Last week my Mother-in-Law was over at our house to hang out with my wife and our baby. While they were giving the little one a bath, I stepped out to do the week’s grocery shopping. While I was leaving the store, for some reason I stopped in on the florist on the corner. On impulse I bought each of them a bouquet of roses. I brought them back for the ladies with the statement “Just to let you both know how much I appreciate you”. I know bragging about this sort of spoils my “good guy” image, but I’m just saying: a few flowers can go a long way in brightening someones day.

Flowers are one of those few gifts that are appropriate for just about any occasion.

Birthday Flowers Flowers for birthdays are one of the most common reasons. While flowers are generally suited to older people on your birthday present list, they’re a good choice if you don’t have a lot of time to shop around. Having flowers delivered can save time and still be a special gift for someone in your life, letting you add a personal touch or message.

Wedding Flowers Ordering from flower shops for your wedding doesn’t have to be a time consuming and difficult process. Putting together a wedding (even a simple one) isn’t an easy task. If you can order your wedding flowers online and have the flowers delivered, you can save time and spend it on other aspects of your wedding. (Your honeymoon perhaps? It makes great sense to order flowers online and spend more time planning the honeymoon.)

Get Well Flowers Getting flowers delivered to someone in the hospital or sick at home is not only a great idea, it’s easy. Ordering from online flower shops can save you time and money if you want to send a “pick me up” to someone who is feeling under the weather or facing a serious illness. Flower shops usually love going the extra mile when they know the flowers are for someone who is ill.

Flowers as Business Gifts With a lot of business being done online or in a virtual way, real life special touches are more important than ever. Having flowers delivered to one of your customers might be the one thing that brings your company to the forefront, landing you the big deal. Even if it doesn’t “close the deal” for you, the image of your company will be better off because you decided to have flowers delivered.

Just Because Flowers As I mentioned earlier, sometimes sending flowers “just because” can be a special way to brighten someone’s day - whether it’s a love interest, a close friend, or a family member. Flower delivery isn’t a complicated process, especially when you order online, this makes it easy to send flowers “just because.” Sometimes even a small gesture like this can mean a lot to someone.

There are a few occasions that you just can’t screw up. What I mean to say is, if you screw up or forget, well you just screwed up really bad. Some of these are obvious, anniversaries, your partners birthday and the like…but Mother’s Day is absolutely one of those occasions you can’t forget!

I know, I know, you are out of the house, we are all busy, have a lot of stuff going on…but I’m telling you: you don’t want to drop the ball on this one! Oh she will tell you it doesn’t matter, that it’s no big deal, but it is. You will hurt her feelings. She will feel bad, perhaps dropping just how much it hurt her feelings in conversation at inopportune times in conversation for years to come…and then you will feel bad.You my friend will feel bad because you know you screwed up, and that you were a bad kid. Don’t let it happen! There is no reason for that!

In my experience it is best to plan in advance for such holidays like “Mother’s Day” .. anniversaries, birthdays, etc. If you don’t, time begins to fly and before you know it, the day is upon you or worst yet - YOU FORGET!!

Luckily my mom understands that in these tough times a small and loving statement, like a fragrant bouquet of beautiful flowers is enough. Once upon a time I might have whipped out a credit card or two and bought something sparkly and expensive, but the recession has brought such impulses to a halt.Time to tighten the purse strings, but I never planned on skimping on sentiment and general appreciation for dear ol’ mommy!

Is it just me or is there a surplus of March birthdays? Seems like every other day I am getting an Evite or an RSVP card to one shindig or another. Not complaining, just seemed odd.

While I dearly love all my friends and family and I especially love celebrating good times, in these tough economic times so many festivities is beginning to weigh down my wallet. I have been thinking of sending my congratulations and good tidings via snail mail and saving some dinero. Well for my god daughter’s birthday I sent the following Birthday Flower Cake featured on the left.

1-800 Flower’s signature floral birthday cake may look good enough to eat, but don’t—it’s actually crafted from fresh flowers such as mini carnations and poms! It arrives in a bakery box with a set of candles where available, and with proper care, can last days after the celebration is complete! Birthday Flower Cake is available with pastel-colored or bright-colored flowers.

Price $39.99 (If you are interested in purchasing the Birthday Flower Cake - Click here!)

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to be more pro-active with all my responsibilities, primarily people’s birthdays and special occasions. With that in mind I am already thinking of what to get my grandma whose birthday falls really close to Valentine’s Day. (Her birthday is February 16th, I don’t know why you would care just FYI!)

So I was shopping around searching for great deals on maybe a gift basket or special floral bouquet. Cliche’ I know but it’s always a crowd pleaser. Plus if you are searching for a gift for your girl friend, crush, or domestic partner I figure you could use the savings option as well.

Well this Mixed Rose Bouquet courtesy of Martha Stewart is a definite gift possibility. Red, pink and lavendar roses provide lush beauty and freshness. Plus the unique silver julep cup container can be used as home decor once the flowers perish. It’s a win-win. Price $39.95

Question: Does it smell like pee? Answer: Surprisingly No! The Urinal Cake Candle by Hotwicks was born when one of the founders of Hotwicks relieved himself on a cake at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas! Consequently the candle actually smells of floral cinnamon and not urine. I can’t decide whether I am pleased or disappointed to discover this news!
Hotwicks has a plethora of “unique” scented candles, themes like hippie, pigskin and stripper scented candles! (I imagine that the stripper scent smells like cocoa butter sprinkled with tears of despair..ha,ha!) These candles make the perfect gift for that tawdry bachelor party or for any good natured pal who could use a chuckle.
