I’m making a Recovery gift basket, what should I put in it?
Jen asked:
My mother-in-law is going to have a hysterectomy next month and is going to be out of work for 2 months. I want to give her a gift basket that has some crafts/goodies she could use so she won’t get bored in recovery. She likes to crochet so I’m getting her a crochet hook and some yarn. I’m also going to put a heating pad in there too. Are there any suggestions of things I should put in her basket?

I’m a list maker so a lovely note pad could be helpful and maybe some light reading -there’s a needlework mystery series that is good. The books have hints and suggestions and patterns. Monica Ferris is the author.
A phone card is nice, maybe some note cards and envelopes, small inspirational book such as those in Christian book shops, a pen, a magazine, packets of coffee, hot chocolate, some tea.
