X-mas gift ideas for grandmothers

Misc.

Hi, I have the same problem. Some of the things that I have done is to make up a basket of different things like homemade jams, special candies (for the one on insulin get good sugar free candies, pictures of the grandkids are always a hit.
Also in the baskets if they are tea or coffee drinkers get a nice mug and fill with specialty coffee's and tea's. Or anything that they may have a special interest in like bingo, gardening etc. GOOD LUCK !!
