  • Gift ideas for 30th...

    So, one of my friends is turning 30 on Friday. I wanted to get her a little ($25 or less) something. I was thinking of some kind of "summer drink kit" with items to make a summery drink. Ideas? (Or ideas of something else?)

    Margarita Glass, mini (airplane size) tequila, jar of gourmet salsa and bag of tortilla chips all in a pretty bag.

      Decorative oversized margarita glass from Pier 1 and a bottle of Skinnygirl ready-to-serve margarita and some rim sugar? I like Luanne's idea of chips and salsa along with it, too. Or a spa pedicure...

        I don't know, how good of friends are you? I think the big round number birthdays ask for a bit of cheekiness with the gift giving.


        How about some Fifty Shades of Grey?

            Well then, it sounds like she definitely needs a cheeky gift. leather riding crop? whip cream? Ha ha ha.

            I mean what are friends for if you can't embarrass them and tease them mercilessly?

            Clearly all that training brought out my latent dominatrix tendencies.

              I would totally go funnier/riskier if I was going to her surprise party, but I'm tired and pregnant!

                Margarita flavored edible underwear.

                I wouldn't get just one glass, drinking alone is what makes you an alcoholic. Skinny Girl stuff taste awful.

                  Ooh those are cute, V! I'm not a fan of skinny girl either. One of our physicians got me a bottle as a thank you gift, and I think he was implying that I need to lose weight. Haha

                      Haha it was a very awkward interaction. I love this doc, and he's super charismatic. He usually doesn't have awkward moments. He had bought my assistant and I gifts for running one of his meetings earlier this year. It was nearing the end of the day, and he stops by to give me a bag with two bottles in it and said something like, "don't let R drink these. Actually, if you want to open them now, I could use a drink". I said, "normally I love drinking at work, but I gotta run to the gym". I think he realized how awkward our interaction had gotten, so he responded with, "yeah, you should probably go work out". I didn't think anything of it until I got home and noticed that one of them was Skinny Girl and got kind of sad. Hahaha now R and I joke that "Dr. G. thinks I'm fat". My asisstant likes to joke that Dr. G wanted to drink Skinny Girl cosmos at 4:30 in our office on a Wednesday afternoon.

                      Ok tangent over.
