I’ve been spending some time online looking for Diaper Bags and Changing Tables. We are holding a surprise baby shower for a co worker and I have been put in charge of finding the perfect gift from 3 of us that want to go in together and get her something decent but affordable that we can pitch in together and purchase for her.
She doesn’t really need any Nursery or Furniture items, so that is a plus, we couldn’t afford anything like that but there are plenty of Babies and Toddlers items that we could pool our money together to get for her. This is her second child so she does have plenty of items left over from the first one, which is a good thing. Babies are expensive and it adds up real quick like.
Since she doesn’t plan on Nursing and Feeding the baby from her god given breasts there are bottle items to consider, but those don’t cost much and I’m sure she will be getting a variety of those types of products from a variety of sources.
Planning a surprise baby shower isn’t easy, but I think that we can pull it off. It will be fun and I look forward to seeing the look on her face when we catch her off guard next month. It’s all good!
Had to go to the local Jiffy Lube during lunch today and have them throw an oil change on my car. Thank goodness they got me in and out quickly, I even had enough time to grab a bit to eat before heading back to work. Lunch breaks are never quite long enough to get things done and something in the stomach to keep you going until you clock out.
I’m so grateful for Hamburger Helper. They have really come out with a great variety of flavors to pick from. They even have Tuna Helper and Chicken Helper these days. Making dinner can’t get much easier than using one of their products. The fact that they are inexpensive is a major plus. I find them on sale for $1 a box and stock up and I’m good to go!
I love peanut butter sandwiches. You can add honey, or butter, or marshmallow fluff, or a cut up banana or jelly and jams galore and you will always come up with a first class sandwich each time. I don’t have a favorite brand, I usually just buy what is on sale or what looks good at the moment, any peanut butter works for me and it’s good for you, now how cool is that?
Today’s reason to send a smile is that it is National Smiles Week. Bet you didn’t know that, I sure didn’t - but then I rarely keep up with all of the “national holidays” that they have come up with. If it wasn’t for being online and having these pieces of trivia such as this I really wouldn’t know one national holiday from another.
Since there seems to be a holiday for each day of the year it makes it easier to find an excuse to send someone that you care about one of the wonderful gift baskets that you can find at 1800baskets.com. I used to love getting gift baskets on Secretary’s day when I worked for a large well known insurance company. And all of the baby and bridal showers that we always held for each other throughout the years warranted many a gift baskets and always had the neatest products, plants, food and/or flowers and all kinds of other goodies placed strategically through the arrangements.
