In the Race

Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in the Red Queen's Race...

There's No Place Like Home, for Shopping #4

DO YOU LOVE COOKIES?  Super thin, extra crispy cookies? 

Then you have to give
Mrs. Hanes Hand-Made Moravian Cookies ,
out of
 Clemmons, NC  a try.

Or give them for a Christmas gift!

They come in Ginger, Sugar, Lemon, Chocolate,
 
Butterscotch and Black Walnut. 

They are hand-rolled and cut. 

My favorites?  Ginger and Black Walnut!

During Hannukah, or any time of year,

THERE'S NO BETTER JEWISH DELI than ZABAR'S, out of New York! 

Smoked Fish, Deli Meats, Cheeses, Coffee, even Babka (sorry, I make my own)!

You just have to take a look at famous Zabar's to believe it!

Just so there will be "A Little Less Conversation" from my friend Kevin, I'm including one of his favorite recommendations:

 SHOP ELVIS.COM

All I have to say is, "Don't Be Cruel"  to Kevin, get your a$$ over to this site and check out the great Elvis merchandise and collectibles, including crazy Elvis Christmas Gifts!

Internet Shopping Trip #3

 

 

Imagine finding all types of crafts and supplies in one place, online.  Good quality and some unusual stuff, too!  Also, wedding supplies!  I LOVE  Save-on-Crafts!  And not just for crafts.  They have bulk order pricing, too.  Check it out!

The next selection is where I by most of my Greeting Cards.  

It's called My Lady Shop, out of Richardson, Texas.  This little shop is unique and besides cards has papers, little gifts and tea, too.  The cards are beautiful, unique and nice quality and come individually or boxed.  Customer service is great and delivery prompt.  Forget the local card store.

 Internet Shopping Trip #2

One of my all-time favorite East Coast shopping sites for Gourmet Handmade Candy
is called Harbor Sweets, located in Salem, Massachusetts. 

Oh, man ...  Talk about unique, rich candy! 

If you want something truly different or want to make an impression with a gift,
this is the stuff to order. 

My favorites?  Sweet Sloops and Sand Dollars

Oh, what am I saying ...  I LOVE  them all!

                    Harbor Sweets

 

My next selection is something HUGE! 

Hilltop Restaurant in L'Anse, Michigan bakes and ships these GIGANTIC SWEET ROLLS.  I'm not kidding. 

"Warm and flaky, shot through with cinnamon and dripping with a sugar glaze.   

Tipping the scales at over a pound each, Hilltop Sweet Rolls are made fresh through-out the day from scratch."

What else can I say ... except, plan ahead ....

Shipping is the FIRST and THIRD Tuesday of the month, only.

 Internet Shopping Trip #1

If you have any love for Cape Cod, New England, or just the beauty of the outdoors, take a look at this calendar, if not for yourself, but for a gift.  Or, just for the heck of it.

Barbara Ford Doyle Calendars



 
The second is my all time favorite site for fresh Jewish rye bread.  The kind I used to drive to the bakery to get in Waterbury, CT (along with fresh baked jelly donuts) with my Dad on Sunday mornings while listening to polkas on the radio.  It comes fresh baked, next day or second day air.  Besides bread, there is a plethora of interesting finds on the Zingerman’s site; amazing stuff.  They have the BEST customer service too.
