Micro brew beer for a birthday YES

Happy birthday gift baskets to show you haven't forgotten special people in your life.
Happy Birthday to me Happy Birthday to me. Do you ever feel like almost everyone has forgotten your birthday this year. Well I always remind myself that I would be flabbergasted at how little other people think about me. It is one of those funny things that makes you feel dreadfully unimportant. Sorry  to say it is oh so true.

I think that being very busy is a curse when it comes to taking special care of important friendships. Time passes so rapidly and the next thing you know you have missed that friend, family member or top business associate’s milestone birthday. It is perhaps too thwarting to send a gift late, so you vow that it won't happen when their birthday comes around next year. I think about how hard it is to give a gift to someone that either has everything or is very picky. They are impossible.

Kosher Hanukkah Gifts in Blue for YOU!!

On Hanukkah, which means to dedicate, the Jews regained control of Jerusalem and rededicated the Temple. After recovering Jerusalem and the Temple, Judah ordered the Temple to be cleansed, a new altar to be built and new holy vessels to be made. According to the Talmud, olive oil was required for the Temple’s menorah, which had   to burn throughout the night for 8 nights. They only had adequate oil for 1 night.  Miraculously it burned for eight days which was how long it took to prepare new oil for the menorah.  Hanukkah is the celebration of this miracle.


Kosher comes from a entire set of rules that come from the Torah, which are awfully complex and explicity states which are allowed and forbidden.  Animals must have cloven hoves and chew their cud. Fish must have fins and scales. Other types of food must be in part fixed by a Jewish person. It contrasts how closely people go by these requirements.


During the holiday season  many Jewish people stick very closely to the rules of Kosher food. Therefore, it is important when chosing food to give to your Jewish friend and business partners that you consult someone that recognizes Kosher food requirement. Giving gifts to your Jewish friends during the Chanukah holiday season will illustrate that you respect their beliefs.

Kosher Hanukkah GIft basket
Basketsbyrita understands Kosher food and offers a few choices for gift giving.  This year’s Hanukkah celebration takes place December  11 – 19, 2009. Often times businesses give gifts to their staff and to show their appreciation. If they give a Kosher gift they show they have paid attention. So, for the Jewish business people on your list send a Kosher gift basket as a business thank you gift.  Our organic fruit gift basket is also a good choice for a Hanukkah gift basket.  The Kosher Hanukkah gift basket contains foods that meet the requirement to be called Kosher.  Basketsbyrita also adds menorah candles for the Menorah to add to the celebration. I great way to illustrate respect  for your friends and clients during the holiday season.

They order everything from our Baby girl bassinet gift basket, baby boy bassinet gift basket,  New Baby boy gift basket and our baby girl gift basket or our baby boy gift basket. Giving a gift to celebrate the birth of a new baby is a awesome way for a company to declare we want to welcome this new baby to the planet. Messages read "congratulations on the birth of your new baby from your co-workers at XYZ department" or "wow what a awesome way to get out of work for a while. We hope you get some rest soon. We miss you!  The Office Staff"

baby boy gift basket
Offering lots of selections for new baby baskets is very important as we know that each person wants something different. We have discovered that our welcome wagon gifts have been extremely popular. I think people like the fact that the container is a miniature red wagon which makes a superb keepsake item for the newborn to enjoy as they get older. Our products are high quality and we offer brand names items such as Baby Einstein and TY bears. Our gift baskets contain toy rattles, cookies for mom and dad, soap, lotion, picture frames, wash cloths, teddy bears and more.

Showing respect at those sad saying goodbyes

When become aware that someone has died, your first instinct is to send a gift to the deceased’s family in their time of grief, but make sure you know and follow suitable funeral gift etiquette according to their culture. There is a selection of gifts that you might consider sending to the grieving family that will ease their suffering and send the message that your thoughts are with them in their time of hardship.

