Halloween is one of the most beloved holidays after Christmas, and for good reason. Who doesn’t love a great Halloween party or a horror movie marathon? Not to mention kids trick-or-treating, their bags filling up with chocolates, candy, and snacks.
For an occasion that is deeply rooted in the concept of community, it can be a little hard to adapt to the new normal that is 2020. But that certainly doesn’t mean that the fun has to stop. Halloween is always special, and this year you can make it a truly indulgent affair with family at home. Skip the grand Halloween events and let the party come to you, with irresistible toffees, truffles and other sweet treats that are perfect for the most chilling night of the year.
Happy Valentine’s Day! If you can, spend some time with that special someone and impress them with a fantastic experience. If you take some time to do a little preparation for this Valentine’s Day, you’re sure to put together something they’ll love. Pairing chocolate with the right wine can bring out the best in both and if you have one in mind, you may want to choose the second to match.
While “the more the merrier” is a fabulous motto for a traditional Christmas gathering, this year “the smaller the safer” is what we all need to remember for the people in our bubble as the big day arrives. Here are a few things to remind you of the magic of Christmas that can be celebrated, even from afar.
5 Mother’s Day Traditions From Around The World
With so many different cultures around the world, there is quite a lot that separates us, but there is even more than unites us. We speak thousands of languages, but a smile is universally understood. We have different goals and ambitions, but we all have hopes and dreams. Mothers raise their children differently depending on location and culture, but all mothers are loving and caring. Every country is unique, so it’s no surprise that Mother’s Day is celebrated a little differently depending on the country. No matter what country your mom is from, Yorkville’s Mother’s Day Gift Baskets are sure to put a smile on her face.

Parents hardly tell their kids to “go outside and play” anymore. In fact, that phrase is in danger of going extinct because kids these days are busy indoors with their phones, tablets and laptops, and you can’t exactly blame them because technology offers a lot to do. However, it’s important to get your kids to go outside and encourage them to engage in some kind of physical activity, because the last thing you want is for your child to have a lifestyle that is similar to a bear in hibernation. Parents: please ensure your child does not contribute to the rising childhood obesity rate as the consequences can range from diabetes to liver disease to bone and joint problems. If you can get your kids outside this Easter, you’ll be well on your way to preventing them from becoming another unfortunate statistic.
Sharing the Perfect Easter Gift

For others, it is a festive occasion that involves spending time with family and friends. Whichever category you fall in, your Easter morning is bound to involve receiving or giving out some special gifts whether it be chocolates, beverages or even gift baskets.
Stephen Hawking passes away at 76, after gifting the world an abundance of knowledge.
When Stephen Hawking was 12 years old, one of his friends bet another child a bag of sweets that Stephen Hawking would never amount to anything. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out who was on the losing side of that bet. Though Hawking certainly was a genius, he gave the following reply when he was asked for his IQ: “I have no idea. People who boast about their IQ are losers.” He did not let his physical handicap stop him from having a sense of humor.
