I bought her some amethyst earrings, a new phone, a throw blanket and a bunch of other gifts and to be honest I think she was most impressed with the fact that I gave blood in her name. I suppose it was the fact that I did something she felt was important that was the most meaningful gift of all . . . especially since it was something I didn't have any desire to do at first. Now? Now I can't wait to donate again . . . loved those cookies.
