Hostess Gift for DS's Overnight Stay...

Would you like to hear about some of the gifts I have received from others when they have stayed here?

  1. Gift basket of items from where the person visiting lives (I've gotten Georgia peach things, Maine maple syrup, a quilted Amish country potholders, wine from the visitors home area, woven baskets from a number of places including Africa)
  2. Candy, flowers, bottle of wine, craft beers.
  3. Homemade things...breads, cakes, candy, cupcakes, pasta, cookies, brownies.
  4. Purchased items...Omaha Steaks, Harry and David, Cheryl's Cookies, Popcorn.

And the things people have given me have given me good ideas for giving to others.

I stayed for a week with my sister…a week is a long time. I knew she was redecorating so I got her a gift certificate to Pier One. She was thrilled. And on my next trip, she showed me what she bought!

I will be staying with friends, and my other sister this summer. They all love New England real maple syrup…so that is what they will get.
