Just A Little Something

When we stay in B&Bs I like to leave a little "thank you" gift. Even though you pay for the stay quite often you get more from your hosts than just a place to lay your head and a nice meal. For our upcoming trip to Ireland I wanted an "Iowa" gift.

When we travel it is funny how people perceive Iowa. Quite often we are confused with Idaho. And if people do know where we are their thoughts turn to corn and pigs. Which we have in abundance.

I think I found the perfect gift to leave... Jolly Time Iowa Popcorn on the cob. It's small, it's light, and who doesn't like popcorn?

I found this great little item at Heart of Iowa Marketplace, a great little shop in Historic Valley Junction(a great place to visit if you happen to come to Des Moines).
