A Holiday To Celebrate Colorado Christmas

colorado christmas gift basketAs a true Coloradoan, I have had my share of snowy Christmases. I often feel bad for people who have never experienced the beauty of snow falling outside a well lit window with glimmering lights reflecting off the white ground. Christmas decorations always seem more suitable when laid upon a snowy white setting. Though snow is not necessary to have a happy Christmas, good food is a necessity! A few of my favorite Christmas goodies are hot cocoa, toffee and caramels, cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, popcorn, peppermint candies, cheese and crackers, hot coffee, and baked goods. The best thing about all of these treats is that even if I don’t have the free time to prepare them myself, there are many of exceptional Colorado businesses which make all these Christmas treats not far from where I live. When I need a pick me up to put me in the Christmas spirit or a quick gift to take with me to a Christmas party, mail to my friends and family overseas, or need a jolly table topper for my Christmas table, I sign on to www.basketsbyrita.com and order their Colorado Christmas Basket.

Christmas embellishments always seem more appropriate when set before a snowy white backdrop. While snow is not essential to have a happy Christmas, fine food is a must! Several of my favorite Christmas treats are hot cocoa, toffee and caramels, cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, caramel corn, candy canes, cheese and crackers, hot coffee, and brownies. The best thing about all of these treats is that even if I don’t have the time to prepare them myself, there are many of very good Colorado businesses which make all these Christmas treats not far from where I reside. When I need a pick me up to put me in the Christmas mood or a quick present to bring with me to a Christmas party, send to my friends and family out of state, or want a jolly table topper for my Christmas table, I go to www.basketsbyrita.com and order their Colorado Christmas Basket.

At home spa treatment

A long week of work and classes leaves me ready to sit back and let go when the weekend comes. But we all know that the possibility of me having a weekend full of spa like services and peace and quiet is scarcely likely. Though I’m not working I generally wind up with a number of errands that’s stacked up over the course of the week, a house to clean, and a lot of other miscellaneous projects that slip themselves into my life somehow. Where I might be able to talk someone into giving me a five minute back rub, I doubt I’ll have time for a facial and a bubble bath. In this world where we live such hectic lives, it is close to impossible to slip away for an hour or two let alone a whole day to just leave our crazy lives and catch a bit ‘me’ time. Where I can possibly add in a trip to the tanning salon or a waxing appointment once a month, it’s never enough to help me feel like I’ve really pampered myself. When an occasion or a birthday comes along and someone asks me what I want, the first thing that comes to mind is “gift cards” or “a new pair of scissors.” Although these may be sensible gifts, they are essentials and purchasing these necessities doesn’t require much thought. A present should be a thing you want, not a thing you need. Occasionally all you need in order to justify a spa day is a loved one’s assistance or approval. A present should encourage you to take care of yourself, not help you run yourself further into the ground. Although I can say I wouldn’t have much free time to schedule a spa appointment even if I was given a gift card, I have a few home remedies that will do the trick almost as well. When I think a friend has been working too hard and needs a break, I buy them a pamper basket from Baskets By Rita to tell them to take some time for their self. Baskets By Rita packs their baskets full of high quality spa products for an all inclusive, at home full body treatment. The Retreat Relaxing Gift Basket is a great example of the types of products Baskets By Rita sells. Do you want to say thank you? This mini purse thank you gift comes in assorted colors and is wrapped in cello then tied with a bow and topped with a small metallic thank you balloon. A perfect way to say thank you to all the woman in your life. Great for dministrative Professional's Day and Mother's day! Send a relaxing retreat basket filled with spa quality Body wash, bath gel, a scented sachet, body scrub, two scented lotions, a nylon sponge, cooling leg gel, two votive candles with a glass holder and a foot and nail care kit. . A bath and body gift basket is the perfect gift basket for any woman. If you know someone who could use some pampering and needs a reason to take some time for their self, send them a Baskets By Rita spa basket to remind them they’re worth a little extra special care.
