I thought I’d pop over here and include a link to my most recent Segullah post–a list of new titles to give as Christmas gifts as compiled by the Segullah staff. Lots of great ideas. Head over and check it out!

“Gifts of the Spirit” hits mailboxes this week!
by Features Editor Shelah Miner We’re delighted to announce that Segullah‘s summer issue will arrive in mailboxes across the country this week. The topic, “Gifts of the Spirit,” was inspired by our ongoing quest to find and develop the spiritual gifts which we’ve been given. In her editorial, Allyson Smith says, “I have met many [...]
On the prowl for a good read
by Features Editor Shelah Miner The temperature is supposed to hit 90 this afternoon. In my mind, the first 90-degree day signifies the official beginning of summer, no matter what month it is. For me, an ideal summer is all about a comfortable lounge chair, a good pair of sunglasses, and a stack of books [...]
If my journal could talk, it would probably tell me to quit whining and get a life already
By Heather O. Followed, quite possibly, by a smack upside my head. Or a swift kick in the heinie. Both of them are warranted.
Paper or laptop?

On food storage and homemade breast pumps
Provident Loving By Angela W. Schultz I’m not the easiest person to live with. I have lots of good intentions, which I often push too far. Some people might call me downright peculiar—even for a Mormon. I abhor waste. In the summer I collect all the unwanted produce from everyone I know. Yes, including the [...]
Channeling Terry Gross
By Features Editor Shelah Miner I’m the kind of girl who has to psych herself up for a day or two before calling our teenage babysitter.
