  My "share" today is a photoof our friend Isabelle's Valentine works of art. Artist Isabelle's "share" includes her creativity in shapes, textures, colors, media, and a mini gift for her classmates. With this posting, we celebrate the natural gifts of our children, and an exceptional appreciation and encouragement from Isabelle's mother! Thank you, Nancy! "Happy Valentine's Day! Very proud of The Kid for cutting out all 24 hearts for her classmates, taping on the temporary tattoos, and stamping "FROM"...all by herself." Children will not remember you for the material things you provided but for the feeling that you cherished them. Richard L. Evans 612.325.3267 |

 EcoFillIt’s not pretty. It’s beautiful. Our Footprint* In our home, we’re recyclers. Cardboard is flattened and bundled. Milk cartons are rinsed out and separated from soup cans. Pop (that’s Minnesotan for “soda”) cans, though, get special attention. They’re crushed down to a fraction of their original size and placed into a recyclable garbage bag. My husband folds his can-recycling trips into a well-planned errand day, and never fails to let me know upon his return that he not only has recycled the bags of pop cans, he has also earned $3.50, which “will pay for at least eight days of my (coupon-purchased, gas-station) morning coffee!” Our cupboards and closets hold what we need and use. Regular donations are deposited (“recycled”) at our local Goodwill location. Recycling has become an ordinary part of our household routine; our intention is to contribute, in any small way, to reducing collective energy consumption. (Win-Win: Yes, I admit that I do appreciate organized spaces!)  Peanuts, Bubble Wrap and RibbonsLassothemoon Gift Baskets, now in its eighth year, has taken incremental steps to integrate a recycling program into our operations. Our shipping “peanuts” are made from biodegradable cornstarch. Other peanuts, when received from in-coming shipments, are colorized and reused when our gift baskets are packed and shipped. Likewise, plastic bubble wrap we receive is recycled and used in securing gift baskets, in preparation for shipping. Beautiful little pieces of treasured ribbon as well as fanciful papers are also “recycled,” stored, and used as gift basket enhancement. The Unsung We are proud to announce that the gift basket “fill” which holds Lassothemoon Gift Baskets products together within the finished gift basket is EcoFill, both a recycled and recyclable paper product. Our intention at Lassothemoon Gift Baskets is that every single recipient of a courier-delivered or shipped gift basket from Lassothemoon Gift Baskets will enjoy the originally-designed gift basket and its theme, tastes, aromas, bottles, candles, and candies, cheeses, crackers, gourmet treats, and other surprises. We hope, too, that after the contents of the gift basket are enjoyed, the container will be repurposed in the home or donated, continuing it s journey. This unsung basket fill that has kept the gift basket’s beautiful and delicious contents safe and secure, too, may be recycled. Perhaps its recycling journey will find a new purpose in a Sunday newspaper, into shopping bags, or even, if it’s lucky, once again fashioned into gift basket fill, with a chance to sing once again. Beautiful. 612.325.3267 |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Cher Wolf, Principal Lassothemoon Gift Baskets Phone: 612.325.3267 Fax: 612.354.7742 Lassothemoon Gift Baskets, Premier Gift Basket Service for Minnesota’s Twin Cities Metro Area, Has Launched Its Halloween 2011 Gift Basket Collection. Minneapolis, MN--October 12, 2011--Lassothemoon Gift Baskets today announced the launch of its Halloween 2011 online gift baskets, “From Sweet to Scary,” for local courier delivery to Minnesota’s Twin Cities Metro area as well as for shipping to America’s contiguous 48 states. Lassothemoon Gift Baskets designs, constructs, delivers and ships its gift baskets from its studios in Minneapolis. Holiday shoppers will instantly appreciate the easy navigation, unique and original designs, and easy ordering from www.lassothemoongiftbaskets.com. Gift baskets “For Any Reason and For Any Season”: Lassothemoon Gift Basket online shoppers will find original-designed gift baskets for specific holidays, and for any event or celebration. According to Cher Wolf, “Minnesota-themed gift baskets are extraordinarily interesting to create, because we integrate Minnesota-made products, from Minnesota Native-American mini- birch bark canoes to locally-made chocolates. We’re always searching for new and artistically-presented representations of the State of Minnesota to include in our unique gift baskets.” Ms. Wolf, Designer and Owner at Lassothemoon Gift Baskets, is a graduate of the University of Minnesota, College of Design. Ms. Wolf explained that “Lassothemoon” is borrowed from her favorite movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” The intention of Lassothemoon Gift Baskets, according to Ms. Wolf, is to offer the “gift” of a mini-vacation for the personal or corporate customer as she or he navigates through the website, and then in the delivery of the chosen gift basket. The “gift” is shared by both the sender and recipient. Lassothemoon Gift Baskets anticipates an early November, 2011 launch of its Holiday 2011 gift basket collection. ### |

Lady Madonna recently voiced her dislike for the hydrangea when a fan offered her the flower. To fans of the vintage "It's a Wonderful Life," the flower is magical, with an indescribable aura ("a field of subtle, luminous radiation surrounding a person or object..."-Wikipedia). It's a Wonderful Life, 1946 George Bailey, to Mary: "What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary."
Mary: "I'll take it! Then what?"
George Bailey: "Well, then you can swallow it, and it'll all dissolve, see... and the moonbeams would shoot out of your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair..."
Mary, temporarily sentenced to the hydrangea bushes: magic. Lassothemoon. (We're all about the hydrangea.) 612.325.3267 |
