More Holiday Gift Ideas from Harry & David
Friday, November 25, 2005

In another blog, I spoke about the fruit of the month club that Harry & David offers as well as the chocolate and bakery items. I mentioned that you will easily be able to find a gift for everyone on your "to buy for" list.

Another thing you can do by shopping at Harry & David (found at harryanddavid.com) is to help yourself prepare a very special holiday dinner. The selections are incredible no matter what you plan to serve. Be sure to give everything in your order enough time to arrive, however. If you are not sure, speak with their customer service.

As one example, you can order a "Fresh Seafood Feast" that includes stone crab claws, jumbo shrimp, and Caribbean lobster tails. The crab is already cooked and ready to eat and the shrimp are ready to cook. The food arrives in an insulated container, already chilled. If you don't do much cooking or the thought of preparing a seafood feast frightens you, don't worry because these orders come with instructions for preparation!

Other holiday meal choices from Harry & David include Lobster Pot Pies, Seafood Cakes, Cheese Torta, Chesapeake Crab Cakes, Steak and Lobster Feast, Smoked Alaska Salmon, Wild Salmon Fillets, and the more traditional ham and turkey selections. For a totally different dessert treat, try the Australian Apricots that have been dipped in chocolate.

Some of the sections you can choose from for gifts or your special meal include:

Hor d'Oeuvres
Poultry Entrees
Beef Entrees
Ham and Pork Entrees
Specialty Meats & Sausages
Salmon and Seafood

There are also selections in this section that are sold in bulk for parties, other things that are kosher foods, and still others that are prepared with special diet needs in mind.

After you have dealt with your gift giving and holiday meal preparation, you still are not finished with Harry & David. Your holiday decorating can get a boost here, too. When you find the "floral gifts" section, there will be numerous choices. Get a Christmas tree, roses, flowering plants, centerpieces or a wreath, bonsais, or many other things in the floral "aisle" of the store.

Harry & David, in addition to the Fruit of the Month club, offer a variety of floral clubs also. With the Blooms for all Seasons club, your gift recipient will be receiving the following throughout the year:

(1) December: Tea-for-One Set with Roses and Chocolates
(2) January: Fragrant Mixed Hyacinths
(3) February: Red Mini Rose
(4) March: Pink Calla Lily
(5) April: Fragrant Gardenia
(6) May: Lavender Mini Rose
(7) June: Hot Pink Hibiscus
(8) July: Yellow Crossandra
(9) August: Purple Lisianthus
(10) September: Fragrant Freesia
(11) October: Fragrant Spanish Lavender
(12) November: Carnival Amaryllis

If after all these ideas, you still have someone on your list that needs a gift, Harry & David also offers items for home decor including tableware, home accents, candles and other lighting, cookie jars, and much more.

One last idea for a gift is Harry & David Royal Riviera (r) Pears. The first shipments of these delicious pears were sent out more than seventy years ago in 1934! Check out their website for fruit, fruit and cheese combinations, vegetables, and even organics fruits and vegetables.
