The May 2008 edition of Real Simple features a Give Simple item! On page 67 of the new issue, on newsstands now, Real Simple shows our cookbook kit as one of four Mother’s Day Gifts. Real Simple says, "Whip up a unique book of beloved recipes with Pressto's Make Your Own Cookbook. Use the software to type in recipes for Grandma's sticky buns and Uncle Fred's fried zucchini, then print on the included paper. To Buy: http://www.givesimple.com%22/



Our team of new product raters and our customers liked this item from the start, but when one of our favorite magazines recommends our products, we really have to do a happy dance!



This is a great item for Mother's Day, of course. But it also makes a great bridal shower gift when friends and family each donate a fail safe recipe.



It's also a great gift for anyone who loves to cook. Most cooks gather recipes constantly, and it's not easy to keep it all together. Including a gift of your time to help download recipes is a great way to make this an even more special gift.



I am working very closely with Pressto, the maker of the item, to make sure we don't run out. Our conference table is completely covered with cookbooks right now, and premade boxes are stacked 9 feet high in the shipping department as we try to stay on our standard of shipping all orders within 24 hours M-F!



We love it when we are this busy with a special item, it's the most fun part of what we do.

Mother's Day is coming, and Give Simple has the absolute BEST giftts! We really pride ourselves on having terrific gifts, not the same old stuff.
For those who plan ahead, order the most fabulous personalized handmade Jewels, custom Metalgirl bangles, or Kathy Lo photo necklaces. Now that's an impressive gift -- one you had custom made for Mom.
Wondering what to get Mom? Check out our Top 10 Mother's Day gifts, at the top of our Gift Ideas feature. There are a few classics, like Pine Cone Hill robes, and a gift set of Niven Morgan's top three Gold products -- perfume, body lotion and hand lotion. But most of our ideas are a little more unusual. Handmade Jewelry is always a hit, so we have three great recommends there. Make Your Own Cookbook is a really innovative and fresh NEW idea that will be featured in Real Simple's Mother's Day Gift Guide, as well as several newspapers. Mudlark's Beautiful Office is another NEW idea. (look for their new Spa Bath sets, too!) Speaking of Spa, our new Fraiche Lavender or Spa Splash soap plus bath swizzles is a luxurious gift, comes in a pretty ready to give organza bag. Peace Love Mom has tons of new t-shirt designs. Murval handbags are always a popular gift. We sugegst the quilted patent tote with camellia flower pin.
We also have three Gift with Purchase items for Mother's Day, just the Give Simple way of giving you a little something extra. Check out the Peace Love Mom tote bag, the Mudlark Soap, and the Allison Dayton bracelet that you can pick up for FREE, all while ordering a gift you needed anyway. (or when you pick up a few things for yourself!)
If you will be receiving a Mother's Day gift, don't forget our fantastic Wish List feature! Pick out some graet gifts for yourself, and email it to your kids or your husband. If you pick several items, you can even be surprised on Mother's Day.

Be happy, Give Simple!
