This sophisticated and cozy shawl is designed to give as a gift to someone who might need a hug! In the inside pocket (love that it has a pocket!),the lucky recipient will find a message of encouragement printed on a bookmark that reads, “We all need a little comfort now and then…A reminder to help us know that we are not alone in the world…That there is someone in our corner, ready with a hug, no matter what.

La Palm Massage Lotion French Rose
This brand of lotion is my absolute favorite. La Palm makes other scents too, but I tend to go back each time to the French Rose. I buy this lotion for my mom all the time because she comments on the scent every time I wear it. It makes a great gift not only because it smells good, but it goes on velvety smooth and quickly soaks into your skin. Mom and I both hate when you have to take a lot of time to rub in body lotion. Made with aloe vera and vitamin E, I first discovered this product at a nail salon when I went in for a pedicure one day. The technician used in on my legs and I immediately asked to buy a bottle for myself. It cost $25, and, I thought, well worth it. But then I found it on amazon for $11.50! Everyone who tries this moisture restoring lotion loves it!
