Don’t Forget to Say Thanks (Plus, a Giveaway!)

By Mrs. Fields

Can it really be that Christmas was last week? I’ll be honest here–I love these few slow days in between Christmas and the New Year. It’s such a contrast from the hustle and bustle of the previous weeks. My favorite thing to do on a quiet, post-Christmas afternoon is to write out Thank You notes for the special, thoughtful gifts I’ve received.

And for those certain gifts, those “Oh, you shouldn’t have!” gifts, I love to send a sweet package of my freshly-baked treats. I love the idea of sending an unexpected surprise along with my heartfelt thanks.

If you were the recipient of an Oh-you-shouldn’t-have gift, I recommend sending this adorable gift filled with 24 Nibblers® bite-sized cookies.

The best Christmas gift I got this year was a GPS system for my car because I get lost all the time and now have an easier time finding places. I’ll always be able to get where I am going now and can track down all of Mrs. Fields stores for cookies.

I received a lovely heart charm from my husband to go with the bracelet he gave me years ago. It was a very sentimental and thoughtful gift.

Happy New Year!
