We asked the following bloggers to send some Little Somethings and then tell us and the world what they thought. The reviews are in, and they're positive! As an added bonus, each blog is hosting it's own giveaway. So if you hurry on over to these sites, you might win a FREE Little Something:
"Great thoughts speak only to the thoughtful mind, but great actions speak to all mankind." -- Theodore Roosevelt
"I don't have a grand master plan, but I try to be thoughtful when I can and also silly. It's part of the fun." -- Josh Charles
"Stop the habit of wishful thinking and start the habit of thoughtful wishes." -- Mary Martin
Think, think, think your thoughtful thoughts. Then act on them. This inspirational moment is brought to you by Appreciation Celebration Cake, a Little Something that says, "I think you're wonderful!"

To our long-lost friends and new visitors, I have two things to say: 1. We're back! After a loooong two years without many blog posts, it probably seemed like we were on auto-pilot some of the time. It's true, the owners were all busy with other projects and not too much new was happening for awhile. Steady but not exciting... But now, we're BACK. We're adding new items, new features and AMAZING conveniences for those of you who send a dozen or two Little Somethings a month. 2. Thank you! Some of you, our dear customers, have continued to use and appreciate our service even when we weren't doing all we could to show you our appreciation. Well, we're BACK and excited to serve you, get to know you better, and help you delight your clients, friends or whoever you choose to send a Little Something. Talk soon, Matt Garber (866) 798-4432 x5
A Little Something Special for Our Veterans (11/09/2012)
Here at LittleSomething.com, we want to say thanks. Thank you to the men and women who have served and who continue to serve in our military...
Now through Monday (11/12/12), we are offering a Veterans Day Weekend Discount. A number of our Little Somethings are marked down to only $8. As an added bonus, for ANY orders placed on the site from now through Monday night, we will donate 10% towards free Little Somethings for U.S. soldiers overseas.
I'm serious. You could send this moose to a variety of people for a variety of occasions with a variety of fun messages:
To your best friend who lives far, far away -- I moose you so much! Wait a minute. Did I say moose? I meant I miss you so much. Sometimes I get confused without you here to keep me straight...
To your office secretary who's famous for her sugar cookies -- You outdid yourself at the company picnic this year! Here's a new cookie cutter for your collection. It's just a little something to let you know that your hard work around here is very much appreciated. Thank you!
To your Godchildren who love a good storybook -- We already know what happens when you give a moose a muffin. Wonder what would happen if we gave a moose a cookie. Want to find out??
To your fishing buddy who also happens to enjoy cooking and baking -- Canada, here we come!! Hey man, you making cookies for the trip? No? Then forget about it. You can't come. Oh alright, I guess you can come...IF you promise not to fall out of the boat this time!
To your neighbor who could really use a pick-me-up -- Sorry to hear about your recent lay off. Let's get together and bake and cry and talk and commiserate and make plans for where to go from here...
To your mom who doesn't hear from you nearly enough -- Dear Mom, I love you more than you will ever know. And it's not just because you make the best cookies West of the Mississippi!
-- These moose cookie cutter ideas are brought to you by: Brooke Meadows who strongly believes that a Little Something can say so very much

The Joy of Unsolicited Praise (01/21/2010)
We got a super nice email this afternoon from one of our newest customers. She's an executive life coach, management consultant, mediator, author, corporate trainer and motivational speaker. And today she uplifted and inspired our work here at LittleSomething.com! What I mean by that is, we are pleased to be the cause of so much joyfulness...
"I'm loving this site and very happy that I came across it...As a career life coach, it is also my job to brighten the day of my clients and pretty much everyone else within touching or clicking (I live on Facebook and Twitter) distance. I look forward to sending Little Somethings and spreading the joy amongst my business associates, friends and family. Hoorah!"
