ProFlowers Tealiscious Basket Review & Giveaway

**** Congrats to Steph! E-mail me your info amd I’ll pass it along to the ProFlowers rep!****

The kind folks at ProFlowers sent me a Tealicious birthday basket to review, and have generously offered to provide one for one of you!  Fun stuff!

Their shipping was so fast that I actually received my basket the day before the e-mail said I would. I don’t know how often that happens, but I’ll take early over late any day, wouldn’t you?

I enjoyed a morning cup of tea with several of my early-risers this morning.  I probably should’ve saved the cookies for an afternoon treat, but maybe, just maybe, it made our special time a wee bit more special to get a sugary cookie at a time when we normally wouldn’t…

This sweet little basket came with 10 English Afternoon inidividual tea bags, as well as an assortment of 6 fruited black tea bags- I received 2 apple, 2 lemon & lime, 1 peach, and one mango.  My children scrambled to get the fruity flavor of their choice while I enjoyed a warm cup of the English Afternoon.  It reminded me of the days when I used to drink a lot more tea… there was a moment of nostalgia.

Back to the basket- it also comes with a sweet little ceramic Tea Caddy that my 7 & 9 yr olds declared was simply beautiful, 5 Honey Sticks, and a little package of Key Lime Cookies that is just big enough to fall in love and start scouring the internet for recipes so you can attempt to recreate them soon…

I’ve known about ProFlowers for years, but had never been to their site and I was rather amazed at the choices- they offer so much more than flowers!  Not there there’s anything wrong with flowers- I’ve received ProFlowers roses before, they were big and healthy, beautiful, and long-lasting, really, they were so special.  They have flowers and live plants and candy and fuit and nuts and teddy bears- really, like I said, so much more than flowersAny of these baskets would make a great gift for at least one person on your list.

I’m excited to get the chance to give one of these baskets (or a birthday basket of similar value if tea’s not your thing) to one of you!

I didn’t know they did more than flowers either. Tea is a lovely thing, and Key Lime cookies too… Yummy! I am a daily orange tea drinker, but I like to try other kinds too. Plus, even though I only have one daughter, that basket looks like a reason to dress up, get out china cups, and have an afternoon tea party!
