No Tricks...Just Fall Treats


Halloween has never been one of my favorite days. Ghosts, goblins and all things ghoulish are not my ideas of fun. I would much rather enjoy a day that won't remind me of scary things. Although, I'm not someone who is fascinated with this day, I'm sure there are many people who do enjoy being tricked or scared out of their pants. That's why Baskets by Consuela doesn't have any tricks, just treats for you or someone you care about treating this Halloween weekend.

Everyday should be a day that we treat all the people in our lives to something. Even if it's something as simple as a phone call to see how they're doing, an email to say "hello" or a handwritten note sent in the mail. Wouldn't it be nice to receive something from the postman other than bills and junk mail? I know how excited I get when I see a piece of mail from a dear friend or relative that they have taken the time to hand write to me. The same can be true when you receive an unexpected package. So whether or not you send something to them on Halloween, take the time to just treat someone to something, no matter how big or small.

A surprise gift basket from Baskets by Consuela will be filled with just treats, no tricks. Have a fun day!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Meets Baskets by Consuela



The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Meets Owner of Baskets by Consuela

This past weekend I attended The Female Success Factor forum in Atlanta. I met one of the stars of The Real Housewives of Atlanta television show, Ms. NeNe Leakes. She is on a tour to promote her new book.

NeNe shared with the audience how she landed the part on the show. She also spoke about some of the challenges she faced as a young mother while raising her oldest son. I found NeNe to be warm, funny and engaging. When I stood next to her to take this photo, she quipped "you're so tiny." My daughter also says that to me whenever I stand next to her. Next time I meet someone taller than me I think I'll stand on a box.

The Atlanta show's ratings are very high compared to the other Housewives series. I'm sure much of its popularity is due to NeNe's quick retorts and to the point remarks. She can certainly hold her own. Let's watch tonight's reunion episode to see what's brewing. No doubt it will return for future episodes. Hopefully, they will have some events that will require gift baskets so Baskets by Consuela can make a guest appearance. I would love to show them how "we think outside the basket." NeNe, Sheree, Kim, Kandi, Dwight....Housewives call me!
