One of my favorite places to shop online is a site that features unique artisans from around the world. Novica is in association with National Geographic and hopes to create a bridge between you and the many talented artisans across the globe. They have so many great items that my biggest problem is always what I want to buy next.

The girls all got some Sterling Silver Jewelry for Christmas from a talented jewelry maker that lives in Thailand.

“The great folks at Novica supplied me with a gift card, the gift card for this giveaway along with some of the information in this post. All opinions are my own though. I really LOVE Novica, what they stand for and believe in. Ok, so I guess I love what they sit for too because you can’t be left standing all the time, if you were you would get spaghetti legs and probably fall over at some point.”

Christmas is quickly coming. I mean really quickly! This year has just flown by and I am sitting here wondering where I was cause I certainly wasn’t on one of the wings. I feel like it should still be mid-summer and we should be celebrating the 4th of July. I have got to start getting some of my shopping done. One of the places I love to go online is CSN Stores. They have over 200 online stores where you can find everything from stylish furniture, to a leather briefcase, or great cookware! They make it really easy to take advantage of one-stop shopping since they have something to please everyone on your list. Check it out and stay tuned to see what I come up with.

Isn’t that just a fun word to say? And if you say it enough in different voices. And use different facial expressions every time you say it…your kids just might come close to having you committed.

Cookbook Winner:  Chelsea

Bazooka Candy Winner: Kerrie

Go check your email for verification and instructions on how to claim your prize. I sent them out at 4 o’clock this morning when I woke up and couldn’t go back to sleep. I was worried the men with white jackets were on their way because I have said BAA-Zooo-KA a few too many times over the past week.

Ok, here’s a little informal poll: Who has started their Christmas shopping? Whether it’s baby’s first Christmas ornaments or a pair of socks it doesn’t matter just wondering who has started already. You can elaborate or just holler Yay or Nay.

Father’s Day Gift Basket

Guest post written by Lynne Saunders.

I had no idea what to get my dad this Father’s Day, so I decided to browse around for ideas on the Internet. I used my wildblue satellite internet to surf the web for unique ideas for my dad. I found gift baskets at a store online and figured that would be a great idea seeing as I lived so far away from him.

I got him a wild blue internet connection last year, so I wanted to change it up a bit this year. My dad loves to barbecue so I purchased a gift basket that had high quality grilling tools and sauces. I also purchased a meat package so that he could have something to cook on Father’s Day. The grill package comes with a case for all of the utensils, salt and pepper shakers, rubs for ribs and chicken and sauces. There is also a nice tray included for taking raw meat to the grill from the fridge and a grilling mitt. I loved this package and thought it would be perfect for my dad.

The meat package I purchased had sausage, hamburgers, sirloins and ribeye steaks. This was a great assortment for him and my mother. There was enough meat for them to enjoy a whole week worth of meals or one big party. Generally I am with my dad for Father’s Day, so I wanted to purchase something for him to enjoy a lot even though I wouldn’t be with him this year.
