Jim Bob & Michelle Duggar were elected as the 2009 National Parents of the Year and if you’re oppressively thinking, “Great, we can hardly handle our one child, there’s no way we could ever be nominated for such a grand award.” Sulk no longer because there are plenty of other things you and your significant other can do to celebrate Parents Day without having to worry about such awards that don’t include an entire camera lens full of your 19 children. In fact, it seems on days such as this that the customary thing to do is get away from those progeny that you so love for a nice, well-deserved date night.

Date Night Ideas For Parents, Soon-To-Be Parents, and Aspirational Parents:
P.S. These are some great ideas to “treat” your parents to if you are those lovely little progeny mentioned previously.

•    Host a costumed Murder Mystery Dinner. Serve gourmet chocolate cookies, of course.
•    Get in some laughs at a Comedy Club.
•    Rustle up some grub at a Rodeo. Wranglers with large belt-buckles and tucked in shirts a must.
•    Take a Swing Dancing Class.
•    Enjoy peasant-fair at Medieval Times.
•    Check out the latest exhibit at your Museum.

Happy Parents Day!

Nurses week is celebrated May 6-12: National Nurses Day (May 6th) through Florence Nightingale’s birthday (May 12th). It’s fitting that the celebration ends with Florence Nightingale’s birthday, as she did revolutionize nursing. We’ve even named a non-medical condition after her: the Florence Nightingale Syndrome, which occurs when a caregiver develops strong feelings for, or falls in love with, the patient he/she is nursing. In turn, it can also psychologically effect the patient, who can develop romantic feelings toward their caretaker as they begin to see them as their protector. Hmm…rich, luxurious, gourmet cookies seem to have a special “effect” on people—should we call that the “Heavenly Cookie Effect”?

Regardless if you’ve experienced the Florence Nightingale Effect or not, I think its safe to say we can all agree that being sick isn’t fun—but being taken care of while you’re out-of-commission can make things a whole lot easier! Nurses have that little bit of magic to help you get better sooner, and there’s no better time to show your appreciation than for Nurses Week! Your angelic caregiver would love to see some care in return for all of their devotion and optimism along the way! Gourmet chocolate cookie baskets brimming with the decadence of cookies like chocolate chip, coconut macaroon, rocky road, raspberry eclipse, mint eclipse, oatmeal raisin, and English toffee Chocolate Chip should do the trick.

There are nearly 3.1 million registered nurses in the United States, and, 2.4 million of them are actively employed. Their motto: “Caring today for a healthier tomorrow.”

Not many of us have the opportunity to touch the lives of others (and save lives) on a daily basis like nurses do—Thank you to all of the wonderful, optimistic, fun and caring nurses out there!

“April showers bring May Flowers”—and babies! As it happens, any time of year is a wonderful time to have an adorable bundle of joy left on your doorstep by the stork, but there’s something very special about spring with all of the the new flora and fauna—blooming life is welcomed after a long winter sleep and a baby shower is just the thing to get everyone excited!

Looking for the perfect gift that any new mom or mom-to-be will love and won’t have to return to Babies-R-Us? Two words: gourmet  cookies. Either bring a beautiful silver heirloom tray of gourmet cookie gifts as an irresistible treat to share, or if you can’t make it to the event, send the a stylishly packaged box of gourmet goodness directly to the bride’s address as a “Welcome New Baby” gift. Heavenly Charm Pink (shown above) is perfect for a new mom-to-be that’s having a new baby girl, and Heavenly Charm Blue (shown below) makes a lovely congratulations to any new mother of a baby boy.

Whether its a precious new baby girl or handsome new baby boy, you can rest assured that “showering” the mother-to-be with gourmet chocolate cookie gifts will certainly make her day a sweet one!
