As I’ve said before, if you purchase subtle pieces, seasonal jewelry can be used all year round. I recently found this site:
There are several beautiful necklaces — and gifts for men, too!
A necklace is inexpensive to mail, which is great news if your missionary is serving overseas, but beware of investing in an expensive gift is there’s a chance the package won’t arrive.
For anyone whose missionary will be in the MTC for St. Patrick’s Day, you might consider this option: Four Leaf Clover Cookies from Called2Serve.com
I have no experience with this site, but I’d love to hear feedback from those who have use it in the past–any good?
I was so excited when I found this! Bath & Body Works makes Clover Lotion ~ how perfect for St. Patrick’s Day, or anytime during Spring. Here’s the page where you can order online: Clover and Aloe Scents
Whether your missionary is serving in the next county or a separate continent, breakfast cereal is one food that can definitely make the trip. For St. Patrick’s Day, you can’t miss with Lucky Charms — every kid knows this is one of the special cereals that only surfaced at Grandma’s house. But as one blogger recently learned, they’re good for you, too! You can send a regular-sized box, or a couple single-serving packs. Be sure to include some green plastic bowls and spoons!
Tip: you can visit the General Mills website for coupons.
I love this album. My mother-in-law, who sings in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, gave this album to me for Christmas last year, and I have listened to it hundreds of times since then. I will never tire of hearing it! For those of you unfamiliar with the artist Sissel, you can get a taste of her voice, and of the album itself on Amazon:
Be sure to play track 11, “Like An Angel Passing Through My Room.” When my grandma heard this song, she made me promise I’d sing it at her funeral!
My sister and I are sending this album to my brother this Christmas. It is the CD that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir recorded with the King’s Singers, an AMAZING choral group, which you can read more about at the following website:
This has a very bright and classical tone to it, very upbeat and jolly. You can listen to some clips on Amazon:
The King’s Singers are phenomenal, and combined with the Tabernacle Choir, this compilation is completely awesome.
