What a fabulous photo! Thanks for sharing this with all of us!

definately postcards of your country, teas or coffees, specific country candy, fabric/threads from your stash, handmade goods are great. while i have sent secret pal packages overseas i have yet to receive one from across the way but i would want something representative of their country in my package. you may have a travel bureau near by that has little do dads such as pictorial books, descriptions of places of interest. you can do refrigerator magnets as i think i got one of a red phone booth from one of my friends travel.

i'm thinking of some more things and will post. as you build up your seap box of things to send, you will have time to do more cost effective shopping and get things on sale or find things from thrift shops.

ok here's more ideas:
scottish plaid pencils/pens
magnets
tea towels
bookmarks
a small pkg of those delish cookies
a kilt air freshner
bagpipes or map of scotland keyring
shot glass

It's my daughter's wedding - fairly traditional. The man waving like a crazy person is my husband, lol.

Agreed -- something from Scotland (but not necessarily fabric). I got a coffee mug with a man in a kilt and the black watch plaid -- love it.

I would love anything from Scotland because my Dad's side of the family are Scottish, the McCallums.

I worked with a woman whose name was McCallum and her husband was Canadian - lot of Scots in Canada.

I would love a mug rug with one side made of any tartan. Snowballs, and I don't mean the cold ones! I mean the marshmallow ones covered in chocolate and rolled in coconut.

I love the photo - and especially your husband waving wildly at the back; it just makes me smile. My best friend lives in northern England and we exchange gifts at Christmas. I always love any of the following: a coffee mug with scenes of Britain on it, a package of shortbread, a package of "oaties", Cadbury's bar, a small jar of clotted cream, tea towels with cathedrals on them, small jars of salmon spread (I love it and can't get it here), and my favorite fragrance which is only available at Boots. And of course fabulous photos of the family and neighbors in the pub and a view of her garden from the kitchen window. The package is always small and light and every year I'm excited to get it.

And if you have any family recipes that you could share, they would be fun as well.
