And it all started there. Mia changed the face of gift baskets as we know them to address a need she saw lacking in the “gift basket” arena. She wanted a special gift for her own clients at the time and realized that every gift basket out there was sorely lacking. She found one little company that had a good clientele, a hard working owner, and a pretty good concept and bought the business. She had an idea of what a top-notch basket should deliver and set out to create the one she had hoped to order for herself…and the rest is history!
Since 1969, the holiday has been observed on the third Monday in April, providing a three-day long weekend. Previously, it had been designated as April 19 in observance of the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles of the American Revolutionary War. It is also a school holiday for many local colleges and universities, both public and private.
The Boston Marathon is run on Patriots’ Day every year so many Bostonians know the holiday as “Marathon Monday”. Maine’s oldest road race, the Boys and Girls Clubs Patriots’ Day 5-Miler, is held in Portland.
The Boston Red Sox have traditionally been scheduled to play at home in Fenway Park on Patriots’ Day every year since 1959. They were postponed due to bad weather in 1959, 1961, 1965, 1967, and 1984 and did not play in 1995 during the players’ strike. Since 1968 the games have started early in the morning around 11:00 AM. In 2007, the game had a scheduled start of 10:05 AM, but was delayed due to rain until 12:18 PM. The early start to these games usually resulted in the game ending just as the marathon is heading through Kenmore Square. However, since 2007 the marathon has started between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM, resulting in the racers going through Kenmore towards the middle of the Red Sox game.
Occasionally, the U.S. federal Tax Day falls on this day or the preceding weekend, causing the federal income tax return filing deadline to be extended by one day for the residents of Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Upstate New York, Vermont, and the District of Columbia. This is because the IRS processing center for these areas is located in Andover, Massachusetts[4]. In 2007, this extension was granted to the entire country because the District of Columbia holiday, Emancipation Day, coincidentally fell on the same day.[5] In addition to these extensions, in 2007 due to a nor’easter (which also forced the first-ever cancellation of the annual 6 a.m. battle re-enactment on Lexington Green), certain states were granted an additional two days for taxes, bringing the deadline to April 19. Those who filed under this extension had to write “April 16 Storm” on the return.[6]
Farfalle Gift Baskets are really the art of the owner. Handmade one by one, each gift is created for the recipient. Fresh fruit and flowers are bought, and items carefully chosen to make the most aesthetic presentation possible for whatever the need. Each basket that is made for sympathy, for a birthday, for a fun holiday such as St. Patrick’s Day or for Easter or Mother’s Day… Is a basket that will have the person’s interests and hobbies included in the design. It is all very personal for the sender and the receiver. No cookie cutter baskets - though some standard designs are always available, we prefer to make each gift truly a special experience.
