The Birthday Gift $1.99 Meredith is a cake-baking, apron-wearing small-town Canadian mom. Her guiding principle in life is, "What would June Cleaver do?" That is, until a curious set of circumstances cause her to crash an outdoor gathering where she stumbles upon a pair of delicious hunks getting a little hands-on with each otherWarnings: This title contains graphic language and sex.Excerpt: Shaking her head, Meredith untied her apron as she hurried along the tree-lined path. This wasn't the first time she'd forgotten to take it off, making a quick dash to the grocery store. Head in the clouds! At least she'd remembered to put on shoes this time. Blushing, she envisioned the snide grins other customers cast down on her last week, when she got all the way to the checkout before realizing she still had fuzzy bedroom slippers on her feet. Were those supermarket acquaintances sympathetic to her absentmindedness? Hard to say. There was a time, not long ago, when Meredith knew just about everyone in Sheridan, but the times, they were a' changing. "All these newcomers infiltrating our town" her parents grumbled, bowing their heads gravely. Like a timid child, Meredith could never disagree with her stern father and critical mother. With her parents, there was to be no argument. But was there not an exotic appeal to the new families moving into her quiet neighborhood? They came to Sheridan from all corners of the earth and brought with them vibrant clothing and zesty foods. There was a whole big world out there, and more and more of its inhabitants were coming to Sheridan. Slipping her favorite apron the one with pale pink roses and mint green leaves over her head, Meredith folded the garment in half and wrapped it around her arm again and again. June Cleaver would never have made a blunder like this! The TV character was a figure of aspiration. "They don't make 'em like June Cleaver anymore," her father used to say when they watched the black and white re-runs. How proud she felt when her husband Jeff argued there were still rare specimens of that breed in production, citing Meredith herself as an example. Jeff was a darling. He deserved a wonderful birthday gift, if only she could dream one up. Simple was always best. It was the simple pleasures that kept the impending boredom of life at bay: gardening, reading to Thomas and Jane, baking a cake. In fact, this very Saturday morning, Meredith was heading to the store to purchase the makings of a strawberry shortcake for Jeff's birthday. She had the flour at home, but needed fresh strawberries, butter, whipping cream Oh, why hadn't she written a shopping list? Because Jeff had rushed her out the door that morning, without even giving her time to throw a shawl over her shoulders. What good fortune the morning sun shone warm as cashmere.

Gift Baskets: Perfect Presents For All Occasions
In such cases, gift baskets are the perfect choice and there is a wide selection to choose from. They are also an excellent way to show your thoughtfulness and artistic flair.
Gift baskets are always a good choice because you can easily put together gift items which would otherwise be awkward to give as separate gifts. Gift baskets are ideal for all occasions including baby showers, birthdays, Christenings, anniversaries, graduation, etc. You can name any special occasion and there is always a gift basket available to suit that event. There are several types of gift baskets in the market such as baby gift baskets, birthday gift baskets, fruit baskets, gourmet gift baskets, corporate gift baskets, holiday gift baskets, wedding gift baskets, and many more.
You can design and personalise gift baskets to suit your needs. For instance, the old reliable gourmet gift basket is a nice way to present someone special with a sumptuous collection of gourmet chocolates and nuts, coffee, tea and red/white wine. More recently, gourmet gift baskets have been designed to cater to all tastes by including more items like chips, cookies, cheese, jelly, and other mouth-watering surprises. For businesses, corporate gift baskets are a convenient way to let employees know that their hard work is highly appreciated. This type of gift basket is also given to loyal clients to show gratitude for their continuous patronage. For moms-to-be, baby gift baskets are always a hit and are generally well received. They feature a mix of adorable items such as clothing, towels, blankets, bibs, mittens, booties soap and shampoo, as well as toys that the little baby can play with.
Gift baskets are not only a lot of fun to prepare but they are also practical and economical. You just have to take your time to consider the kind of goodies the recipient will appreciate. They can either be ready-made or highly personalised; it's all up to you. However, you must keep in mind that a gift basket does not necessarily need to contain items that are edible. Some people may prefer books, toiletries, health products and other stuff that can put a smile on the recipient's face.
Every gift basket can be fixed up and frilled for any occasion and many online shops offer ‘create your own basket' promos wherein you can literally create that unique present. Moreover, most shops provide free livery as an added feature. So, whether it is a thank you gift for a friend, a get well gift for a colleague or a corporate gift for employees and clients, gift baskets are a perfect way to convey your thoughts and feelings. These gifts are always treasured because the recipient knows the care and thought you put into preparing them.
