I need help with a gift idea!

I need help with a gift idea!

for my step-mom. It's her bday/she's retiring so I want to get her something nice. My Dad is no help whatsoever

she's loves to read--but I get books at discount so I feel awkward giving her books that she knows only cost me $2

her and my dad fly a lot to FL since they have a house there--so I was thinking of South West giftcard--but it seems so impersonal.

she also loves doing the Wii Fit..maybe theres somethign for that?

HELP!

It's hard for me to suggest, I don't know what else she likes. Maybe pearl earings? BUT if you say she like the Wii then maybe try getting her the newest game (sorry I am not a Wii buff).

What else is she into? Does she like to cook? Is she into spas?

Maybe some kind of cooking class or a gift certificate to a spa? (and you can make the gift certificate to spa more personal by going with her!)

Does she like any particular type of food? Is she a coffee or a tea lover?

I just bought my friend a beautiful Anne Klein watch with swarvoski crystals around the face. She loved it.

How about some baking classes at Ala Carte?

Or a Martha Stewart 'Baking Basket' they are having a big sale. You can put together some great Martha Stewart baking tools etc in a basket. Since she is retiring, she may have more time to bake!

I am a HUGE fan of gift cards - the SW is nice but AMex ones are good too. I know it seems impersonal but I just love getting them. It is like guilt free shopping!!!

What about a spa day (just another idea) - I like getting those too!

Do you know if she has a favorite book? What about, like, a signed first edition, or something like that?
