Simple Pleasures Baskets are now featuring handmade add ins with great detail and flavor! My Chai tea mix contains Cardamom, an Indian spice, has a sweet, warm taste and an exotic floral aroma. Most store bought chai tea mixes skip this vital ingredient. My Chai Tea Mix is made with generous amounts of the best spices! Simply add this mix to hot water and enjoy. Well balanced sweetness requires no need to add anything else. So buy some for yourself snuggle in and sip the warm flavors that will soothe your soul or add it to a gift basket for your favorite person! Simple Pleasures is also making and selling hand painted chocolates.   You can order them here separately or add them to a basket.       I make all of them fresh and hand paint all of the details here in my non-pet, non-smoker home! They are solid chocolate. I wrap each individually and add my shop name on the back! They are $4.00 each. When you buy if you need more please let me know and I will make as man

  I am much energized about this Christmas Season. Please join me on a stroll down Candy Cane Lane to The Simple Pleasures Workshop!                   I have been busy planning, building, cutting and wrapping!                                                                                             I     'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.   His eyes -- how they twinkled!   His dimples, how merry! His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry! His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, and the beard on his chin was as white as the snow.           This business doesn't even seem like work.  I love every minute of it.   Putting

Boost Employee Morale

      Boost Employee Morale Do your employees or co-workers drag into work less than excited to be there?   Are they bored with the office doldrums? Weekends are short and vacation time off is limited.   After all, low morale can lead to poor cooperation, low productivity and increased turnover -- and ultimately hinder a business from reaching its goals. Since employee morale can quickly build or break a company's success, effective leaders often keep a close eye on it and enlist simple and creative approaches to strengthen it. http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/220000   Need a simple and creative approach to strengthen it? Think about that!   So what is an office manager or business owner supposed to do if their work space is suffering in this way?   Call Simple Pleasures Gift Creations Simple Pleasures can take care of this entire dire situation for you.   With the SIMPLY BIRTHDAY PROGRAM     Birthday Mug'em

Remember when..... Now I know that I am 38 and a lot of people would say to me, "You are not old enough to say ~remember when,"  with nostalgic whimsy swirling around in my head and all.  But I have seen "Happy Day's!"  Those look like some of the greatest times ever! When The Fonz was cool because he was a rebel, and and the worst thing he ever did was get a "C" in school.                                                                           Things were simpler.  There were no cell phones, apps, facebooks, email, you name it!  We all suffer from over stimulation and can get bogged down at times even though today's technology is absolutely amazing!                 However, maybe simpler times should be on the agenda for all of us sometimes! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy technology as much as the next gal.  If not for technology you would not be reading this right now.  But think a minute about what I am saying. Times whe

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK Taking a much needed break from regular daily life was wonderful! I thought I was just vacationing, but I was wrong! I was on a scavenger hunt!  YES! A hunt for rest and relaxation, or so I thought!  But I was dreadfully wrong!  Can you see what I found instead? On the road to Going To The Sun I found... God? Yes.... But I also found.... MYSELF!!! And I didn't even know that I was missing!!
