Send a Quick Greeting to Someone You Know Regifting Unwanted Gifts
![]() Re-gifting can be a controversial topic and one that can get pretty emotional if things unintentionally go wrong.
Passing that present forward is a perfectly acceptable thing to do but there are definitely a few distinct etiquette rules that come along with regifting an unwanted item. This is one situation that needs to be done right...Regifting Unwanted Presents. Holiday Gift Mistakes You Don't Want to Make
![]() Most of us have received a present we wished we hadn't and tucking it right back into its wrapping paper is never an option. A bad gift can be very disappointing.
A mistake made while gifting isn't always easily forgiven. Unfortunately that glaringly obvious mistake is there the moment the parcel is unwrapped. No amount of pretty wrapping paper can make these gifts okay...Mistakes You Don't Want to Make Halloween: A Holiday of Ghosts, Zombies, and Ghouls
![]() For Halloween expect to see spooky stuff out there intentionally designed to scare the heck out of you. Ghosts, ghouls, skeletons, zombies or any other such item of fright are commonplace. Jack-o-lanterns and anything orange or black in colour are symbolic of this fall celebration.
All Hallows Eve Day or All Saints Day is the time when spirits might once again roam the Earth in search of a means of remaining in human form. For most children though this is a day to run from house to house in search of candy and other sweet treats. The good news that offsets all the spookiness of this day is that you can definitely expect to see a lot of goodies out there and most largely free for the taking. It is the perfect opportunity to give or receive sweet treats. During this very special holiday pumpkin pie, tarts, and ghoulish cookies make for a frightfully friendly gift at this time of year. Thanksgiving: A Time to Gift Kindness to Our Fellowman
![]() Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks for all the blessings of life. Feasts of thanks with family and friends are very likely during this time and it is often traditional to bring a gift of food or wine to present to your host or hostess when attending one of these gatherings.
At Thanksgiving expect to receive gifts of food. Fruit baskets, cheese plates, cookies and cake. These are symbolic offerings of friendship from the company who appear at your door. Pumpkins, Pilgrims, turkeys and the colour orange are all symbols of this very special season and may be represented within the gifts that you give or receive throughout the harvest season. Christmas is Family Friends and Good Cheer
![]() Candy canes, jingle bells, reindeer, snowmen, Santa, mistletoe, stockings, and holly jolly ho ho ho abound at this time of year. The ultimate season of giving is Christmas.
Visiting friends and relatives, hugs, sweet treats, shared gifts and a lot of love. Red, white, and green candies, candles, and decorations of every size shape and colour seem to appear out of nowhere. Christmas is the time of year when gifts are given and received in the loving spirit of this tinsel filled holiday. Food gifted with a seasonal twist are ideal for this holiday season. Because Love has Everything to do With it ![]() When February 14th rolls around each year a certain little winged fellow comes flying to shoot small love laden arrows into the hearts of unsuspecting passerby.
You could be the one he is aiming at. Born of Venus his heart is filled with a desire for love but his arrows carry both love laden as well as leaden tips. Yes you can duck or you can run but chances are that if Cupid is set on getting your heart then he will. There is no where that you can hide. He is a determined little guy and one heck of a good shot. No one is immune to cupid's spell so pull out the flowers and sweet chocolate candy hearts. It is Valentine's Day and it is all about love. Saint Patrick's Day is March 17th
![]() Pop on your green. For the Irish St. Patrick's day holiday you may find a tiny leprechaun, four leaf clover pin, a bright green sweater, or a "pot of gold" bowl filled with chocolate coins showing up on your doorstep.
If it is green or comes in the form of a good luck charm then it will likely be representative of Saint Patrick's Day. For this holiday you may find yourself being treated to a pint of green ale, chowing down on green cookies or candies, or being presented with any array of green hats, scarves, or other green clothing. Perhaps even receiving a shamrock bouquet? If you are giving gifts on this day then find a one that is green and pass on a wee little smidge of that Irish luck to someone you know. March 20th is the First Day of Spring
A Spring Holiday that is a Time of Rebirth and New Life
![]() Young lambs are an early religious symbol of the Easter holiday. Within the theme of the rebirth of spring baby chicks, bunnies, and other young creatures also nestled into this spring holiday theme.
Eggs have long been a symbol of new beginnings so that explains their appearance on this holiday and it is the very fertile nature of the fuzzy little bunny rabbit that earned this creature its traditional honoring within this holiday. Baby animals have just naturally come to represent Easter as much as bunnies and eggs have. Expect any of these to be presented as plush or chocolate gifts around this time of year. For the Easter weekend expect presents of cuddly plush baby chickens, bunnies, or lambs of every size, shape, and color. Eggs are another popular item and come in all sizes, colors, and types most cleverly hidden by the Easter rabbit who only appears around this very special time of year. Bunnies come in richly smooth chocolate images, as candy dishes, mugs, plates, figurines, and toys, and they are the perfect gift item for this very special time of year. Earth Day is April 22
![]() Earth day is April 22nd a day of environmental awareness and action and the perfect day to give our planet a great big hug. It is after all the only planet nice enough to let us live on it.
For Earth day make a plan to go a little greener. Avoid products packaged in plastic, use cloth grocery bags, compost, reduce, reuse, and recycle. Walk to work. Write your local government to let them know that you want cleaner energy initiatives. Go green and plant a tree today. Mother's Day is the Second Sunday in May