Food: Perhaps the most welcome gift during a time of mourning is that of food. Whether you have meals delivered or drop by with a casserole, the message is that you are thoughtful of the family’s loss. However, be insightful about intruding on the family’s time when bringing the gift. A brief visit of about 15 minutes is fitting to deliver the food and convey condolences. Proper funeral gift etiquette for food is to offer items that require little preparation, such as a sympathy gift basket or a comfort food gift basket. Even if you believe that many people will give food, your Bereavement gift basket will last of many weeks without being opened since all the items are shelf stable.
bereavement gift basket
Flowers: The most widespread funeral gift is flowers. Before you send any, find out if there are certain conditions for memoral service flowers depending on the religious association of the deceased. For example, Jewish funeral traditions don’t integrate flowers while other gifts are considered more correct. Others, such as Hindus or Muslims, don’t consider funeral flowers as conventional, but the gesture may be seen as kind by certain groups. Funeral flowers for a Catholic, LDS or Buddhist funerals are fitting and welcomed. Consult a florist if you have any doubts, they will be well versed in varioustraditions for funerals.

Gifts to Charity: Memorial gifts are a popular tradition that allows money that would normally be spent on luxurious floral arrangements to be designated for a explicit organization, charity or event. Usually, the family will state a preferred charity in the funeral announcement and ask for donations in lieu of gifts. Don’t violate funeral gift etiquette by sending flowers if the family has distinctively asked not to.

After the Funeral: Funeral gift etiquette as well allows friends and family members to send a fruit and cheese gift basket in the days and years following a funeral. A sincere card or memento on the anniversary of the death sends the message that you care about family members and remember their loss. Even following up with family members a few weeks after the funeral with a meal or a potted plant can have a big impact on the grieving heart.

Funeral gift etiquette suggests that family members send a thank you card for the sympathy  gift baskets or services they got during a time of sadness, don’t be offended if you don’t receive one at all or if it arrives several weeks or months after the funeral. When someone is dealing with grief, time can slip by quickly.

Showing respect at those sad saying goodbyes

When become aware that someone has died, your first instinct is to send a gift to the deceased’s family in their time of grief, but make sure you know and follow suitable funeral gift etiquette according to their culture. There is a selection of gifts that you might consider sending to the grieving family that will ease their suffering and send the message that your thoughts are with them in their time of hardship.

Food: Perhaps the most welcome gift during a time of mourning is that of food. Whether you have meals delivered or drop by with a casserole, the message is that you are thoughtful of the family’s loss. However, be insightful about intruding on the family’s time when bringing the gift. A brief visit of about 15 minutes is fitting to deliver the food and convey condolences. Proper funeral gift etiquette for food is to offer items that require little preparation, such as a sympathy gift basket or a comfort food gift basket. Even if you believe that many people will give food, your Bereavement gift basket will last of many weeks without being opened since all the items are shelf stable.

Flowers: The most widespread funeral gift is flowers. Before you send any, find out if there are certain conditions for memoral service flowers depending on the religious association of the deceased. For example, Jewish funeral traditions don’t integrate flowers while other gifts are considered more correct. Others, such as Hindus or Muslims, don’t consider funeral flowers as conventional, but the gesture may be seen as kind by certain groups. Funeral flowers for a Catholic, LDS or Buddhist funerals are fitting and welcomed. Consult a florist if you have any doubts, they will be well versed in varioustraditions for funerals.

Gifts to Charity: Memorial gifts are a popular tradition that allows money that would normally be spent on luxurious floral arrangements to be designated for a explicit organization, charity or event. Usually, the family will state a preferred charity in the funeral announcement and ask for donations in lieu of gifts. Don’t violate funeral gift etiquette by sending flowers if the family has distinctively asked not to.

After the Funeral: Funeral gift etiquette as well allows friends and family members to send a fruit and cheese gift basket in the days and years following a funeral. A sincere card or memento on the anniversary of the death sends the message that you care about family members and remember their loss. Even following up with family members a few weeks after the funeral with a meal or a potted plant can have a big impact on the grieving heart.

Funeral gift etiquette suggests that family members send a thank you card for the sympathy gift baskets or services they got during a time of sadness, don’t be offended if you don’t receive one at all or if it arrives several weeks or months after the funeral. When someone is dealing with grief, time can slip by quickly.

