No Fail Gifts: Artisanal Foods Make All the Difference, especially if it’s Robert Lambert Artisanal Foods
December 18, 2013 | 
Author One of the most common challenges of the holiday (read ‘gift-giving’) season is finding something for those people on your list that are difficult to buy for… Frequently, this is someone who can buy anything they want already. )(Heard Carson Daly talk about this today on his radio show!)
This category can also include grandparents and parents who delight in declaring, “I have everything I need”. Others who fall into this category relish their “mysterious” persona and seldom share personal interests, likes and dislikes (could be a colleague, employer or supervisor) Then there’s the hostess/host gift. Yes, you can bring wine. Yes, you can bring dessert. Yes, you can bring wine & dessert. Nothing wrong with that at all, but are these gifts for the host/hostess…or the guests?
Looking for Unusual Gifts? Check out the #RareCraftCollection by The Balvenie Distillery
When you look at this headline, you might be wondering what is a “rare craft collection”. The Balvenie have a slant on what it takes to create something with one’s own two hands and do it here in the USA – just like they do when they make scotch whiskey in Scotland.

Spending Time in the Kitchen: Looking Back –and Forward- at Cooking in 2013 & 2014
I am a new contributor to Foodie.com a food & drink/cooking network and this is a post sponsored by Foodie.com. If you know me at all, you know that I don’t do anything I don’t believe in nor do I do anything I don’t want to do. I just had the opportunity to noodle around their site and find that they had tons of recipes that resonated with me – and gave me inspiration to write this post — and even better to think about cooking new things!

Like there are 7 days in a week, given diverse weather conditions across the US and other parts of the world, it’s important to take care of your skin! Here are 7 different products that I know that should or could fit into your skincare or body care routine. This is not a “one size fits all” post– it’s just some ideas that you should keep in mind!!
1) Sunblock!
‘Sunblock is crucial year-round and at any time from just before sunrise til after the sun has vanished and the sky is that tawny blend of colors. What does that mean? It means no matter if you are a girl or a guy, it’s raining, snowing or the sun is out, you need SUNBLOCK!!
Which ones fill the bill in my book?
Get into the Holiday DIY Spirit. Project #2: Make a Wreath–from #Volvo!
As I said in the post for project #1, I am not being compensated for this. I just happen to love the gracious sharing and family-time these DIY projects make. However in light of the FTC, here’s my comments.
While I don’t need to do any disclaimer since I am not being compensated for anything in this post or the others in this series, this is a TERRIFIC series of videos courtesy of VOLVO who want you to have a great holiday season. My compensation is hopefully hearing from any and all of you who do even one of these projects. I would love to see photos either on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or my blog.
