SNESA Silent Auction

Everyone knows by now how much we just love animals here at Little Gift Basket Boutique, and I personally love animals just as much as I enjoy gift baskets!  A few weeks ago I was contacted by the Southern New England Saddlebred Association; they were looking for donations for their first annual silent auction.  After reviewing the information, I thought to myself, "how perfect and appropriate would this be, we can donate our horse gift baskets to this great cause!".  So...we are very excited to announce that we have taken part by donating two of our unique horse gift baskets to help SNESA raise money for their association.

 

Displayed below is one of our unique and adorable horse gift baskets, and it's ready for you to bid on today.  So don't delay!

 

Giddy Up! Gift Basket

 

 

Go here and do it now!  http://www.snesasaddlebred.com/silent-auction.html.  There are also plenty of other wonderful items to bid on.  The silent auction runs until April 13, 2013 and closes at 6pm EST.  All proceeds benefit the SNESA.  Get your bid in today and you could be the lucky winner of our Giddy Up Horse Themed Gift Basket!

 

In case you are all wondering what SNESA is; wonder no more, here is a brief description:

 

The goal of the Southern New England Saddlebred Association is to promote the American Saddlebred breed.
SNESA supports all Saddlebred and Half-Saddlebred owners and horses in the Saddleseat, Huntseat, Western, and Driving divisions as well as offering an open Pleasure Division for any breed being ridden in the Saddleseat discipline.  We will participate in breed demos, clinics, and various programs of interest offered throughout the New England Area.

After browsing through their Silent Auction page, stop by their Thank You page and check out their shout out to us (http://www.snesasaddlebred.com/thank-you.html)!  We are pleased to be a part of their great cause and hope to continue working with SNESA in the future.

Fruit or Fruit & Gourmet Cookies? Who Decides?

It's time to start reviving spring and all the wonderful things that remind us of spring time.  I know, I know, it's not officially spring ~ YET!  But why wait?  Why not get started early?  It's time to toss winter behind us, even if the snow is still falling for many of you!  

What reminds you of spring?  Is it the flowers?  The rain showers?  The warmer weather?  The outdoorsy feeling you begin to itch for?  I'm guilty of all these things but who couldn't be, really? Some other things that remind me of spring (and definitely summer) are fruits...I don't know about you, but I love fruit that's perfectly ripe and perfectly mouthwatering.  So look below as you say out loud: premium juicy fruits ~ these are fruits that make us wonder why we don't eat more of them!  

We (Little Gift Basket Boutique, in case you forgot ~ he, he ~) have some pretty amazing (and unique, don't forget unique ~smile~) fruit gift baskets, and fruit gift baskets that include gourmet wholesome cookies and other gourmet items.  Like the rest of our gift basket selection, our fruit gift baskets, fruit gift boxes and fruit gift towers are only designed and assembled with premium fruits and premium gourmet snack items.  You'll want more once you have one bite!

These are just a small sampling of the fruit gift baskets that we offer at www.littlegiftbasketboutique.com.  We ship in the United States and Canada.  Please check out our shipping policy and shipping information for details and most certainly contact us if you still have questions!  You can contact us ~ chat with us ~ call us

Hug A Small Business Owner

Ever know anyone who owned their own business?  Did they ever talk about the rewards even though it's hard work and often tough to find family time?  I grew up around family and family friends who owned their own businesses.  My grandfather was an entrepreneur who worked hard to provide for his family.  He was business partners with his brother-in-laws; they had several business ventures until they hit the most successful one!  It started as an idea to open a butcher shop, although the three brother-in-laws were successful in their launch of the butcher shop, it wasn't long before they sold it to open up their second venture, a bakery.  The bakery business was quite successful, although I remember both my grandmother and all her children complaining that my grandfather was never around, he worked long hours to ensure the business ran and it remained successful.  Not much changed, except much longer hours when they decided to sell the bakery business and open up a motel at the very end of Long Island, NY; Montauk Point...They built a motel and called it the Atlantic Terrace Motel and that was all they wrote; twenty-eight years later the brother-in-laws would retire at the ripe old age of 50!

My grandparents had friends that owned candy stores, drug stores, property management and other  retail ventures.  Their really good friends owned one of the candy stores and every month we used to travel into New York City from the Island to visit the candy store (actually, now that I'm an adult, it wasn't to visit the candy store, it was for my grandparents to visit with their friends!).  My brother and I were each allowed to pick one candy item.  From a very young age we were taught that even though we know people who own businesses, we support them by buying from them and not taking anything they offer.  So, although my grandfather's friend insisted that we have our one piece of candy for free, my grandfather more firmly insisted that he pay him for the candy.  I don't recall my grandfather ever losing (wink).

I guess the point here is that if you know someone who owns a business, support them in any way you can.  Even if it's not in monetary form, you can still: share a post, refer a friend or just simply spread the word.  Every little bit helps us become more successful!  If you don't know someone who owns a business, simply give back by finding something you can purchase from a local small business owner.  They'll truly appreciate your business and I bet you receive great customer service!

That's my story for today.  After you've finished reading this, take action and find a way to virtually Hug a small business owner today!  You can start here!
