A Day Off

A Day OffI purchased this gift for our annual Christmas "Steal A Gift" (gift exchange). I couldn't believe how many items were in it and how beautifully it was wrapped! Excellent gift!

Maynard's Wine Gums 215g (7.6 oz) Bag (Pack of 6)

Maynard's Wine Gums 215g BagThese are the true wine gums from my childhood. The green one should be lime flavoured which is where these differ from Gustav's version where the green are apple I believe, not 100% except that they are not lime. These are also more "tender" than the Gustav's wine gums. Shipping was fast given that they were shipped from the UK. It took a week from when I ordered the item from the UK until I received it. Price was good as well compared to the average price here on Amazon when it comes to Maynard's wine gums.

I love Maynard's Wine Gums. These were perfect...fruity and juicy, just as I remembered them from when I traveled to England years ago. I wish they were sold in the U.S. I would purchase from this seller again.

I was very happy with my purchase. The wine gums arrived much faster than estimated which is always a great thing!

Classic Pasta Gift Basket

Classic Pasta Gift BasketI received this basket as a gift. I enjoyed every bit of it; the taste of the pasta is exquisite and the sauce is delicious. And that comes from an Italian. I have since sent this gift basket to friends and relatives.

I sent this to friends in California and they loved it for their housewarming. Who doesn't like pasta? Add some extra sauce yummy.

I ordered this as a birthday gift for my picky, vegetarian, mother. To my surprise she loved it!! Especially the spinach pasta, and the veggie seasoning. She also said the basket the gift came in was very cute. Take it from me, I ordered this hoping to please a very hard to shop for mom, and it was a big hit! Will definetley order from Rossi, and Amazon again.

We got some of the Rossi Pasta as a gift from a friend in Cincinnati, and I think it was this very basket or one very similar, i think perhaps ours didn't have the sauce. The pasta is more important. Prepared dry pasta is something that rarely seems to be that special. This Rossi pasta was a big exception, with a truly deep tonguepalpable flavor seemingly with gorgeous texture. It was not too delicate either, which can mean fussy to prepare. I thought we had finished all of it, and then we just one one left in the cabinet, and my heart leapt, 'cause we will get to eat it this week! That showed me just how much I actually liked it. It is so good that we are thinking of ordering it ourselves, it was so good.

Want Classic Pasta Gift Basket Discount?

This product showed up earlier than what I expected. It is a gift, so I haven't ben able to taste anything yet, but I'm hoping I will when she cooks it for me! The packaging is OK, but the basket is different than what is pictured. It doesn't make it better or worse.

AMELINE TRADITIONAL DIJON MUSTARD WITH WHITE WINE

AMELINE TRADITIONAL DIJON MUSTARD WITH WHITE WINEI was fortunate enough to attend the 30th annual Food & Wine Classic in Aspen, CO this year (by way of volunteering) and the guys at the booth were handing out samples of this mustard and the whole grain version. Both of their mustards are definitely a worthwhile product with excellent flavor, texture and quality. On the salami they had, or on the cracker, the mustard stands out as much higher quality as compared to the normal brands most of us would purchase, it is worth its price, especially if you are able to get it with their discount code. I was given a sample of the Whole Grain mustard, I have yet to open it, but in the mean time I bought 2 more jars of it from Amazon with the coupon. I love a nice whole grain mustard and a good dijon mustard and I usually go to the cheap brnads you find at your every day supermarket, but after trying this at the classic I'm sold on getting a higher quality product that has more flavor and tastes like it is worth every penny over getting a cheap imitation. I went back many times for samples at the event because it is just so good! It blows all other mustards out of the water! THANK YOU for the sample and for the coupon code! You guys rock!

Was disappointed by this mustard. Since this disappointment I discovered Trader Joe's authentic French country mustard from Dijon. It is what the French put on meats unless you ask for something else. It is like nothing else and I have been trying to find this since my school days in Paris.

Assam Tea Bag Squeezer

Assam Tea Bag SqueezerThis is a great product it is long enough to reach into a large cup and pull out the wet tea bag then you can squeeze out all the flavor left in the bag! No dripping. I will always own one!

I bought to use in my office to remove tea bags from the mug and voila, it does just what it is supposed to do.

I ordered two of these one to have at home and one for work. I enjoy drinking tea but hate burning my fingers when the tea bags have to be squeezed I don't have to worry about that any more.

Mrs Bridges Port Wine Jelly, 7 Ounce

Mrs Bridges Port Wine Jelly, 7 OunceI could barely taste the port, and the sugar was overpowering. However, I am not a huge sugar eater so for someone who is, this might be satisfactory or even great!

Have been searching the supermarkets for wine jelly and nobody in my area seems to carry it. Saw it on Amazon and ordered it and was very pleased with the product. Lovely flavor. I have it on a bagel spread first with cream cheese and then spread the wine jelly on top of the cream cheese. Lovely breakfast with a great cuppa coffee!!
