Outside my kitchen window the leaves are all turning pretty shades of yellow and red and many are dropping off the trees. Halloween is barely more than a week away which means that before you know it, the Holiday season will be here.

I like to avoid all the rush of holiday shopping by doing as much as I can early. So this year even though there may be ghosts and goblins on my front door, I’m inside doing my Christmas shopping. Yes, you guessed correctly, I like to purchase many of my Christmas gifts online and have them delivered right to my home. I save time and online I can find many great gifts at bargain prices.

Much of the time I visit a favorite personalized gift store – Eye Candy Gift. I love their huge selection of everything from baby gifts to wedding gifts. At Christmas, they often run a buy one get one for 25% off sale that makes my gift giving even easier on my budget. Their customer service is very nice too. Unlike some sites where you never find a number or hear a phone answered, Eye Candy Gift displays their phone number at the top of the site. If you call during their posted service hours, you’ll get a courteous employee who really knows what they sell (or will find out the details for you). Now that’s my kind of store – maybe it’s your kind of store too.

I’ve been accused of being more in love with my poodle than with my husband. However, when I saw this new enamel black poodle brooch from the Magic Zoo I told him (jokingly, of course) “I’m going to divorce you if you don’t order this for me right this minute!” He laughed. He used to these outbursts from me. But seriously, isn’t this the most beautiful representation of a poodle-cut poodle? I can’t wait till it arrives! Read more »
