But… what if they actually want one of these tally books? They’ll feel truly loved if you add one to their gift bag today-
Even though it’s the middle of winter, the birds don’t seem to mind too much. They can sense that spring is around the corner and are just as eager as we are for the warmer months ahead.

With many businesses and restaurants temporarily (or permanently) closed, I have spent much of my spare time going outdoors with my family. We go on hikes and walks whenever we have the chance. Today is Play Outside Day, so take this as a sign to get out there and enjoy some fresh air. Take a deep breath and let your worries float away.
(And I would suggest taking one of these promotional Maglights with you in case it gets dark while you’re out!)
February is American Heart Month, a month where we all should put a little more time and focus on our heart health and preventing heart disease.
Cardiovascular disease is one of the lead causes of death in the United States, and it is a condition that can be prevented by making more healthy lifestyle choices.
Be physically active (the NIH recommends 30 minutes, 5 days a week)
Eat healthier (increase intake of fruits, veggies, whole grains, while reducing sodium, saturated fat & sugar intake)
Track your heart health stats (talk to your doctor about your blood pressure, weight, and cholesterol goals)
The best way to check off this list and hold yourself accountable? Have your family, friends, and coworkers be your support team. Share healthy recipes at work and have a cookoff competition! See who can log the most steps on your team walks! Get the whole group matching red Maglite flashlights so that you can all go on walks or runs no matter the time of day!
Okay, so January was National Soup Month, but (surprisingly) the people on the holiday scheduling committee decided that soup needed more attention. Today is Homemade Soup Day!
These are my top soups that I like to make from scratch:
Broccoli Cheddar with Sausage
Beef Vegetable
Salmon Corn Chowder
What is your favorite soup to enjoy on a cold rainy day? If you have any leftovers, take some to work in your insulated food jar or travel tumbler:
Across the U.S. and Canada today, people will be eagerly watching the news to see if Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow or not. It’s a funny superstition, but one that has persisted since the mid-19th century.
What’s your vote?
Will he see his shadow, foreshadowing 6 more weeks of winter?
Or will he not see his shadow, bringing on the spring season?
(If he doesn’t see his shadow, that means it’s a cloudy day and will most likely need one of these engraved flashlights) –>
The average person doesn’t typically use an architect scale ruler– we tend to stick to just a regular ol’ ruler or tape measure. To be honest with you, I hadn’t even heard of these unique rulers until just a few years ago!
What do you think their best features are?
Ability to quickly translate the measurements on a blueprint
They are small and portable (ie: pocket-friendly!)
They come in both rigid and flexible styles
Bonusfeature #4: They can be imprinted with your company’s logo!
Did you make a New Year’s resolution to eat healthier? One way to keep this promise up all year long is to start drinking healthy, detoxifying green juices. They will give you much needed nutrients and energy to keep you going all day long.
Top ingredients to include in your recipe:
Dark leafy greens: Spinach or kale
Veggies: Cucumber, celery
Fruits: green apples, avocado
Spice it up with: Lime, ginger, jalapeno
Your first jab at making a green juice might not be perfect, so play with the proportions of the ingredients to make the flavor how you like it. Or, if you don’t want to invest in a juicer, go ahead and grab a freshly made bottle at your local grocery store or coffee shop. Once you find a recipe you like, keep it cold in any of these travel tumblers and go about your day feeling refreshed and healthy!
Is handwriting becoming obsolete? These days, everyone spends so much time typing away on their phones, tablets, and computers. Do we even remember how to hold a pen and write a note? Today, on National Handwriting Day, let’s strive a little harder to start writing more personalized notes.
But even so, how else can you write down a note while you’re on your phone or computer than by grabbing a pen and actually writing it down? What better way to keep your company on your customer’s brain than by giving them personalized pens to keep at their desks.
Anyone who is sitting at their desk will notice those personalized pens with your company logo printed on them. If they need your company’s phone number in a jiffy, the easiest way for them to find it is by grabbing that personalized pen with your phone number already printed on it.
What better way to treat your customers today and stay on their minds all year than with any of these personalized pens.
