Give the Gift of Fine Wine Is Welcoming

Give the Gift of Fine Wine
Throughout human history, wine has been a celebratory beverage enjoyed in both social and religious events and rituals. For millenia wine has been savored for luxury, festivity, and religious functions. Wine was historically thought to have medical properties and red wine is proven to be good for heart health. Though not all cultures drank wine for recreation, almost every world culture has a wine history whether used as libation or medicine. In my life, wine is appropriate for enjoyment, fun, and from time to time, as medicine. This fact alone makes wine the ideal gift for any event. Each time I need a gift when visiting a friend’s home, as a housewarming present, or in order to say “thank you,” wine is my first choice. Wine is not only a classy gift, but it’s easy to pair with appetizers, meals, and desserts. Enjoyed in high class social groups, wine pairings and tastings are a great way to network and mix with friends. What a great chance to socialize and learn a thing or two as well!

Recently, I found myself in charge of organizing a relatively large social event. In all the chaos of planning and preparations, I forgot to inform one of the event sponsors of a change in date. The day before the show, we became aware of the error when I received a phone call from the sponsor. Because of the misunderstanding, they were unable to play a part in the event and had blocked time out of their schedule for nothing. My initial response in apology was to send the sponsor a wine and cheese basket from Baskets By Rita. For $150 I was able to send them a basket filled with a selection of red and white wines, cookies, an assortment of cheeses, smoked salmon, gourmet crackers, summer sausage, olives, dried fruits, caramel corn, candy, snack mix, fine chocolates, mixed nuts, and more. I decided that this would be a gift that could be shared among all of their employees and I hoped it would convey my apologies for the mix up. I would endorse a Baskets By Rita wine basket for any occasion for which wine is proper. Whether you need to say thank you, send a housewarming gift, apologize, or present a gift when visiting a friend, Baskets By Rita has the ideal wine basket some of which are BV Cabernet Red Wine Gift Basket for the occasion.   We include  a bottle of BV  Cabernet Sauvignon red wine and  gourmet munchies: Wine-flavored cheese, crackers, beef summer sausage, chocolates, gourmet cookies, nuts,  and more. Red wine baskets make a great thank you basket, housewarning welcome basket, anniversary basket and more.  Visit their wine basket page to see their many designs and choices.

Christmas embellishments always seem more fitting when laid before a snowy white backdrop. Even though snow is not necessary to have a merry Christmas, good food is a necessity! Some of my favorite Christmas goodies are hot cocoa, toffee and chocolates, cookies, dipped pretzels, caramel corn, candy canes, cheese and crackers, hot coffee, and brownies. The best thing about all of these treats is that even if I don’t have the free time to make them myself, there are plenty of very good Colorado businesses which make all these Christmas goodies not far from where I reside. When I need a pick me up to get me in the Christmas mood or a swift gift to bring with me to a Christmas party, mail to my friends and family out of state, or need a festive center piece for my Christmas table, I go to www.basketsbyrita.com and order their Colorado Christmas Basket.

Christmas Coming to Colorado Food Scene

As a true Coloradoan, I have had my share of snowy Christmases. I generally pity people who have never witnessed the splendor of snow flakes outside a warm window with twinkling lights glistening off the white terrain. Christmas decorations always seem more suitable when set upon a snowy white setting. Though snow is not required to have a cheerful Christmas, good food is a must! Some of my favorite Christmas goodies are hot cocoa, peanut brittle and caramels, cookies, chocolate covered pretzels, caramel corn, peppermint candies, cheese and crackers, hot coffee, and baked goods. The best thing about all of these treats is that even if I don’t have the energy to prepare them myself, there are hundreds of outstanding Colorado companies which make all these Christmas treats not far from where I reside. When I need a pick me up to put me in the Christmas mood or a quick present to bring with me to a Christmas party, send to my friends and family out of state, or need a merry center piece for my Christmas table, I visit www.basketsbyrita.com and purchase their Colorado Christmas Basket.
