ideas.

VINTAGE VIGNETTES GIFT BASKET

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!

Friday, August 14, 2009 by Dale Coover

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.

WINE GIFT BASKETS

Is there a special someone in your life that you currently have a crush on? If so, I think I have just the thing to tickle their fancy! How about sending them a lovely wine gift basket? I would venture to bet that the object of your affection would find this to be a very romantic and thoughtful gesture on your part.

We have a wide variety of Unique Gourmet Gift Baskets to choose from, so you are sure to find just the right thing to please that special person in your life. Also, we have specialty gift baskets available in many different price ranges. Therefore, whether you are looking to buy something simple or something really extravagant, we are sure to have just the right basket to accommodate you and your budget! Starting as low as $37.95, we have our lovely Wine and Cheese Board package which includes beef salami, sesame crackers, and Kenwood Red Table wine, just to name a few. If you are really looking to delight and spoil that special wine connoisseur in your life, might I recommend our Super Grand Gourmet basket? This particular gift basket comes with four bottles of our best wines, and it comes chock full of all kinds of different gourmet treats. Just a few examples of the treats this basket comes with are peppermint popcorn, butter cookies, snack mix, and Ghirardelli chocolates. The Super Grand Gourmet basket may seem a bit pricey at $274.95. However, I can assure you that all of the contents included in the basket are of the highest quality, and therefore it is well worth it. If that is more than you want to spend, there is no need to worry as we have many other lovely but less expensive and Unique Gift Baskets to choose from as well. One final thing I'd like to note is that because of state alcohol laws, there are certain states that we are unable to ship our wine gift baskets to. Because of this, I would definitely encourage you to double check the list of states are baskets can be sent to before you go ahead and place your order.

Best of luck to you, and I hope that your wine gift basket helps to stir up some romance between you and your crush! Here's to hoping that maybe they will even invite you over to enjoy a glass of wine or two with them! Take look at our online gift baskets

UNIQUE GOURMET GIFT BASKETS - PART 2

Thursday, July 23, 2009 by Dale Coover

So let's return for a moment to your fantasy. In the blink of an eye, the two of you are lying on the blanket gazing lovingly into each others eyes. You bring out two wine glasses from a picnic basket behind the tree and open a bottle of Avalon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the Napa Cabernet Crush wine gift basket you picked out for the occasion. She holds the glasses while you pour and then you toast, "To you!" you say to her. And she falls in love with you all over again.

Before you know it, she has discovered the Ghirardelli Masterpiece chocolates in the basket and has one melting in her mouth. She is in heaven! Then she discovers the California pistachios. Such bliss.

You are totally happy, as well. You've got beef salami, California crisps crackers, and a Sonoma creamy jack cheese spread to satisfy the appetite you worked up riding and you've got the woman of your dreams sitting beside you. It doesn't get much more perfect than that.

Or does it? After a wonderful nap on the blanket wrapped in each others arms, you awake to find you still have an appetite for each other and then for some more food. You dip into the second gift basket to reveal even more surprises.

This time it's caviar, Pacific Northwest smoked salmon, and creamy jack cheese spread, and you serve her some of each with the cheese knife that came in the Chez Gourmet gift basket. And you do know your woman well, there are more California pistachios and Ghirardelli milk chocolate squares along with kettle fresh chocolate fudge, a rich delectable dessert for her, and peanut butter chocolate cookies, your personal dessert favorite.

As the sun begins to drop low in the sky, the only thing left to do is sigh a contented sigh and enjoy every single moment that's left of your day before you need to pack things up and take the horses back up to the barn. But this gourmet day is one that will never be forgotten.
Take a look at our unique gourmet gift baskets and specialty snack baskets. Pick a theme gift basket , we know they will be warmly received.

UNIQUE GOURMET GIFT BASKETS - PART 1

Wednesday, July 22, 2009 by Dale Coover

A Gourmet Day!

You've got it all planned out perfectly. First, you'll take the horses out for a leisurely ride through the woods and down by the creek. There you'll lead them by hand to where the creek makes the bend by the big willow tree so they can drink fresh water and then tether them to a low branch on a smaller tree. And then you'll take her by the hand and lift the willow branches overhead so she can step into the magical wonderland beneath. She'll gasp when she sees the picnic blanket spread out and the two unique gourmet gift baskets beside the tree trunk. Turning back toward you, her eyes will glisten with tears of joy as she realizes you must have been cooking up this surprise for days or even weeks and here she thought you forgot about her special day.

Yes, you, too, can be the man of the hour (or day or year) when you put the power of unique gourmet gift baskets to work for you and your better half. Being romantic isn't a lot of work when you can grab a theme gift basket or two with everything you need already packed inside and arranged with an artistic touch. And no, just because they're called gift baskets doesn't necessarily make them all girly. There are plenty of theme gift baskets that focus on masculine sports themes, hunting, and fishing, too. But I digress. Right now, we're focusing on how great you are for creating a gourmet day away for the special woman in your life.
