THE NEW SHRINE CHRISTMAS MUSIC CD!
They do it every year. Some people collect those great White House Christmas ornaments (great gift idea) every year. I collect those National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception Christmas CDs. -people with a classical musical ear LOVE those Classic Cathedral Christmas tunes.
The National Shrine in DC (http://www.nationalshrine.com/) has a great shop -ideal for Christmas shopping if you are trying to recapture the meaning of the season in the right Spirit.
When you get tired of Bloomies- hit the Shrine Shops (or better yet-get there first before all your money runs out.)
Also- check out the Gingerbread replica of the SHRINE the master pastry chef at the FOUR SEASONS in Georgetown made sitting in its lobby! tres cool !
Also- the Catholic Information Center is running a twenty percent (20%) off sale all this week. They have a full selection of DVDs of saints lives (Ignatian press does a lot of them) as well as christmas cards, books, icons, cds and statues. Its two blocks from the White House. They have a chapel inside and daily Mass. This is an awesome little island of solace for prayerful reflection in the middle of the hustle and bustle near the center of power of the free world. Free for a Reason.
Catch the Spirit of the Season (I just made that up)
