Valentine's Day: Celebrating Love with Flowers, Chocolate, and Teddy Bears!

Valentine’s Day this year will be an interesting one for my family. Most of you have read about my post about taking a break to care for my mom and how she has been ill from Ovarian Cancer for the past few weeks. For the past two years, I’ve sent mom a flower arrangement with a teddy bear and chocolate. She always gets a kick out of the gift bundles I send. I include a funny note to make her smile. This year, I’m going to go BIG and get the largest bouquet of flowers I can find at 1800Flowers.

My mom is my Valentine this year...she’s my hero. Thanks to 1800Flowers, I know she’ll at least a get a big smile out of my flower arrangement. We were telling her she should start her own flower business because while she was in the hospital, she’s received so many flower arrangements. I thank all of those wonderful friends of hers that have sent her flowers…she’s truly blessed and has a great support group.

IF you had the chance to surprise your Valentine by sending him/her flower arrangements, chocolates, and other gift bundles from 1800Flowers, which one’s would you choose? I’m a fan of flowers but chocolates sound good right about now! You can always count on 1800Flowers to send you beautiful, full, and long-lasting flowers for any occasion.

Giving the Gift of Boxed Chocolates

Every year around this time I go searching my local grocery stores for discounted gift boxed chocolates. When I don't know what to give someone for Christmas, it's an easy gift. I plan on giving everyone of my colleagues at work a gift boxed chocolate set. I'm not sure who will receive which one but thanks to Hershey's Pot of Gold - www.celebratewithhersheys.com, making the decision will be a lot easier than guessing and making a huge mistake. Everyone loves chocolate...don't they?! =-)

According to the National Confectioners Association, the winter holidays represent the biggest boxed chocolate gifting season with more than 70 percent of adults giving or receiving a box of chocolates! Hershey’s Pot of Gold Truffles Sampler and Premium Collection gift boxes are perfect for last minute gifts and delicious stocking stuffers. Get your gift before it's too late!

Hershey Halloween Candy Shopping List Time

BOO!!!! Haha...I love this time of the year! I can feel it in the weather! I don't know about you or your family, but mine has always celebrated Halloween with Hershey's candy products. We know how much kids love Hershey's candy products and even though we consider ourselves very healthy (thus the Organic or Bust Event currently taking place), kids deserve some fun! We love seeing the joy in the trick-or-treater faces after we pull out the Reese Peanut Butter Cups, Kit Kat bars, and Hershey's bars.

If you're not sure what kind of Halloween candy you should add to your shopping list, let Hershey's help you out! Visit www.CelebrateWithHersheys.com/Halloween to find all kinds of products, recipes (if you're the creative type), and even crafts.

Here's a bit of information to help you make your decision on what to add to your shopping list this Halloween: About 30 percent of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, Kit Kat Wafer Bar and Hershey’s Milk Chocolate lovers will do the monster mash this year as a vampire, witch or monster.
