So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Deciding On Mothers Day Chocolate And Other Gift Ideas

By Maryanne Goff


When you stop to consider it, mothers day only happens once every year. Most people want to show their mom how much they have meant to them over the years. As the time gets closer and closer and you are devising your mother's day strategy involving a new pet cat, red roses and homemade peach cobbler, keep in mind often the smallest things are the most meaningful. While the traditional gift seems to be the classic mothers day chocolate, there are other gifts to look at giving as well. Sometimes these small gifts can mean more and last longer than a store bought candy.

Moms around the planet love spending time outside in their gardens. Whether they raise flowers or some vegetables for the dinner table it is a hobby common with most mothers. Go to the local home improvement store and buy some gardening tools for her to use. This way she should be ready to finish the year and be set for next year too.

Most moms enjoy cooking, I mean really enjoy cooking. They cook for their families and friends, for special occasions or just to eat. Some mothers just enjoy the challenge of trying out something new and exciting. With this in mind, cookware of almost all types always make a great gift idea.

Lets face facts, most moms need to get away every now and then. Absence makes the beating heart grow fond after all. Whether it is a quick trip to see some old friends and family members or a cruise at sea over a week on a ship, this is a gift idea every mother likes.

At first glance it may sound lame however, gift cards often can work out as great gifts as well. With more and more moms getting into the business world, gift cards for fashion accessories are a great idea. It also takes the stress out of spending so much time shopping for the gift idea that is just right. Who knows what new hat, or glasses looks best on mom, than mom.

Some mothers as they start getting up there in age like to relax in their rocking chair, sitting on the porch reading about different new and exciting discoveries. Some like keeping up with different world events. Some just want to see what is playing on TV. Magazine subscriptions is a positive way to go, plus they generally last all year.

With all the new studies showing how important it is to be fit and trim to live longer, nothing says thanks mom like some new exercise equipment. It does not have to be expensive or a whole workout center. Something as simple as an exercise bike could add years to your mom's life.

Many moms have lived long and healthy lives. Nothing holds the importance to them like the baby they had inside them for nine long months, even after they grown up. If you do resolve to get mothers day chocolate, always remember she will always love you just the same.
