In my (Danetta talking here) world there is nothing better than a newborn baby!! Seriously just typing this makes me swoon big time. I can hardly contain my excitement when someone I know is expecting, knowing there will be gifts to buy and babies to snuggle. Because I know how many diapers a new mom…

Easy Birthday Gift Idea-Candy Bouquet in a Mug
Have you missed us? (What? Don’t tell us you didn’t notice we were gone!) We have been busy swimming, playing, hiking, vacationing, reading and just overall enjoying summer. We decided to take a few weeks off partly so we could enjoy summer and partly because in all honesty it’s HARD to keep the blog running…
Bridal Shower Gift Idea-Recipe for a Happy Marriage
It’s been a while since we’ve been in the wedding scene-I guess we’re getting old, because by now it’s no longer our friends getting married but we’re getting close to our friends kids getting married. What?! So we’ve had a few bridal showers to attend lately and it’s fun thinking up cute gifts to give….
Here’s the Scoop Ice Cream Gift Idea
A couple of weeks ago we went for a walk in the evening together-probably walked a few miles, burned a few hundred calories, talked enough to solve all the world’s problems. We love to walk together for exercise and because it’s nice to have time to talk. But you know what’s NOT good after you…
Movie Night Gift Idea
A dark, cool theater, the buttery smell of popcorn, passing around the candy and watching a great show on the big screen. Sound like fun to you? We thought so too, so when we had two of our friends, who happen to be sisters, have birthdays within about a week of each other, we thought…

Diet Coke Cake
When I say Diet, you say Coke…Diet Coke! Am I (Danetta) the only one who gets excited about my favorite drink?! 🙂 I would gladly trade in a baked cake for this awesome Diet Coke Cake any day of the week. Don’t get me wrong, I love birthday cake, but I think this Diet Coke…

Recharge Gift Idea
I (Danetta) was talking to a friend recently and she mentioned she felt like she was running on empty and didn’t have any steam left. As I tried to think what I could do for her, I realized I couldn’t really lift the specific load she was carrying, but I could let her know I…
Bright & Colorful Gift Idea
It’s a dreary time of year (at least where we live) and sometimes it bums us out. What bums us out even more is when a friend is struggling with one of life’s challenges and we feel like we can’t fix her problems. Sometimes we just want to do something to brighten someone’s day, so we’ve…
Pedicure Birthday Gift
Everyone loves to be spoiled for their birthday. And maybe a pedicure sounds like just the ticket to you?! We know that a lot of our friends love to pamper themselves, but we also know that life can be busy and sometimes it’s hard to get find the time to spoil yourself. This pedicure birthday…

Pineapple Gift Idea
You guys! January and February Just. Get. Us. Down! Does that happen to you? It’s so cold and so dreary and so slow paced after the Fall and Winter holidays and it can just be so very gloomy. Sigh. We have both been struggling to find bright spots in the gloom, so when a friend…
Scent-Sational Gift Idea
In Danetta’s house is a closet. And in that closet there are Bath and Body products. Bottle after bottle of bath and products. She’s got lotions and shower gels, sanitizers, lip glosses, air fresheners and anything else you can think of. You *might* call it an addiction. OK, you for sure would. That being said,…
Funfetti Cookies in a Jar Mix
A month or two ago we posted a recipe for Funfetti Whoopie Pies and it’s been one of our most popular posts (and also-they are so yummy!). And since we like to make things fun to give away as cute gifts, we thought it would be great to put the Funfetti Cookies as a mix…
Brighten Your Day Gift Idea
This week I’ve feel like I’ve been surrounded by friends who are having a rough time. Some of them are major hard times and others are just small things that add up to a lot of stress, but either way, it just seems like a lot of my friends and family are struggling in life…

“Pretty Awesome” Gift Idea
How fun is this “Pretty Awesome” gift idea? It’s a perfect gift for any girl, teen, or lady in your life! This gift idea emerged after my sister asked for makeup for her birthday. That seemed a little too dull for a birthday gift, so I was on a mission to make makeup fun…and I think I succeeded! This…
