npgraphicdesign 3 #1 August 22, 2011 Unless a woman is allergic to chocolate, you can't really go wrong with chocolate as a nice thank you gift, right? This is just to say thank you to someone who helped you out with something. And fellow males of DZ, before y'allses sick minds start churning, sheddap. Any other suggestions/thoughts would be appreciates. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eeneR 3 #2 August 22, 2011 It all depends on the woman Sure chocolate is fine if she actually likes it. I have a few friends that are not fans of chocolate. She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

missbrz 0 #4 August 22, 2011 I also have a few friends who really don't like chocolate. Also you never know if she just started some crazy hard core diet, then even if she LOVES chocolate, she may not appreciate it. I know we're crazy & it makes no sense, but still. If you know she likes chocolate & didnt just start a new diet (which might be hard to tell), chocolate's fine. If not, I'd go with a gift card to say thankyou. A wee less personal unless you know she's a die hard fan of a certain store, but a slightly safer option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amstalder 0 #5 August 22, 2011 Like others said, chocolate may or may not be a good decision. I would think the thought would win out over whether or not she likes it or is on a diet or whatever. HOWEVER, with that said, whatever you decide to get her, please pair it with a heart-felt, hand-written thank you note. I swear the practice of writing thank you notes is going straight down the shitter these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #9 August 22, 2011 Is she someone who diets or watches her weight? If so, she might not appreciate being tempted with the chocolate. Is she a skydiver? A jump on her account at her home dz would probably be appreciated.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bluepill 0 #11 August 22, 2011 Something created by yourself. A thank you note maybe. Personally I'd go for a CD Mix of hits that say what you want... "I said a hip, a hop, the hippie, the hippie To the hip hip hop, a you dont stop The rock it to the bang bang boogie say up jumped the boogie To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat..."

JohnMitchell 16 #21 August 22, 2011 Quote I swear the practice of writing thank you notes is going straight down the shitter these days. Amen. We did ours after the wedding. But so many wedding gifts go unacknowledged these days. Few things make a person feel as good as a sincere thank you note. Now that the big Leap for Lupus Boogie and NW Women's record is complete, I have a big stack of thank you letters to write. . . . And it's my pleasure.
