Hivemind needed - I want to send a "thank you" something to the friend and her mom who let K-Bug crash there for most of August. The like sweets, but don't eat a lot of them. I want to send something more than flowers but most gift baskets are either loaded with sweets or seem extremely over priced.

Any ideas?

Harry & David has some good, healthy selections, Suzi. At usually decent prices.

Claude Raines got all the best lines!

clearly it's time for a rewatch.

SuziQ I think Edible Flowers has a few affordable arrangements of fruit or chocolate-dipped fruit.

I mean Edible Arrangements. Looks like they're about the same price range as Harry & David.

I've had the Edible Arragements before.

One was sent to a guy who was promoted, it was cool instead of flowers and then the other was sent for a birthday to a lady from her husband.

They are very tasty and pretty.

There's also The Cookie Garden.

My sister is inordinately weirded out by Edible Arrangements. Something about how it's wrong to make one thing (fruit) look like something else (flowers).

I like Harry and David. Everything I've tried from them has been good.

I just, once again, spent a day at my office and accomplished nothing. Well, I kind of accomplished something -- I realized that an idea my adviser wanted me to look at doesn't actually work. But then, once I realized that, I accomplished nothing else.

it's wrong to make one thing (fruit) look like something else (flowers).

I love it when they make one thing look like something else! I'm a big fan of marzipan for this very reason.

Sends Laga a pie plate. Made of marzipan.

Just because.

Bingo!
