The Holidays are Close!

It may seem like summer just arrived, but before you know it the holidays will be in full swing with those old familiar jingles playing on the radio every time you start your car and department stores stocking up on Christmas trees and ornaments while the kids are still playing at the pool.  It seems like the holiday season begins to arrive just a bit earlier each and every year, and that is ok with me!  The Christmas season is a time of reflection and happiness that no other time of the year can compare to.  That age old feeling you have where everyone seems a bit nicer and more tolerable of each other is something I wish we could package in a bottle and reflect on throughout the year.

Doing for others is the backbone of this sacred holiday and what a feeling of happiness and goodwill we are able to create and share as we focus on each other rather than ourselves.  Although we are still a couple of months away from posting our newest Christmas Holiday Gift Baskets and gifts for this season, we just wanted to take a minute to say during the summer heat waves the heat can be unbearable and can cause irritability and impatience.  However, just take a moment to think about the upcoming Christmas season and what it would mean to spread that kind of happiness throughout the year, even the unbearable summer months.  Share a smile, send a thank you gift to someone deserving, and bottle your own holiday spirit as much as possible.  Kindness doesn't have to be exhibited only during the month of December!

Super Summer Gift Ideas

The Gift Basket Pros have a great fun-filled collection of incredible summer gifts for all of those special memory making occasions.  From the Mrs. Fields Beach Ball Gift Box where the colorful box mimics a beach ball and is filled with fresh baked cookies, to the Gardening Gift Tote for Her where she will enjoy the summer spending long days in her garden, you are sure to find the perfect treat to put a smile on their face.

Memorial Day Tribute

The Memorial Day holiday is known to Americans as "Decoration Day", which is a day of remembrance for our troops that died in battle defending our great country.  Although there are many claims as to where the actual birthplace of Memorial Day originated, Waterloo, New York was officially assigned the home of this time honored tradition back in 1966.

The purpose of Memorial Day dates back to the Civil War as a means to honor our fallen heroes.  This day is intended as a celebration to decorate the graves of those who died while fighting for this great nation of ours.  No particular war or battle is needed for reference, just the knowledge that our men and women that fought for the United States of America and have lost their lives, are continually honored in the long standing tradition.

In 1971, Congress passed the National Holiday Act establishing a three day weekend which occurs on the last Monday of each May.  This established a Federal Holiday that is now celebrated as the unofficial start of summer.  We celebrate today with weekend grill parties, patriotic gifts, kids splashing in pools, and our American flags waving high.  And although we throw parties and barbecue with friends and family, we will never forget the ultimate sacrifice that each fallen hero has made.

Christmas Cookies

The weather outside may be frightful but fresh baked cookies will make everyone warm inside!  Sure to please nearly everyone on your gift list, joy will spread when they take one bite of a delicious mouthwatering chocolate chip or white chunk macadamia cookie!  Perfect for holiday office parties, business thank you gifts, and even your neighbors down the street, each holiday themed gift is sure to deliver big smiles!

If your gift is being delivered to an office setting you will want to send a cookie gift that is more business appropriate and more holiday themed rather than a gift that has "Merry Christmas" across the top.    For example, our Mrs. Fields Holiday Cookie Tin is the perfect option for office and business settings that everyone will love to share.  From beautiful gift towers to jolly Santa cookie totes, we have the perfect cookie holiday gift to suit all of your recipients.

This is one Valentine gift that they are sure to treasure for a long time.

Puppy Love

The perfect time to show someone that you truly care about them is on Valentine’s Day. Romance, goofy gifts, laughter, love, wine, and chocolates.

This is just one of those days that you can really show the romance, or friendship, in both of your lives.

An amusing gift to send out this year is our Valentine Puppy Gift Box. This gift has an adorable Valentine plush puppy that carries a meaningful message to the recipient, and a wooden “love” crate filled with an assortment of melt in your mouth Ghirardelli chocolates.

Brownie Lover on Halloween

A friend of mine had decided to make brownies when she was invited to a pot-luck party one year. She is not a good cook and just to be on the safe side she followed the recipe exactly, or so she thought. All of our friends were there with their special dishes, having fun and dancing.
At that moment, someone had grabbed one of her “delicious” brownies and took a giant bite out of it. The next thing everyone knew she was running for a glass of punch. It turns out my friend had accidentally forgot to put in the sugar, so you can imagine how that turned out.
I love brownies, and so does my friend, so I had told her about the Halloween Brownies Gift Box from Pro-gift-baskets.com. She tried them out and told me that next time she goes to a pot-luck party; she is going to try to obtain a box

Halloween Gifts

Growing up in a little town was great. My siblings and I would dress up in our costumes and go house to house and collect all the candy that we could get our hands on. Then, we would go home and count them all out to see who had the most. I remember we use to trade and make deals with the candy. Sometimes we would even play games and the winner would take all the candy, but in the end share with each other.

Now, of course, we are grown up and don’t see each other as often. I always try and send them a little something in the mail. Just to let them know that I am thinking of them at this time of year.

At Pro-gift-baskets.com we have a wide selection of Halloween gifts, like the Halloween Candy Boo Bag, or the Mrs. Fields® Halloween Bear Basket. The stuffed animals that come with these gifts are so adorable. They will also make sure that the recipient, be it a child, grandchild, friend, or co-worker, will remember you and all the times that you have shared. The yummy treats inside won’t hurt either.

The Giant Spooky Cookies

When I was younger Halloween was one of my favorite times of year. You could be anything you wanted, and the most exciting part for any youngster is all the candy, cookies, and popcorn balls they will receive. The treat I remember the most is the giant cookies that my mom use to make. Here at Pro-Gift-Baskets.com we carry two different types of giant cookies the Giant Halloween Fortune Cookies and the Halloween Pumpkin Cookie Gift. Both of which will satisfy any sweet tooth and give your kids lasting memories for years to come.

Trick or Treating

Trick or treating is a custom that has been passed down through the centuries. It was started as a way to keep evil spirits at bay. Over the years the tradition has evolved and become more mainstreamed.

During the ninth century people during droughts and times of disease out break, people would wear masks over their mouths. They believed that doing this would scare off evil spirits. During this time there was another tradition in which beggars would go from house to house and get soul cakes or money, for every soul cake received they would pray for the dead.

In today’s society millions of children go out to collect their treats and of course some go out to do their tricks. In the traditions of the past, Pro-Gift-Baskets.com has a great variety of Halloween goodies to take care of your ghouls or goblins. So, take pleasure in this upcoming holiday with a Happy Halloween Gift Box. It is sure to be treasured, at least until the candy is gone!

Fishing-The Honored Past Time

I still remember the first time I ever went fishing with my own fishing pole. It was one of those Snoopy rod and reels; I received it on my sixth birthday. We went to a little fishing hole in California, on the Air Force base we lived on. My dad, brother, and I set up on the bank.I was the first person to catch a fish, out of all the fishing trips that I have had since then this was the best.

It has been 24 years since that trip now I have kids of my own. Most of them enjoy fishing with me and hearing the stories of fishing trips of the past. I know that I enjoy it when I receive gifts of the fishing nature, especially when they are funny. We have a great one for you the Fisherman's Gift Basket.
