In recent years, we have produced gift baskets in any of several different ways: either customers have specified exactly what they want; or they have given us a dollar figure, and we have used our imagination; or they have given us some general hints, and we have used a little less of our imagination.

Now we have given some thought to creating five somewhat distinct gift baskets - all in the customary price range - in order to make the process easier for gift-givers who don't want to do their own research, but who would like to have some reassurance about what the basket will contain. We have made an effort to focus on items that virtually everyone enjoys. Keep in mind that we are still only too happy to assemble what you yourself picture to be a perfect basket.

If you pick one of the five baskets that are pictured/described below, you are welcome to substitute for one item if you think something else may be better.

There are two remaining details: as with all of our orders, there will be a modest shipping charge added to the total (and we are very careful to be fair about that); and please remember to compose your own message to the recipient in the section entitled Special Ordering Instructions or Website Comments (beneath the Shipping Information) when you are ready to check out.
