Chrome,

Sorry, no input from me on the gifts....I can't get to those links here from the office....and didn't have a chance to hop online last night and check them out. Red Envolope does have some great gift ideas though.

Every now and then my H and I will thumb through catalogs like that....he'll ask me if I like certain things...and I will point out things I really like. Lets face it....it does take effort to really get to know someone's "style"...and at least he's making that effort.

I think my H would always take what I would call the easy road out (take me shopping) because #1 he wanted to make sure I'd get something I'd like, and #2 in his past experiences nothing he bought for women was good enough (so fear I would't like it). I believe though I've finally gotten him to trust that when I say to him....that for me, it's really not the "gift", it's the thought and the effort behind the gift that means something to me. I told him last night, he could sit down and hand make me a card that cost him nothing....and that would mean more to me than jewelry, flowers, or anything else. Not that I'd turn the other things down mind you LOL, but they definitely wouldn't mean as much as the effort put into something like a hand made card (for me anyway).

Oh & Honeypot....that was a great cashmere set wasn't it? I actually did really like it myself...if H bought me that, I'd certainly wear it.
