Eco friendly choices around the holiday

Let’s consider behaviors to be green for the holiday this season. Everyone is  to get on the band wagon of going green. Not only is it good for the economy but it is also beneficial for the pocket book. In the year of economic downturn and this eco friendly mind set let’s brainstorm various ways to be green and save money.


Buy a live tree or even a artificial Christmas tree. Live trees can be plant and enjoyed for years. If you don’t have a yard for planting one then get an artificial one you can use over and over again.


If you put up Christmas lights purchase led lights if you have the funds . If not, then be sure to have your lights on a timer and only run them from sunset until you go to bed. No need lighting up the nighttime when no one is out to enjoy them.


Wrap your presents it recycled paper and decorate them with old ribbon and sparkles. You can also do what we have done for a long time, and wrap your gifts in cloth bags that can used year after year. The drawback of these bags is that they are easy to open so someone could peek if they actually wanted to.


Purchase greeting card printed on recycled paper.  You could even forgo the snail mail this year and send e-card as a substitute.

Avoid shopping at malls this year. Driving all over town trying to find the perfect gift wastes valuable time and money. You can shopping on line and even buy from local companies in the process. Mull over gift that you feel confident they will use, need and enjoy. Everyone enjoys high quality food and everyone has to eat so think about giving a gourmet food gift. Now take this one step further and decide on a gourmet food gift that comes in an eco-friendly shopping bag. These awesome bags come in reusable nylon or 100% recycled reusable. The nylon bag becomes a little rolls for easy convenient carrying in your car.  The 100% recycled bag doesn’t use any new materials to construct. They are both practical choices. I found that Basketsbyrita offers Eco Friendly Gourmet Holiday Gift Bag and an Eco-Friendly Colorado Holiday Gift.  Your holiday shopping just got eco-friendly since you shopped on line, got something useful, did something that was good for the environment and your recipient will love it. Done! Happy Holidays.

Chocolate and wine for holiday gift giving

Christmas Holiday Gift Baskets what a mouth full
Christmas is a very trendy time of year for many businesses to give presents. Many businesses follow, what I believe, is a very smart path by avoiding anything that has religious implications. That means that the gifts they give will not include the words Christmas or will they use the words Happy Christmas in their card. A company wants to give a gift that will be remembered and appreciated.  This time of year is so emotionally charged with the feeling of another year passed by and reflection on the year as a whole. There is also optimism about the coming year too. The corporate holiday gift is an important method for companies to say thank you for your business and along with that is the expectation there will be a feeling of loyalty for repeated business.  A Chocolate Christmas gift basket is an brilliant choice for a business.  A chocolate Holiday gift basket is great since everyone enjoys tasty food. However, take your time and choose shrewdly many gift baskets are quickly put together and contain foods that you can get in any grocery store. You want the presentation to be stunning and the food to taste fantastic. Otherwise the gift basket, which is a representation of your business, will create a feeling of quick dismissive. Giving gifts automatically creates a kind of social obligation to want to do something for the person.
chocolate christmas gift basket
Business often times give holiday wine gift baskets and beer basket at the holidays. I would encourage doing that only if you know the client well and you are confident that the alcohol will be esteemed. Corporate holiday gifts come in all sizes and themes so corporate gifts can be selectedchosen to suggest the import ants of the recipient. This conclusion might also be driven by the size of the group the gift basket is intended for. It often times is more gainful to gift a single gift to the team instead of one small one for each person.  The choice is yours.

Bar Exam Gifts Don't Include Frogs

Usually the year starts out on a high note,nearly have their resolutions either writtenon paper or at least in their heads. This time of reflection on the past year gives us a perception of what we would like to transform going forward. Change is always excellent but hard to embrace and to bring about. As the employee charge withperks for the employees I find it challenging to pick the right gifts that consist of the correct product for the right event that will please the majority.  We all know that nothing is just the thing so it goes with gifts. I call it one size fits all which really means some will love and others will be mildly impressed. I have learn that there are people out there more apt to make these design choices than I am. I have been working with Basketsbyrita.com for many years now and they are completely trustworthy. stress relief gift basket

They write the following:

Many companies employ over worked over stressed employees that they count on to lead the company through these tough times. These employees are the future successors that are working to finish projects, pass the bar exam or perhaps taking on other duties where others have been laid off. These folks need a little TLC from time to time. If they are the new lawyer preparing for the bar exam send them a stress relief gift basket or survival gift basket the week prior to the exam along with a note stating ‘hang in there we are rooting for you’. If it a project in it’s final stages send the survival basket to their home to say “we appreciate all your extra efforts to keep the project on schedule.

The advantage this gift and message send far out way the dollars spent on these gifts. Statistics show that 60% of employees leave a firm because they did not feel valued.  Having working in HR for a large corporation I recognize what it takes to keep employees fulfilled. Most of all I have learned that relationships are critical to the success of any firm. http://www.basketsbyrita.com/Care-Packages_c_31.html

Cheese and Fruit Paired for Success

Boy could you go on for indefinitely about cheese. The French believe that the more stinky the better the cheese. Business people think that to hold on you need to realize that your cheese might get moved. Kids grew up with the stinky cheese man. Farmers know that if they can't sell their milk to a grade A dairy they can always sell it as grade B and it will be made into cheese. Wow that is a lot of Discussion about cheese without really saying anything. Cheese comes in so many types it is hard to keep up. I know that there are people that are as snooty about cheese as there are about wine. I have become quite fond of cheese over the years. I even have learned to love goat cheese. Basketsbyrita's recent task is to seek out great cheese that is shelf stable so we can put it for you in a gift basket. fruit and cheese gift basket

Basketsbyrita offers a cheese basket, a fruit and cheese gift basket, a wine and cheese basket and of course gourmet baskets which all have cheese in them. We provide everything from a smoked pepper cheese to a smooth mild Havarti cheese. The possibilities are endless so we are working hard to offer them all. Our recent offering is a beer cheese for our beer gift baskets.

So don't let the stinky cheese man steel your cheese and if he moves it stay at it until you find it and cut it share with your farmer friends okay!

A Man's Perspective on Valentine's Day

Everyone knows that Valentine’s Day is the time to convey your love to your husband.  The problem is that it can be really quite hard for you ladies to discern what to purchase for your man. You could always get something sexy for yourself and use this as your gift to him, but for some couples this just won’t work.  Flowers are the conventional gifts, but frankly, ladies like these gifts more than your man does.  You could get him an a new TV, but then you might not won't hear a word from him for the next two weeks. So, what’s a girl to do? Let beer be the answer!

valentine beer tub gift
I’m fairly confident he will think it’s a great gift. Now, don’t just go purchase a six-pack of any ordinary beer and drop it on his lap; only other guys can be so insensitive. Be creative,fire up your computer and look up basketsbyrita.com and order a Valentine beer tub gift to be delivered to his work in Colorado.  This will cost a little more than a six pack, but it will be SO worth it.  Think about his shock when the courier shows up (or FedEx package) with a beer tub full of well known microbrews and appropriate snacks.  Be certain to have the enclosure card says something like “I thought you’d love this almost as much as me.  See you tonight!  Love.”  The office staff will be flipping over this gift.  The women will all be saying “oh, how considerate” and the guys will be wondering what embarrassing thing their spouse/girl friend got them.  You can be sure the guys will be thinking “Oh man, how amazing!”  We can even put a few extra chocolates in the tub that he can share with you.  If he’s really a awesome guy, he’ll share the beer with you.  You won’t give him a guilt trip if he doesn’t will you?
