My parents are in their 60's and have most everything you can think of.
Clothes, got 'em. Kitchen stuff, got plenty of it. Knick knacks, got 'em.
What do you buy then?
Well, we have a Tanger Outlet Mall in Locust Grove and I had noticed that there was a Harry & David's and perked up when I saw the store! PERFECT! Neat, gourmet type goodies that I can make a gift basket for my mom and dad!
Here's a photo of what I came away with and just let me tell you, we bought a bag of the potato corn chowder for ourselves to make last Sunday evening and it was HEAVENLY!!!! I found apple butter, peach butter, flavored coffees and licorice (dad loves this) and the crystal biscuit jar (from Tues. Morning for mom.) So hopefully this little gift basket will be well received (the basket is incredible itself from my son's store!) . . .

what a pretty basket- my parent's are the same way...
I love making up gift baskets...doing it yourself is cheaper, you can personalize it to the individual - and it's fun.
Four of the gifts for this Christmas - are gift baskets I made up. They all will include some unusual or fun looking foods I have found (like a tin of Anniversary Edition Spam for my college aged bil).
