Flowers
Recently I was volunteering my time with the Chamber of Commerce and got to experience first-hand the amazing fresh quality of Marisol's Holtville Floral & Gifts at 571 Pine Avenue.She currently has roses, balloons and stuffed animals for the special person in your life. You will not be disappointed!Sweets
Lovely's Luscious Cupcakes of Holtville is AMAZING! Luke tried the Elvis Cupcake and loved it. One on my list to try is the Moscato cupcakes...hope I can get an order soon. This cupcake is perfect for any occasion that calls for a bubbly drink. If you can get them for Valentine's, for sure place an order soon. They make a mean cupcake. |

Stationary
Our local Parker's Pharmacy has a good selection of conventional cards. They also carry See's Candies.They are located at 102 West 5th street.
Another great selection of really cool cards is I Heart Kid by Minerva Torres, a local artist. She currently has two cards to choose from and both are delightful.
Fine Wine & Dining
The Fields Steakhouse at theBarbara Worth Resort. Mmmm... what can I say about Fields. It's absolutely delicious! Chef Chris is super talented and brings his experience from working at fine venues such as the Hotel del Coronado. I personally loves how he creates a fusion of classic cuisine and combines them with our local palette. They are currently having a special on a four-course meal for $28.95 per person. Sounds of Jazz will also be playing as you enjoy your baby greens salad with dried cherries, cotijia cheese and a sherry vinaigrette.The appetizer is garlic shrimp with black bean puree, cornbread and pico de gallo. The main course is a choice between grilled filet mignon or a grilled lobster tail. If you are a big eater you can have both entrees for an extra ten dollars. Both entrees comes with a baked potato and baby carrots as well as a complimentary glass of champagne. Desert is a lovely Creme Brulee, which is my favorite. Join the event on Facebook and call for a reservation, but hurry they are filling up fast.
