I love to read up about food and look for new recipes to try and cook at home once in a while. Today, I came across a web site call www.gourmetgiftbaskets.com where you can order your gourmet food by paying with your credit card and have the ordered items delivered right to your door steps. This is what I call convenient shopping and it is suitable for the busy mom executive or manager who hardly has the time to go shopping with a family to take care of.
Right after work, the mom would be too tired to drive to the nearest store for the fresh produce to cook at home. Hence, she would rather pay a bit more to enjoy the convenience of prepared home gourmet food delivered in a basket to her house soon. All this can be done with the click of a mouse and this is the magic of the internet - to make our lives easier and not to complicate them.
We all tend to take this form of instant gratification for granted, but not during our parents' time. The Gen-Y are a lucky lot. They have iPhones, iPads, iTunes, iPods, etc. which their parents were devoid of. We even have microwave ovens that cook food in split seconds.
