Holiday Gift Idea #2: Something for the Furry Kids


I can't lie, my fur-babies are, without a doubt, more privileged than my sons could have ever dreamed. A good example is bedtime - Picture this, its 10pm and my husband comes into the room ready to climb into bed only to find our 90-lb Labrador has taken his spot and is snoring deeply, occasionally kicking a foot out as he likely dreams of chasing the bunnies that frequently visit our yard. My husband looks down at our dog, Mousse, grabs a pillow and lays down at the foot of the bed.  When I say, "Honey, just move Mousse off the bed." 

His response is classic, "No, I don't want to disturb him, he looks really peaceful." 

Thank heavens we have a king-size bed. Neither of us would ever get a good-night's sleep. So yes, thoroughly spoiled and have us wrapped completely around their...dewclaws. 

A couple years ago we discovered Whisker Biscuits at the Christkindlmarkt in Bethlehem, PA. We introduced the treats to our dogs, and they absolutely LOVED them. In fact, they literally bark at me after work and run with tails wagging to the cabinet where I keep their Whisker Biscuit treats. The reaction is so impressive, last year we sent our grand-pups the Whisker Biscuit Big Sack for Christmas. We were able to ship it directly to them as a gift. It is filled with a variety of their popular treats. My son reported the same reaction we experienced with our dogs. His Huskies were crazy in love with the treats and they usually turn their nose up at all snacks. 

If you are looking for a unique winner of a gift for the special canine in your life, I highly recommend a bag of Whisker Biscuits. Your fur-baby will be thrilled!

Holiday Gift Idea #1: Intelex Warmies Slippers


Imagine slipping your chilly toes into a pair of toasty warm slippers. It can happen. These Intelex Warmies Slippers are my first Santa's Little Helper suggestion when looking for gift-giving ideas this season.

Rated with 4.5 Consumer Stars (2,171 consumers reporting), these off-brand slippers beat out the Warmie brand by a full star and more than $10.00 price difference.

The final selling point, the slippers are filled with millet grains that hold in the heat when you microwave them (no more than 60 seconds at a time) and dried lavender flower to sooth and relax. 

As a gift, I would box these up with a bottle of Baileys Irish Cream, a holiday mug, and a cute card that sends warm holiday wishes from head to toe.
