GourmetGiftBaskets.com Easter Review



If you are looking for something different for your Easter celebration, you should consider an Easter Bunny Basket 12 inch Cookie Cake from GourmetGiftBaskets.com I know a lot of people like to eat pie, but really how much pie can you eat? You have pie for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Let’s make Easter different. I am not really big on most pies, I really only like a few of them. I love cookies and frosting so this is a perfect Easter treat for my family. It’s also only $34.99. Noah doesn’t really like pie either except for pecan pie and peanut butter pie. He would eat cookies every day of the week though.  The Easter Bunny Basket 12 inch Cookie Cake is not only adorable but it is very tasty. There are many chocolate chips in it. The frosting is delish! Noah loved it too. We enjoyed sitting together and eating it. I had to tell him not to get in to it in the middle of the night, just in case. I didn’t want him getting any ideas for a midnight feast! GourmetGiftBaskets.com has many wonderful items that would make great gifts or just a little something special for yourself. Gift baskets aren’t just for gifts, they are fun for anyone. They have tons of cute Easter items that would brighten anyone’s day! Grandparents have started sending Easter Baskets and treats to their grandchildren. I wish my grandparents did that. I know my grandpa Bill was always good for jellybeans and M&M’s though.

I also received the Hippity-Hoppity Easter Stack ($29.99) to enjoy. It was also adorable. Here’s what was inside: 



Jelly Beans by Buttercup Candy Shoppe - 3.5 oz. - Plump, gourmet jelly beans that explode with refreshing fruit flavors.
 
Peeps by Just Born - Assorted - A classic springtime treat of smooth, gooey marshmallows that are molded into festive shapes and coated with a bright, sweet confection.
   
Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper Popcorn by KingOfPOP.com - 1.4 oz. - Crisp and crunchy handcrafted popcorn that's speckled with freshly cracked pepper and gourmet sea salt.
 
Confetti Popcorn by KingOfPOP.com - 3.11 oz. - Handcrafted gourmet popcorn that's drenched in thin candy shells.
 
Double Crisp Chocolate Bunny - 4.25 oz. - A solid milk chocolate bunny that's flecked with pieces of rice crisp.
 
Original Skittles by Wrigley - 2.17 oz. - Bite-sized chewy candies that burst with irresistibly sweet fruit flavors.

Noah has this weird thing about Peeps He likes to eat them, but he thinks they are so cute, he refuses to eat them. He won’t let others eat them either. He is a silly goose. I really liked the Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper Popcorn. It was salty and peppery yet sweet at the same time. Who doesn’t love jelly beans and Skittles. It’s not Easter without a chocolate bunny!

Celebrate Easter with FairyTale Brownies




Easter is coming! I love Easter or what Noah used to call Eepster.  It’s such a fun holiday for kids. It’s also about Jesus too. Noah loves looking for his Easter basket and seeing what the Easter Bunny has left for him. Now that he is older, it’s harder to figure out what to put in it. It was so easy when he was a baby and toddler, I could just find some cheap toys and books. I didn’t put candy in it until he was older. Now, what the Easter Bunny puts in can be kind of a big deal. He is definitely grateful but he’s at the age where certain things are “babyish” or a lot of his toys are bigger like LEGO sets. I don’t really like to do a basket full of candy as some Easter Bunnies do.  I love candy and tend to always have different types at home so Noah doesn’t get as much candy in his basket than other kids. I had the opportunity to work with FairyTale Brownies to share with you about their new Easter themed Chocolate Chip Brownies.

They are amazing as I knew they would be. Fairytale Brownies are something I secretly crave. Noah loves brownies too, they are a great replacement for candy in your child’s Easter basket.  We even shared a brownie with Noah’s teacher. They have a really cute Easter label, so I wasn’t sure what she would think since it was right after Valentine’s Day. There are many other things you can do with these delicious Chocolate Chip Brownies besides putting them in your children’s Easter Baskets. You could share them with a neighbor or a co-worker. They will definitely bring a smile to their faces every time.  You get 12 brownies so there are plenty to share, for even a sweet tooth like me. You can freeze them too. You can just thaw them on the counter before being taken to a chocolate chip utopia!

 Easter 12 Bulk Chocolate Chip Brownies are $41.95 and worth every penny! This Easter celebrate with FairyTale Brownies.

Fazoli's Snacks Review




When I was in school, we used to pick up food on Thursday nights every week as a treat for making it through the week. We did it on Thursdays because we often spent Friday nights at my dad’s house. One of the places we would go is Fazoli’s. There was one in our town and they have breadsticks. I love Italian food a lot. I remember ordering delicious food from the drive thru. I always preferred going in and eating though because they were always walking around with the baskets of breadsticks. When you went to the drive thru you only got a couple. We would go to Fazoli’s about once a month, alternating other fast food restaurants the other weeks. It’s been a while since I have been to Fazoli’s, and boy did I miss it. I said did because now Fazoli's has their own brand of appetizers in the frozen section at Walmart called Fazoli's Snacks. There is really something for everyone.



They even have mini cheese filled breadsticks that Noah loves. I love the dipping sauce. It’s so flavorful. It’s also cheaper and better than ordering pizza every time Noah or I want breadsticks, which is a lot.   I personally love the Boneless Parmesan Chicken. It even comes with marina sauce for dipping! So if your kids aren’t sauce fans they can enjoy it too! I can’t wait for Noah to try the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli because he is the pickiest kid in the world. He doesn’t eat meat and he doesn’t like sauce! I know I know, he’s goofy as can be. I really like that the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli has the sauce on the side. Maybe he will try it then. I really like the Lasagna Fritta too.  I love Lasagna and this is a great way to have a bite size easy way to eat it. The crust is great too. I think that Fazoli’s Snacks are great for any get together, game night or to have for dinner. Make different varieties and have an amazing Italian buffet!
