I hare it because I give gifts to my parents so its weird not giving to his.... but I do admit its nice not having to. </p> <p>If I did have to, maybe a cookbook. Especially one with fun things she can cook with her grandchildren. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-getting-your-mil-for-xmasthe-holidays#post-365373 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 20:08:55 +0000 Smurfette 365373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No clue!!

The one year we got them a wine making kit. For her birthday two years ago we got her a series of classes to learn stained glass.
