The Gift Exchange

As a girl I had wild dreams of one day experiencing a Valentines day like they they do in the movies. Rose petals everywhere, champagne for the masses and prince charming on one knee with a diamond that would put the Heart of the Ocean to shame.  In grade school my dad brought me and [...]

I think I have found the perfect gift for my sister in law who is recovering from a recent illness. The Lounging Leopard Aromatherapy Neck Wrap Animal Pillow!  Who doesn’t like a little extra warmth on their neck & shoulders?  And the animal is so cute & cuddly, everyone in the family will want to [...]

This Royal English Tea Tower has got to be my all-time favorite Wedding or house warming gift! This gift has it all!  And with so many things to keep and reuse, It’s completely perfect! With two beautiful fine porcelain tea mugs, this would be a great gift to send to Grandma, then show up at [...]

Not only does it have the most awesome snacks to go with the coffees, but it [...]

I recently spent time in the Middle East with friends who have relocated there. I saw some of the most beautiful sites my eyes have ever seen. Experienced heat comparable to being roasted in an oven, and tasted foods that made my pallet rejoice. Of all the things I took in over my long journey, [...]
