Be Flipping Fabulous on Mondays!

Well good morning bright eyed and bushy tailed people...oh wait, it's Monday and you don't "do" Mondays?

Well whats your problem? While the rest of the office has decided to be grumpy and unkept this Monday morning , why don't you be Fabulous! You can decide to conquer the world this morning and have a great start to the rest of your week. Mondays are a new chance to begin again....reboot, refresh, restart!

A Tisket A Tasket: H54F

Written By: Ooh La La (Danielle Marie)

Welcome to Friday!


Photobucket
Are you attending a cocktail party, dinner at a friend's house or a weekend cookout?  Are you not sure what to bring your host/hostess?  Here are a few High Five for Friday suggestions!

For those of you Southern Ladies and Gentlemen you will die for these mason jar glass with handles!  You can even get them personalized!



 
 
If your host/hostess loves to bake and with macarons being the new dessert of choice, this book would be a huge hit!
 


A gift of chocolate covered strawberries are always appreciated and can be served at the party or saved later for the host to enjoy alone!  These strawberries are from 1-800-baskets, but you can always pre-order them at your local bakery!

 
If you know they are tea lovers, this Samoa Teapot would be a touching gift!  It can be used over and over again, how resourceful!
 

 
 
 
For the cheese lover, which here in Wisconsin we find a lot of, the "King of Cheeses"  (Roquefort) would be an amazing treat!

If you want to be safe, a bottle of red or white wine (host's preference) is a fabulous gift!


 
 
Hope these gave you a few ideas for the next party you are attending, you host/hostess will be ever so grateful for the thoughtfulness.
