Nonnie Waller's For My Birthday


Have you ever had a treat from Nonnie Waller's?
It's a high-end, online store that features ultra-
luxury cakes, chocolates and flowers.
It happens to be a favorite of celebrities like
Ellen Degeneres, Tom Cruise, Paula Deen, and Oprah.
It also happens that Taylor (yes, my Taylor! ha)
is their Digital Media Consultant!
Fun job, huh?  So visit their Facebook page here
and give it a 'like' for him, won't you?
They have specials and discounts, so you might be
tempted to have a treat delivered to someone you love! :)
You can check out their website here.


When this box was delivered for my birthday, I was
pretty sure I knew who it was from! 


Their cakes and flowers come like this...
a beautiful monogrammed draw-stringed bag...


Inside the bag is a fancy hat box!


And inside the box is a lovely pound cake with a
beautiful nosegay of fresh flowers in the center!



Isn't that cool?


Chocolate Espresso Pound Cake.
It's awesome.  SO moist!




And the flowers are just beautiful.
I hear they are to stay fresh for weeks!
I'm enjoying the bouquet on my desk!

So, thanks Taylor and Lauren for the very fun
and delicious birthday gift!
I'm living just like a celebrity! ha.

    4. haha...yeah....a few times a treat will make it's way home. I've had their truffles (amazing) and their 'all day turtles'....a turtle so big it will take you all day to eat it. I certainly couldn't afford them as an every day treat...but it's fun for once in a while. lol....

    1. I'm thinking it might be fun to be the trick-or-treat candy in the box! It does look halloweenish! The bag would be great for traveling. Maybe I'll put in in with my lingerie while I decide. :)

    1. He has several contracts in our area...even the two local hospitals! Such a good fit for him. It also looked great on his resume to get his full time job, which he starts next week! We're so excited for him!

  20. What a lovely gift and so beautifully presented - reminded me of the bit in the film Love Actually where the husband goes to buy a present and is asked if he wants it gift wrapped - and boy how it gets wrapped. This is much more stylish than that though! Happy Birthday if I missed it before!

  22. Dear Betsy, a dream of a cake! And so beautifully presented! And I guess that your son Taylor doing so well is another big present to you. Congratulations to that, too! I checked his website for the extraordinary cake makers and great compliments to your son!
    Love
