The holidays are all around us and I am so happy to be celebrating with daily "gives" most of which are cost free and easy to do.
Today's GIVE:
Today (after the snow stops falling) I am giving the inside and outside of my daugher, Kiersten's, car a thorough cleaning!
Get excited because I am also upping the ante this week and randomly choosing one fan each week for the next 3 weeks from Facebook, the Kitchen Table, Twitter or here on the blog to win an Eat-Clean Diet Starter Kit (Eat-Clean Diet Recharged, Eat-Clean Diet Cookbook and Eat-Clean Diet Companion) all thanks to your giving spirit.
Get giving!
You are awesome!!!... And b/c of this, we have started giving as well. =)
ReplyDeleteToday my give is a custom birthday cake for a child whose parents have been struggling financially.
ReplyDeleteToday my give is dropping off a complete set of pots and pans at the local charity store. They've been asking for non-clothing items for a while.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I love how you have taken the emphasis off what you want for Christmas and put it on how you can bless others this CHristmas!

Today, I gave to myself. I spent the weekend with my daughter while she was in the Critical Care Unit and I woke up exhausted. I refreshed myself with a Bible Study this morning and will be taking my daughter back to the doctor this afternoon. But, now I feel more up to it. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great give-a-way!
....gifts to my community :care packages for seniors that have no Christmas,gifts for Secret Santa's,Pet Shelters and food banks....family and friends we will create memories not buy them.
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome gifts!! We are doing lots of baking around here... and I love being able to bake clean, healthy treats that we all love!!
ReplyDeleteTosca can I call you Santa?! What a wonderful way to inspire a love of eating clean and a great way to kick off the new year to make the BEST you possible! I love your products, your articles and your zest for life! Thank you for being a great role model!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great gift! I love this idea of giving little, personal gifts throughout the season. Time to put my thinking cap on!
ReplyDeleteMy give actually started a few weeks ago. I work near a homeless camp and they are in desperate need. My family and I got ahold of the local news outlet and requested people help as much as possible. The response has been huge, the people have received, blankets, clothes, shoes, tolietries, and enough food to last the winter...
ReplyDeleteHow inspiring is all of this? Amazing to me! Thank you fir paying it forward, something I also love to do. Loving each post. :)
ReplyDeletemy gift today was giving my husband and his family support at his aunt's funeral. such a hard time to lose a family member during the holiday season. may she rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteMy gift today was giving my Father-in-Law a gift of homemade lefse that he loves and grew up with in his family. Shoveleing snow for my in-laws and offering to drive him to his cancer doctor appointments that are 1 hour away from where we live.
ReplyDeletetoday my gift was cooking dinner for my parents: a pureed vegetable soup made with collard greens and broccoli!
ReplyDeleteThat is great news!
ReplyDeleteToday my gift is donating household and clothing items to a family who lost everything in a fire. Thanks for motivating us to do more, Tosca :)
ReplyDeleteMy gift yesterday was spending time with a few women who needed a pick me up..phone sisters!
ReplyDeleteMy eldest daughter needed mom time so we chatted together versus her running off to the coffee shop in search of a friend!
My time is spread thin this way but it is so worth while.
Thank you darling Tosca for being YOU.
That would be amazing, Tosca!! I haven't found you on FB yet so off to do that. My give today is cleaning our home so it looks all cozy for the family tonight...oh and cooking them a healthy dinner. We are having your yummy sweet potato fries!

Tosca,I think It is AMAZING that you take time to give to others. Often people think they don't have the time or resources. If Tosca can do it, we all can!! I am making some clean eats for my sons hockey team this weekend. NO Donuts in our dressing room!!!!
ReplyDeleteToday we went through our closets and got several warm coats, hats, and mitts to donate to our local shelter. It is cold outside and it only took ten minutes of my time to make sure someone else was able to keep warm.
ReplyDeleteNext on the list is a kitchen purge - we have lots of extra soup that can go to the food bank.
