Hey-o and Happy Wednesday! After I posted what was going into the baskets for the babes, I got a couple of questions about if Zach and I did baskets. While this is certainly not necessary, I happen to have a teeny bit of my mother in me (ha!) and I love any opportunity to spoil my hubby.  One thing I think is important to mention is that while the reason behind it is so important, I think it is more important to be thoughtful in your gifts than to do something crazy. So without further ado, here are some things that will be in Zach’s basket!!

 

1.  Fricker’s Gift Cards: This is where Zach and I had our first date and we both love to rehash that first 4 h o u r meal!
2. Lime-a-Rita: Seeing as this is Zach’s favorite drink, I like to empty the box and use the box as the ‘basket’.  I always try to put a couple in the fridge in the morning so he has one he can enjoy for the day 🙂
3. Laffy Taffy: Nothing better than straight sugar for a Type 1 diabetic… always good for emergencies!
4. Nuts: Ay, I think this man would eat a full can every day if he could… These snack packs make the perfect addition to an Easter basket or stuffed in an egg!Shirt: Zach LOVES a new shirt for work or to wear out… These are an easy transition into spring!
5. Shirt: Zach LOVES a new shirt for work or to wear out… These are an easy transition into spring!
6. Slim Jims: Go-to snack.  Easy  to put in the car too!
7. Lottery Tickets: This is just a win-win…do I need to go on?
8. The girls’ handprints: This daddy and his baby girls… goodness.  He couldn’t be any prouder of them and their handprints are a keepsake he treasures 🙂

 

Need some other ideas?:

• Favorite candy (let’s be hoenst, is it really an Easter basket without?!)
• Snack-size food
• Magazines
• Local sports event game tickets
• Gift card to where you had your first date
• Written reasons you love him inside an egg
• Beer
• Mini liquor bottles
• Bottle openers
• Movie
• Book
• Seasonings
• Flashlights
• Sauces
• Grilling supplies

Countdown is on to one of my favs! I am still working to get our menu figured out for the big day, so if you have any suggestions, shoot them my way!

Question: What are you including in Easter baskets for your loved ones?!

Disclosure: I have NOT in any way been compensated for items in this post.  These are purely items that I love (and Zach!) and will be including in our Easter baskets!
