On the Third day of Christmas Santa Athenas and The Mason Jar brought to me: A Bare Foot Venus Body and Skincare Basket ($150 value!)

I’m sure that if you live in the White Rock/South Surrey area you have heard about the famous “The Mason Jar”. This store it’s a must stop if you are visiting White Rock! The owner Cathy, she is a mother, and a well-known entrepreneur that carries the coolest brands in town!

We are giving away a barefoot venus gift basket, which I love because on their website it says they are not tested in animals! Another bonus point: they are local! Perfect to treat yourself with high-quality bath and body products! If you decided to pay a visit to their store Here are my top picks for Christmas presents:

1- Christmas Decor:

Obsessed with all of their Christmas decor! These little mice and that pillow tho! I’m dreaming that one day, when Matias becomes 3, I’ll be able to have my dream house, and I’ll have this pillow in my living room!

House Decor:

How pretty and rustic is this? Small touches, big differences!

Local made Soap:

I didn’t know they made their own soap! How cool is this? I don’t have a bath in my house, so I’m always looking for a good soap to relax! These will be great to add to any gift!

Clothes

I haven’t seen a jacket that compares with this one! Seriously! How feminine, cool, modern is? This is on my wishlist for sure (I hope Francisco would read this post lol)

On the second day of Christmas Santa Athenas and Ralph’s farm market brought to me.. A Christmas Dinner! ($161 Gift card!)

Ralph’s if a local, family own business located in Langley that carries my favourite brands! They have so many selections from organic, gluten free, dairy free, natural health and more. I have to say, they have the BEST apples in town! Why choose local? The money stays local and most importantly, you get the best quality food because is FRESH.

These are items I selected as must-haves for your dinner, to give you some ideas:

Krause Berry Farms – Apple Pie and Brussel Sprouts:

If you live in the Fraser Valley I’m sure you have heard about this farm and their pie! It is produced locally in their harvest kitchen and it is one of our favourites! They also produced some delicious fruits and veggies, and I selected their Brussel sprouts to add extra nutrition to our dinner.

Chinese Mandarin Oranges

I wanted to add something sweet without sacrificing your health!

Ralph’s Turkey Mild Italian Sausages

These are made right here! in Ralph’s Meat Shoppe! They are Gluten Free, MSG Free, Nitrate Free – get them fresh or frozen. They used locally sourced meat and are the same meat they have for sale in their display case!

Johnston’s

Fresh Local Quality, based in Chilliwack, work with Western Canadian Farms (Gluten Free).

Sunrise Farms Young Turkey

What’s a Christmas dinner without a turkey? And how awesome that you’ll get it local!

POM Pomegranates

The “Cadillac” of pomegranates! Yes, please!

European Cocktail Wieners

A must-have for our holidays.

Marzipan Stollen

A Dutch favourite, loved by many of their European customers!

Glenwood Valley Farms Cranberry Sauce

Locally produced right on their farm in Abbotsford – freshly made with simple ingredients. The Farm is run by a sweet lady named Bernice, she works with many Mexican workers. Bernice always expresses her joy in working with these amazing people and says they couldn’t do what they do without them.

I don’t know you Bernice but I already love you!
