This past week I haven’t been feeling well – it’s nothing serious, just a cold or possibly the flu. However, the stuffy-head symptoms (especially sinus migraines) can be tough to deal with. Most of the time I’m a happy person, but every now and then, when my body isn’t acting normally, I fall into a bit of a slump. Luckily for me, yesterday I received this unexpected package full of cheer from my friend Lisa. These little goodies instantly perked me up!
I met Lisa through blogland. Her simple and elegant style caught my eye, and the way she so artfully executes the smallest of details is flawless. Not only are these little packets gorgeous on their own, Lisa has filled each one with sweet smelling lavender. Just one whiff of this calming fragrance and I feel better already. Thanks to Lisa’s generous spirited offering, I’m off to a good start for the week.

Ahem……… what Becky failed to mention (probably because she is a humble person) is how she has sent me a couple of goodie packages long before I sent her this! She has been so kind and encouraging to me – she has no idea what it has meant to me. Thank you, Becky!! I hope to meet you in person one day……………
Blessings,
Lisa

Becky,
Glad to hear you are on the mend! Sinus issues are miserable; I also have them!
I love lavender, what a wonderful gift from a generous friend!
I mail my Mom rosemary every once in awhile. When she was here last
we made bread. There is nothing like herbs to wake up the senses!
What a lovely gift!

That was so sweet. In this day and age, I think we’ve forgotten how special a little gift can be through the mail…especially when it’s unexpected. We all should do this more. 🙂
