Help!<P>As Dirty Harry says, "A man has to know his limitiations". Shopping is one of mine. Help me out with suggestions for filling my W's Easter basket.<P>------------------<BR>But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.<BR>Galatians 5:22-23

How about a DOVE chocolate bunny. <BR> easter earrings (bunnies, chicks)<BR> a small wife's devotional book<BR> something from bath and body shop<P>I would like those things!!!!!!

I'll get flamed by the goodie-goodies out there (hey... wait a minute... I'm a goodie-goodie too)... I'd suggest... <A HREF="http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/Forum28/HTML/002176.html" TARGET=_blank>Chocolate</A> (see my reply to Tim's post. <P>-----------------------------------------<P>OK...<BR>more seriously... jewelry is always nice... (not overly extravagent)... a bottle of her favorite wine... a coupon for a free massage (from a women of course) to remove some of that stress condition... a "A You win <I>one POJA discussion card</I>"?...<P>...or anything that brings back good memories!<P> <P>Jim

Hi!<P>Here are some ideas:<P>For a romantic/"just the two of you" basket...<P>Give your wife a basket filled with something pretty to wear from Victoria's Secret (if you do that, keep your wife's figure in mind...don't get her something she'd be self-conscious in...get something to flatter her assets...a sales clerk can help you do that). You could also go and purchase the Stress-Relief products from Bath and Body Works. There is a candle, massage LOTION, and some bath salts and bath gel, etc. Top it off with some wine (if you drink...I can't/don't) or some non-alcoholic wine (I could do that) and some romantic music and you have QUITE an Easter basket! <P>OR...<P>You could fill a basket with a pretty tea cup and matching saucer. Purchase some gourmet tea (or regular tea for that matter) Enclose a poem or letter (handwritten by you). Top it off with a bundle of fresh-cut flowers and some bakery fresh sugar cookies (or, better yet, cookies you've made with your own two hands).<P>OR...<P>You could fill a basket with some comfortable pajamas and a manicure/pedicure or at-home-facial set. Put in a copy of her favorite movie. For refreshments, enclose microwave popcorn with bottled coke (you know...the GLASS bottles where you have to have a bottle-opener to get into it). YOU could give her a facial/manicure/pedicure and you could watch her favorite movie and cuddle.<P>OR...<P>Do a traditional child's Easter basket with the chocolate bunny, "PEEPS" marshmallow bunnies/chicks, coloring book, plastic eggs, etc. Inside the plastic eggs, have little pieces of paper that have complimentary things about your wife written on them. BUT, inside one of the plastic eggs, enclose a pretty piece of jewelry...something meaningful/special...to symbolize something...and have a handwritten love note to remind your wife of your undying love and devotion to her...<P>You get the idea...<P>Hope this helps...<P>"Hoppy" basket hunting... <P>Jill<P><BR>

Thanks for the great suggestions everybody! Time to start shopping!!
