A Gift Idea

[DianaB]

I have an idea for a gift for you. We have a little company, not far from where I live, that makes beef jerky and it is the best!!! I usually buy a lot of these and keep them on hand and they make GREAT men's gifts. I use them in all of our Dirty Santa games and what I don't give away as gifts my husband takes hunting with him or we eat it as a snack! Everyone looks forward to receiving it as a gift. Anyway, I hope that it helps someone out!

There's also a cheesecake shop in Mt. Pleasant, Texas, that makes the most WONDERFUL cheesecake. It's too late to order for Christmas (I think) but you might want to keep it in mind for another time. My aunt has had them sent to us and, as I said, they are WONDERFUL!!!! It's just a little bitty store but .......WOW!

Does anyone else have a little company near you that you buy gifts from that the rest of us might not know about? Please share!

Thanks Diana.

That cheesecake place is good to know about.

The places in NYC are just too expensive. They don't now what to charge next for nonsense. I do most of my shopping online, at Kohl's, or a couple of other discount places I know.

Thanks Diana!

I can't think of many "specialty" shops close by. Hubby and I went to a town by the name of Eureka Springs Saturday. They have those quaint little shops everywhere there but there are too many names to mention.

Sheryl,

Did you know there's a Cowgirl Museum? I saw it on a Sunday morning show,
and immediately thought of you. I don't know where it is, but they do have a gift shop.

The cheesecake is rather expensive at Laura's too but it makes a wonderful gift. We used to send it to a family that we rented ground from and we always got the most wonderful thank you cards. I have received several of the samplers too and they are WONDERFUL. I've even been to their little shop and had lunch there. It really is just a tiny liitle place but, oh my it makes delicious stuff!!!!

Sheryl, years ago my husband and I spent a weekend in Eureka Springs! Long time ago! It's a darling little town.

Isn't it such a sweet town Diana! My hubby and I were married there so it holds a very special place in my heart. We have our favorite little places we visit each time we go. I just love Eureka Springs.