Rededication celebration food for Hanukkah

On Hanukkah, which means to dedicate, the Jews regained control of Jerusalem and rededicated the Temple. After recovering Jerusalem and the Temple, Judah ordered the Temple to be cleansed, a new altar to be built and new holy vessels to be made. According to the Talmud, olive oil was required for the Temple’s menorah, which had to burn all the way through the night for 8 nights. They only had adequate oil for 1 night. Miraculously it burned for eight days which was how long it took to prepare new oil for the menorah. Hanukkah is the celebration of this miracle.


Kosher comes from a whole set of rules that come from the Torah, which are exceedingly complex and explicity states which are tolerated and banned. Animals must have cloven hoves and chew their cud. Fish must have fins and scales. Other types of food must be in part prepared by a Jewish person. It contrasts how closely people go by these requirements.
During the holiday season many Jewish people embrace very closely to the rules of Kosher food. Therefore, it is important when chosing food to give to your Jewish friend and business partners that you consult someone that understands Kosher food requirement. Giving gifts to your Jewish friends during the Chanukah holiday season will confirm that you respect their beleifs.

Organic Fruit Basket
Basketsbyrita understands Kosher food and offers a few options for gift giving. This year’s Hanukkah celebration takes place December 11 – 19, 2009. Often times businesses give gifts to their staff and to show their appreciation. If they give a Kosher gift as a business holiday gift basket they show they have paid attention. So, for the Jewish business people on your list choose a Kosher gift basket as a business thank you gift. Our organic fruit basket is also a good choice for a Hanukkah gift basket. The Hanukkah gift basket contains foods that meet the conditions to be called Kosher. Basketsbyrita also adds menorah candles for the Menorah to add to the celebration.

Colorado Gifts are out for the holidays



Christmas is a very accepted time of year for many businesses to give presents. Many businesses follow, what I believe, is a very smart option by avoiding anything that has religious implications. That means that the gifts they provide will not include the words Christmas or will they use the words Merry Christmas in their note. A company wants to give a gift that will be remembered and appreciated. This time of year is so emotionally charged with the feeling of another year gone by and reflection on the year as a whole. There is also optimism about the coming year too. The corporate holiday gift is an important method for companies to say thank you for your business and along with that is the hope there will be a feeling of loyalty for continued business.


A Colorado Christmas gift basket is an outstanding choice for a business. A Christmas gift basket is great since everyone enjoys yummy food. However, take your time and choose carefully many gift baskets are quickly put together and have foods that you can find in any grocery store. You want the presentation to be stunning and the food to taste awesome. Otherwise the gift basket, which is a symbol of your business, will create a feeling of quick dismissive. Giving gifts automatically creates a kind of social obligation to want to do something for the person.

Business often times give Colorado wine gift baskets and beer basket at the holidays. I would recommend doing that only if you know the client well and you are confident that the alcohol will be appreciated. Corporate holiday gifts come in all sizes and themes so corporate gifts can be selectedchosen to suggest the import ants of the recipient. This conclusion might also be driven by the amount of the group the gift basket is intended for. It often times is more gainful to gift a single gift to the team instead of one small one for each person. The choice is yours. http://www.basketsbyrita.com

Why not call it home Colorado

High end living in the high country or something like that.


This luxury suite complex is not like the others! You might ask yourself what represents true high end living? Some expensive apartment complexes provide everything you could want except for the dear attention that is most important. Not so for one apartment complex in the greater Denver area. Not only do they provide everything from attractively appointed unit they have a theater, fitness center, gardens, covered parking and a commons area for socializing. "As a young single business professional I found it the perfect choice for me" said one of the tenants I spoke with.

