Oh Nuts Blog

So I've been spending some precious time cruising around the web, looking to see what people have up their sleeves for Father's Day. I was really surprised at my findings, to say the least. I mean, I thought that everyone was clear-cut on what to get for their fathers, grandfathers, father-in-laws and husbands! But, alas! All I hear is whining and complaining that they're stumped. Last year they got the t-shirt with the typical slogan #1 Dad, or the subscription to Dad's World, or a mug with the cute scribbles of a 3-year old.
So I have the answer!
Now tell me which guy doesn't love to munch, whether he's sitting at the TV watching the sports or hunched over the desk at the computer working the night away? Personally, being that my husband loves to eat, (which doesn't?) I wouldn't have given a second thought as to what to get him. [Though it's a bit early for him to be receiving Father's Day Gifts (he's not a dad yet...till August!)]
I would buy nuts, chocolates, dried fruit and candy and well, anything that works for the munchies! Place a bowl of Turkish pistachios in front of an occupied male, and believe me you won't stop hearing the crunch of the nuts, the spitting of the shell and the oh, so sweet request for more! Try sunflower seeds, watermelon seeds, pumpkin seeds, any kind of pistachios or nuts and I guarantee you that he'll be satisfied.
I would also get a delicous array of candies and nuts (depending on how health-minded he is) in a cute dish or in something sentimental that has some meaning. This year, be unique and checkout www.ohnuts.com for exquisite Father's Day Gifts. Believe me, you won't be disappointed!

So summer's here and my relatives are packing their kids off to camp. It's the first time my 7-year old cousin Jenna will be going to camp. Believe me, she's so excited and not at all nervous, as opposed to her mother Leslie! For the past 5 years she's sent 13-year old Lauren to this wonderful all girls camp. Last year, they had a special weekend for siblings who wanted to checkout the camp and Jenna absolutely LOVED it! The activities, the counselors and the general camp atmosphere. She couldn't stop talking about being able to attend the camp the following year. Now that it's finally here, she's excitedly packing and shopping with her mom. Her mom is apprehensive of her being homesick but she insists she will be fine. Last year, I sent Lauren a gift to camp or a camp care package and it contained a whole assortment of delicious fun candy.
The only problem was, I didn't know that it wasn't permitted to send foodstuff to camp, and I did. I didn't get her into trouble but she was told to let everyone know it's part of the rules. Too bad, at least she enjoy the candy! So this year, I'm not sending to camp but I will give Lauren AND Jenna gifts before they go to camp so they can enjoy sweets on the bus TO camp and sneak it into their bunk!! I hope I don't get them in trouble! So I came up with a few choices from www.ohnuts.com website and I will choose from one of these camp gift packs!
