The cookies, and the jam were delicious and fresh! The box was wrapped beautifully, and the tea was unique (fragrant little roses). A perfect gift for all occasions. Thank you!
Truly words of the heart from the blessed Gerondissa Macrina.
We appreciate the smell of incense. I would have liked to know the usefulness of each incense. if you have suggestions for prayers and so on.
