5 Great Recipe Ideas For Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day is just around the corner, and after that there will be plenty of opportunities to go on a picnic in the park or host a cookout. Our gift shop at the Lake of the Ozarks has lots of delicious gourmet mixes that are perfect for serving a group of hungry people. Today we've shared 5 recipes that you can easily make from the Wind & Willow mixes we carry at Good & Perfect Gifts. 

Zucchini Pizza 
This is a delicious and unique way to make "pizza." It's perfect for vegetarians, but if you're a meat-lover, ground beef or sausage tastes great added on.  

• 1 Brick Oven Pizza Cheeseball & Appetizer Mix
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 small tomatoes, sliced
• 1 cup shredded cheese of your choice 
• 1 fresh basil, chopped 

Preheat oven to 375° or cook on the grill. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. Cut each zucchini in half horizontally, then scoop out the seeds. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with dry Cheeseball Mix. Top with sliced tomato, cheese, basil, and sprinkle with topping packet. Bake for 20-25 minutes until soft. Serve warm. Feel free to add your favorite toppings in addition to the ones listed above.

Fantastic Ideas For Great Mother's Day Gifts

This Sunday, May 14, 2017 is Mother's Day! Just in case you've waited until nearly the last minute to find the perfect gift for Mom, don't worry! Good & Perfect Gifts in Eldon has some wonderful ideas for you, and there's still time to visit us and pick out something she will love. 

Timeless Jewelry
Our Lake of the Ozarks gift shop is filled with a little bit of everything, so no matter what your mom's personal preferences are, there's something perfect for her on our shelves. One item that any woman loves to receive is a beautiful piece of jewelry. We carry many name brands that Mom will recognize and appreciate right away, plus many fabulous pieces from smaller, local companies that are gorgeous and unique. You'll also find some lovely jewelry boxes for your mother to keep all of her jewelry in. 

Right now through Saturday, May 13 at closing time (4 pm,) we are hosting an "Ears To You" promotion from Brighton that will allow you to get an extra bonus gift for Mom. When you purchase any Brighton necklace and bracelet, we will give you a pair of Brighton earrings of equal or lesser value for FREE! They don't have to be a set. You are welcome to pick out 3 pieces that don't go together, and even break up the bunch and give away three gifts instead of one!

Stylish Fashion
If Mom has too much jewelry (is there really such a thing?) maybe she would like something else new to add to her summer wardrobe. Good & Perfect Gifts carries a wonderful line of unique shirts, dresses, jackets, scarves, and more for a one-of-a-kind look like no one else has. We also carry other fashion accessories, like hats, handbags, belts, shoes, and other items that will keep your mother looking her best every time she steps out the door. 

Gourmet Treats
For the moms that enjoy spending time in the kitchen, you'll find lots of amazing dishes and serving items to add to her collection, as well as many other kitchen items that can make food preparation easy and fun. There are also lots of gourmet mixes for whipping up a tasty treat or two, plus many other delicious items to feed Mom. We've got gourmet coffees, teas, Good & Perfect Gifts' very own brand of canned goods, and much more. 

If fresh-baked sounds better to you, but you don't have time to do the baking, pick up something fresh and delicious from Sugar B's Cakes & Pastries, located inside our Lake of the Ozarks gift shop. Muffins, cookies, cakes... oh my! There's always something amazing coming out of Bridgette's kitchen! 

Fabulous Fragrances
We boast one of the best candle stores at the Lake of the Ozarks. You can find every type of candle in every possible scent to make any room smell incredible. There is also a wonderful selection of fragrance warmers if your mother prefers to scent the room without having to light a flame. 

Candles aren't the only sweet-smelling items we have in our gift shop. There are products to scent things around the home, such as sachets, laundry detergents, and room sprays, as well as items that add lovely scent to your body, like personal sachets, liquid & bar soaps, lotions, and more. 

Beautiful Home Decor
Get sentimental and pick up a lovely picture frame to put a photo of you and your mother inside, or maybe an inspirational plaque that tells her how she makes you feel. You'll find lots of exquisite home decor items that can be displayed in any room of the house. We've even got some fabulous artificial floral arrangements that your mom will love. This type of flower won't die after a few days, but rather live on for her to display for many years to come! 

You will find all kinds of wonderful items to choose from inside our gift shop at the Lake of the Ozarks to show your mother just how special she is. Stop by Good & Perfect Gifts Wednesday-Thursday between 10 am - 5 pm, or Saturday from 9 am - 4 pm. We'll be happy to help you discover the perfect gift.
