Tonight we will celebrate my friend Marin's successful project in India this past summer choreographing a piece on a professional company in Mumbai. There will be Indian food, Bollywood music, bindhis to wear, video of her project and lots and lots of stories. She'll be showing off her gorgeous sari and other fun souvenirs. I think I'll wear this silk scarf she brought me. Isn't it beautiful? The colors remind me of dawn...
What's your favorite "brought from the far corners" gift? What do you cherish that someone brought you from a place you've never been?

My MIL visited Australia & New Zealand and brought back a whole slew of things for us- she sent it to us UPS and the package GOT LOST and was NEVER RECOVERED. To this day I'm still totally bummed about it!
When I was a little girl, there was an elder that was waiting for his visa to Portugal in our ward in NY. Our family became close with him and so when he finally got to Portugal he sent me an apron that I just ADORED. It was blue with hand embroidered children & flowers on it and big deep pockets. I wore it all the time. I ended up running into him again when I was at BYU and babysat for his children a few times. I don't think I'll ever forget that apron or him.
How fun! I love it when my mom goes to Germany and brings me back lotions and potions...and chocolate.
When nate came back from switzerland with 12 bars of chocolate. I won't confess the amount of time it took me to eat said bars.
