My Review/Thoughts~

O.K., This is where I make a confession. I am post menopausal. I have no other option but to keep our home at….freezing because of my hot flashes. I feel so bad for my husband every time I look at Eric in long sleeves and pants, freezing. This is why I was thrilled to include the Ozeri Brezza III Dual Oscillating 10″ High Velocity Desk Fan in my HGG18 and also my home. I am so very much in love with this fan. I not only use it on my desk but I use it at bedtime in the bedroom, in the living room, outside when the temp sores to ultra high. This fan almost never leaves my side or front. If you have that hard to buy for person on your gift list, I am sure that they would love the Ozeri Brezza III Dual Oscillating 10″ High Velocity Desk Fan.

I give the Ozeri Brezza III Dual Oscillating 10″ High Velocity Desk Fan my highest recommendation and my thumbs up. You can go HERE to buy one for your very own or that person on your gift list that has everything in your opinion.

My Review/Thoughts~

I was over the moon just knowing that this was even possible to do for a cat as we have wondered for the past 10 years what really made our 1 cat tick(so to say). Find out what your cat’s DNA can tell you about their ancestry and ultimately their health and habits from Basepaws. Harley, Our 1 cat was adopted through a very reputable catch-spay/neuter/release organization. This will have been the 5th cat we have adopted them over the years. Harley was born in the wild and caught together with her Mother and siblings. The one thing about Harley is that she has no common sense. She will do something and fall but will not learn and do it over and over again. We are convinced that she has ADHD and possibly early signs of dementia. If getting Harly’s DNA tested, Maybe we can find out some of her genetics that might explain her. We love her to death and she is part of our family. If you have cats or know of someone on your gift list who has cats-This would make the perfect Holiday gift for them. You can order your Basepaws kit by going HERE.

My Review/Thoughts~

I am so in love with Ball Holiday Keepsake Jars. I know there are other companies that make them but I only want the best and that is Ball. This Holiday season Ball has come out with something that in my opinion is genius. The mason jar has a snowflake on one side and the word Ball on the other. The first thing that comes to mind are DIY projects. There are so many things you can do with these mason jars such as:

  • Putting a candle in the bottom and using it as a Lumiere
  • Inserting your ingredients in the jar for gifts in a jar
  • Painting the jar the color of your choice
  • stinging lights and hanging them in your backyard or deck
  • Stenciling holiday characters or animals and fill with herbs for a beautiful centerpiece
  • Makes an awesome piggy bank or change holder
  • Salt and Pepper holders
  • A flower holder

I feel that the uses for the Ball Snowflake Mason Jars are endless. It is up to your imagination on what you can do with these. I am going to be doing several DIY posts after the first of the year that I know will new and unique. You need to decorate your home with the Ball Snowflake Mason Jars.

I give the Ball Snowflake Mason Jars my highest Recommendation and my thumbs up. You owe it to yourself to buy some of these by going HERE.

My Thoughts/Review and my dogs thoughts too~

Making sure my dogs have toys to play with is 2 fold in my opinion. 1) They don’t chew on things they are not supposed to and 2) They have so much fun. It is so cute to watch them. They can destroy a toy in minutes but that is why I try to buy them toys that can withstand their roughhousing. goDog chew toys are the ones you need to buy. I love how durable the toys are and how well made they are. My husband said he do without the squeaking but I feel that is part of the satisfaction I get when I see them wanting to play with a toy. I usually show you a personal picture of the review item in use but I did let them play with the goDog  Santa Dragon Chew Toy for a little bit but I forgot to snap a picture and I want to save it for christmas for them. I wish you could of seen my lab acting like me was a puppy playing with it.

I give the goDog  Santa Dragon Chew Toy my highest recommendation and my thumbs up. You can go HERE to buy some for yourself or that special puppy friend on your gift list.

Cookies By Design Christmas Gift Baskets And Gift Trays #Review #HHG18 @cookiesbydesign

2018 Holiday Gift Guide, Reviews · 

I received the below complimentary product either for free or a discounted price for the purpose of this post. All opinions and thoughts are 100% my own.

About The Product/Company~

Cookies by Design, a woman owned business, was founded in 1983 by Gwen Willhite. Gwen had the idea of making a gift suitable for not only women, but men as well; a gift that he would be excited to receive at his workplace. So she combined two traditional gifts of flowers and sweets and created a deliciously clever concept: the cookie bouquet. Her edible bouquets of custom-shaped and hand-decorated sugar and cinnamon brown sugar cookies on sticks were cleverly arranged in baskets as tasteful gifts for any holiday or occasion. These impressive gifts were instant hits among men and women alike especially because the product tasted as good as it looked and Gwen’s budding enterprise soon outgrew her own home kitchen.

The newly successful entrepreneur moved to a location in nearby, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Then in 1986 when things really picked up, Gwen moved her business to Dallas, Texas. After the Dallas business was established, Gwen turned her attention to the numerous requests from others wishing to start their own Cookie Bouquet franchise. The first franchised Cookie Bouquet location opened in 1987 and the momentum has been growing ever since. To better reflect all of the creative, unique and customized products sold, Cookie Bouquet locations changed their names to “Cookies by Design” and launched the cookiesbydesign.com website to capitalize on the growing ecommerce market.

Holiday Gift Baskets

The holiday season is here! The perfect way to celebrate is to treat your family and friends to holiday gift baskets filled with fresh baked cookies and treats. With a variety of options to choose from, there is a special gift for everyone on your list and gift basket delivery is available right to their doorstep. Who wouldn’t love to receive fresh baked, hand crafted Christmas cookies, gourmet cookies, brownies or truffles?

Christmas Cookies

The holidays wouldn’t be complete without tasty fresh baked, hand decorated Christmas cookies. If you haven’t the time to roll the dough, cut out, bake and decorate the cookies yourself, don’t’ worry we have you covered. We take pride in creating hand decorated Christmas cookies just like you would in your kitchen and we will deliver them right to your doorstep in time for the holiday festivities.

My Reviews/Thoughts~

Who doesn’t love to receive a gift of food especially if they are cookies. I know in my home that is our favorite thing to receive. Everyone loves a good cookie and you are not being honest if you say you don’t. I was so very happy that I found Cookies By Design as I received a beautiful Christmas Basket and a Christmas Cookie Tray. Along with Christmas cookies in the basket were gourmet cookies that I of course taste tested each and every one of them. No judging please. They were the best. In the Christmas Cookie Tray were Holiday shapes such as candy canes, Christmas trees, snowmen and ginger bread men. They are so very helpful. You owe it to yourself and your gift recipient to send them something delicious and that is something from Cookies By Design.

I highly recommend Cookies By Design and give them my thumbs up. You can go Here to order one for your very own or to give as a gift. You will love it~
