What can I send her instead of flowers that's actually useful? A friend is recovering from surgery. She's due to go home from the hospital tomorrow. I'd like to send her (and her boyfriend) something that's actually useful in a situation like this, rather than flowers which I know for a fact she has plenty of. If I lived in the same city I'd bring over food, but from 1000-odd miles away I obviously can't do that. Any thoughts? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.129155 Mon, 03 Aug 2009 12:50:39 -0800 gift medical notflowers recovery surgery dersins http://ask.metafilter.com/32631/Wheres%2Dthe%2DSomething%2DCool%2DDelivery%2DService What's something nice you can get delivered to someone... that isn't flowers? (or chinese food.) A friend of mine has her birthday tomorrow, and I'm looking to do something for her. She lives too far away to visit on a workday, so I'm trying to think of something in line with the old flower-delivery standby that isn't as trite as flowers themselves.
