Louisiana Candy Company is a gift-giving confectionery brand specializing in handcrafted pralines and gourmet sweets made with quality ingredients like toasted nuts, pure cane sugar, rich butter, and vanilla. They are a woman-owned small business featured as a contestant on Magnolia Network’s Silos Holiday Baking Competition with Joanna Gaines. These pralines are known for their smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture and bold Louisiana-inspired flavors, including Classic Pecan, Walnut, Chocolatey Mississippi Mudslide, and Toasted Coconut Macadamia. We got the Classic Pecan, and they are soooo good! It is hard to just eat one *wink*

Hey Mary Jane offers expertly crafted microdose gummies with cannabinoids, adaptogens, and nootropics, formulated to fit seamlessly into your day and elevate life's moments. They offer Fit - Wellness Gummy, Groove - Focus Gummy, Soothe - Relief Gummy, and Drift - Sleep Gummy. They come packaged in the perfect size tin for storage. I was pleasantly surprised that these gummies actually taste good. I have had some CBD/THC gummies that just don't taste good, but these do, and they are easy to take, and they work!

Food for Thoughts Cards is a greeting card company that gives back. With the purchase of each bread-outlined greeting card, they donate the cash equivalent of one PB&J to an organization that feeds the hungry! The backstory is simple...For twelve years, the owner packed a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to give to a hungry or homeless person when they took the train from New Jersey to Penn Station, NY, each week, headed to New York University, where they taught a course. As they walked downtown, they gave the sandwich to someone in need. Now through Food for Thoughts Cards, they have donated over 118,000 PB&J's to those in need across the US - and counting!
