Re: Gift Ideas for
SIL you don't like - find a spa near her and get her a pedi certificate.$30ish and call it done?
MIL - a new cookbook? i hear Dorie Greenspan's new cookbook is good. gift certificate to sur la table? she's probably not familiar with the Pastry Queen as she's mostly a texas sensation but she has fabulous cookbooks and its a bit of Texas you could mail... maybe with some texas-y cooking stuff?
Grandma - jewelry?? i never buy my grandmother gifts anymore cause she has everything.
I've given several American Apparel Circle Scarves (I actually like the sheer ones the best, they seem a little more fancy) to ladies I know, and they wear them all the time.
(I've seen these at less expensive prices at the RR Outlet, but I don't know if you're interested in shipping direct.)
