Things I like: Books Candles fun pjs cleaning supplies (don't laugh...lol...but my mom always gets us a basket of the "upscale" stuff and it's one of my faves) booze of choice with glasses Dishes, kitchen utensils, travel mugs etc...anything in that area that needs replacing? Clothes if the person is at all close to you H likes stuff he can do with the kids (Knex sets, legos, art project kits etc.) Sounds weird but it's actually a big hit. nailpolishes, makeup, jewelry. Surprise me. I like it all. I also like outside stuff (flower planters, hoses blah blah)
