My birthday is coming
#12
My hubbie got me gift cards & I appreciated it but there were a couple of times I couldn't use them, because they had a minimum purchase or their reader wouldn't read. I wound up finishing at the grocery, they take any & all money!

I'd ask my husband to surprise me with picnic food. That's what we used to do when we didn't have extra money and we still enjoy a nice drive with a picnic. A gift card for fabric is nice too, but that doesn't seem very personal since you'd use the fabric to make gifts. Whatever you end up with or doing, enjoy your birthday.

This is what I did last Christmas for my husband and son. I tore out quilting catalog pages (like from Connecting Threads) and circled items all the way from a dollar to 200.00, put them on the fridge and told them anything circled would be great if they wanted to get me something. It worked out great for them...and for me

Unless you really want something "in your hand," memories are best. Why not plan a day together (all day) and go to Coney Island, or the Museum, or a concert. Make sandwiches and go to the park. Don't forget to take the camera.
