There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

if you can contact small boutique hotels you may get some business as well- the like gifting VIPs. The larger chains have this type of thing in place I think, but smaller places might have a need.

We used to have clients like this all the time when I worked for the gift shop [it was sold when the owner had a baby and the new owner ran it into the ground]. We used to do RI themed baskets for business men, a lot of 50 baskets for every employee of a company, ect. It really sucks when your first real job is your best job ever. I miss it.

Someone please kick me out of here, so I can go pick up my modem and get something for dinner. Since Dave is going to [hopefully] put together my computer tonight, it would be nice if I fed him something.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

sj, have you ever done any networking with event planners? 'Cause it seems like someone planning something like a posh wedding or a convention or a lecture series or something (specially if it's an event where someone corporate is picking up the tab) would be all over your baskets, and would be less likely to fuss about the price.

I know my company gives gift baskets to many VIP people at our annual conference. Corporate meeting planners would be a great networking group.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I saw that on the news this morning. Horrible.
