I’m going to try to get all my holiday shopping done online

by

This year I think that I might try to do most of my holiday shopping online. I really don’t like shopping in crowded malls in November and December. Do you?

One of the sites that I hope to use when shopping is CouponChief. They have deals and coupon codes listed for thousands of online stores. If I’m able to find stores that ship to my area (Canada) I’ll barely have to walk into a department store.

There are a number of Linens and things coupon codes, as well Pottery Barn deals and I know I can get some fantastic gifts for my relatives at those stores.

With the thousands of coupons listed at Couponchief I should be able to get gifts for everyone on my list or at least I hope that I will! If you’re going to be doing some of your holiday shopping online don’t forget to check out Couponchief too.





Time flies by

Do you remember Ziggy comics? I thought this was a comic strip from the distant past, but it looks like the comics are still being published as I found them online while searching for the term “Ziggy comics”.

I was just thinking about a small flip book that my sister gave me when I was a kid. It was of course a Ziggy comic and the theme of the booklet was ” I don’t know why I love you like I do” or something to that effect. I loved that book and I still have it somewhere in one of my drawers.

The reason I’m thinking about the book today is because the other night I got a message from a book publisher about a new children’s book that’s theme is Love. They’ll be sending me the book to look over sometime soon. The information that I got on the book reminded me of how that cute little booklet that my sister gave me as a present made me feel. Now I’m hoping that I love this new book just as much.

I was thinking that since my niece is due to have her first baby in February I might give her this new book as a gift. Well, I’d give it to her as a gift for her baby of course! It was the first thing I thought of when I knew I’d be getting the book to look over. Perhaps her child will love that book and treasure it as much as I did my little Ziggy comic booklet.

I can’t believe that my niece is even old enough to have a baby. It doesn’t seem like it was so long ago that I was just a kid myself. My niece was born when I was only 12 years old so it’s almost like I grew up with her. Geez it doesn’t even seem like it was that long ago that I got first communion invitations for her and her she is all grown up already.

Time certainly does go by quickly doesn’t it!

The Amazing Wine club delivers premium wines each month to members

by

In the last few years my husband and I have really started to enjoy wine. Not that we drink wine all that often, but we’ve developed a new appreciation for it.

I hate to say this, but when we first started seeing each other, if we drank wine, the only wine we’d try were white wines! We just didn’t enjoy red wine. At least we had that in common. It was a good friend and neighbor that opened our eyes and I guess you could say taste buds to the delicacies of a good red wine. It’s possible that we drink more red wine these days than white!

As I said we don’t drink a lot of wine, but I’ve considered joining a Wine club. If we were to join a wine club such as the Amazing Wine Club we’d receive featured wine selections each month.

Each of the featured wines are chosen after being taste tested by professionals. Only the wines that meet the Amazing Wine Club’s highest standards are chosen to be delivered to wine club members. These wines include hard to find and hand crafted wines from leading wine producing regions from all over the world.

Each month members of the Amazing Wine Club will receive two premium bottles of wine. I suppose the best part of the experience of being a member of this kind of club is getting to experience new wines – perhaps ones that you can’t find in your local stores or ones that you wouldn’t have thought to try on your own. Memberships can be purchased for as little as three months up to a year.

If club members really enjoy one of the wines that they’ve been sent they can purchase additional bottles at a club discount.

I’ll have to tell my husband about the Amazing Wine Club and see what he thinks. In the meantime though, a membership to the club might make a great gift for some of the wine lovers that we know.

Ah! I’m going to be a Great Aunt!

I recently learned that my oldest niece is going to have a baby! I’m so excited for her.

I was talking with my brother on the phone the other night and he was telling me all about his daughter and how she was doing and then added that his wife was really excited.

Huh? Sounds like my brother is too if you ask me.

We haven’t had a young baby in the family for quite a while. I’m still working on producing one myself … Ha now won’t that be funny if I ever do manage to get pregnant? My great niece or nephew will be older than their 2nd cousin? Sounds like the way I grew up since I was the last of a long line of kids and my parents had me when they were older.

I’ve already been thinking of what to get my niece and new niece or nephew when the baby arrives. Of course some plush animals are a must. Funny, I just remembered that when my niece was born the plush animal that I bought her turned out to be her favorite for many years. I wonder if I can do it again with her child?

The baby is due in February so I have some time to find just the right kind of gifts. Any ideas? I haven’t purchased anything for a new mother and new born for a while. What’s hot right now? Hmmm I wonder if she’d like one of those baby slings … hmmm
