Hubby just asked me what I want for chanukah
We usually give each other a gift in the $100 range give or take.
But I am stumped! Can't thinkn of anything I want!
Any suggestions?
I'm not the snuggle up on the couch type so no interest in cozy things
Not really interested in new cookbooks right now
For refernce: I am a young mom and don't have lots of me-time, so looking for suggestions for something that can improve my life, make things I already do more enjoyable, or more practical

TIA!

What are your hobbies. What do you like to do when you have done your part as a wife and mother? Meaning to say like once you’ve done supper, homework and cleaned up? Do you like to read, watch a movie, listen to a shuir?

I was really happy to get a ring doorbell it saved me from having to open the door everytime it rang!

Also an electric flour sifter is what I'd like.

What about a massage or fancy pedicure? Maybe your present could be 2 hours to yourself on a Sunday with $100 to do whatever you want?
