Each year, when I visit my family in the States, I inevitably return with my luggage carefully stuffed from wheels to zipper with American treasures. Every visit home yields a different haul and each year two or three friends benefit from a little luggage space with my bringing them back something they’ve ordered online or requested from a local shop. My Dad has even been part of this. Our luggage has carried over knitting yarns, yarn winder gadgets, winter coats, fabric, baby clothes, diapers, baby gifts, cornbread mix, ranch salad dressing mix, Old Bay seasoning, parenting books, baby toys, underwear, and much more. This spring, my luggage was mostly filled with baby clothes, books, and toys with a few other favorites added to treat myself. Who benefitted from a little luggage space this year? Blogger and voiceover artist Arlene and boutique cookery school owner Margaret. Here are a few photos of the non-baby items that came back to Cork with me. There will be a separate post about the yarn and children’s toys/books!
