Ideas for a goodie bag for a new mom..
Hi ladies...
My BFF just had a baby and I want to put a nice bag of things together for her...any suggestions?
-She loves Chai Tea, so I got her some mix...
What was nice to have after you came home? What can I put together for her??

I'm not there yet, but I think chocoloate and some lotions would be great. Sounds like you are on your way to a wonderful pampering gift!
Maybe cook her a meal or casserole to go along with it?
Maybe a "gourmet" soup--something that "usually" goes in a holiday food basket--easy to make (even for DH's, or others), usually pretty healthy, yummy.
And try to fit a full time nanny in that goodie bag.
Much love, and really good to see you. Hope you are well, and congrats to your friend on new baby! Jill
Any snack food that was easy to eat (quick and with one hand) and bonus if it was healthy - granola bars, trailmix type stuff, crackers, chips, chocolate
etc.
If she lives near you, it might be nice to offer to bring her lunch or dinner and then help clean up. I know that for me it was great to have that help. I hate having dirty dishes in the sink and cleaning the kitchen was the last thing I had time to do at that point.
Other than that, I agree with the healthy, easy to eat snacks!