This company approached us about a year ago looking for a new company to provide their welcome new tenant gifts. They had been working with another Denver gift basket company that just didn't seem to value them as a customer. Boy have I heard that enough times, and I've said it a few too. We met to discuss what they needed and I provided them with some samples of welcome gift baskets within their budget to use as welcome gifts to new and renewing leaseholders.Colorado Welcome Gift Basket

One year later we are still filling their big orders for welcome gifts. The management wasn't sure which design to settle on so for a few months we were sending them half Colorado welcome gifts and half gourmet food gift baskets. Finally after talking to residents

Mother's Day gifts for the garden lover


Here is a wonderful story about a Mother’s day gift. There was a woman who had two daughters and these daughters had an idea of the perfect Mother’s day gift. Each year they would purchase flats of annual flowers that they would give to their mother. Not only were the flowers a great gift but they would also spend time with her to plant the flowers. Time, something that is precious and in this case given so freely. The flowers would bloom all summer long and every time she would go out to tend them she would be reminded of her daughters.


The staff at Baskets by Rita has come up with a gift that is a variation on this same theme. Many of you don’t live close to Mom anymore so this might be just the thing. We have put together a great canvas tote bag that has pockets for gardening tool like spades and shovels along with cookies, candies, chocolates, tea and other great g00dies for her to enjoy. Our Mother’s day Gardening Gift Basket will make the prefect Mother’s day gift. In addition to sending her our Gardening gift you could send her some money to get the flowers to plant. I would suggest asking Dad to assist with the planting in your place. He could play a little game of remember when you did this or said that.


So, if you want your Mother’s Day gift delivered in Denver Colorado or Fort Collins Colorado we can add the flowers for you. This very useful and fun gift will help make her time in the gardent even more enjoyable.

Looking for the perfect Corporate Employee Gifts?


Are you looking for the perfect Corporate Employee Gifts? Coming up with something that is affordable, and will show your gratitude can be difficult. Well, Baskets by Rita offers a fantastic solution to that problem. They specialize in creating unique gift baskets that are filled with fun and thoughtful treats for your employees.

In fact, the last week in April is a really fantastic time to give your Employee Appreciation Gifts. This week has actually evolved out of Administrative Professional's Day and it is designed to celebrate the importance of administrative assistants, secretaries, receptionists, and anyone else that supports your office. In fact, Administrative Professional's Week has become a holiday that is observed from far and wide. Many places schedule parties and events, but the most common way of celebrating is to present valued employees with a gift. Traditional gifts include candy, lunch, flowers.

You may wonder why you would want to purchase Corporate employee gifts in a tight economy. Well the truth is that this tight economy is affecting everyone including your employees. While they are working through the daily grind, office moral can really start to dip. By giving Employee Thank You Gifts you can really help to boost that. Not only does it validate the work that they have been doing, but it will also help to motivate them to keep going.

Baskets by Rita has some amazing Corporate Employee Gifts that are specifically geared towards Administrative Professionals Week. One great choice is the “Thanks-a-Million” gift basket. This basket is decorated in lush gold and green, and it will let your employee know how much their work has meant to you and the company. The “Thanks-a-Million” basket is filled with delicious coffee to get your employees going in the morning. It also has delicious cookies, snack mix, candies, and mixed nuts to keep that energy up throughout the day.

The “World of Thanks” gift basket is perfectly designed to give to an office employee. It is actually constructed of a collapsible file box. However, it has a bit of whimsy to it as that file box has been covered in a world map. The file box is filled with delicious Starbucks coffees and some delicious snacks to enjoy like a chocolate bar, wine flavored cheddar cheese, and even strawberry cheesecake popcorn.

Perhaps one of the most interesting Employee Thank You Gifts that Baskets by Rita has available is their “Flower Bouquet and Seeds.” It may look like a bright bouquet of Gerber daisies, but it is so much more than that. The “stem” of each flower is actually a clear plastic tube that is filled with multicolored chocolate covered sunflower seeds. With this gift your employees will have a beautiful bouquet to keep on display while also having a delicious snack lying within.

Those are just a few of the fantastic gift ideas that Baskets by Rita has available this year for Administrative Professionals Week. So take a little time out to let your staff know how much they mean to both you and your company. You have no idea how much it will mean to them.
