<\/a><\/p>\nThe “assignment” was if money were no object what would we give our mother, girlfriend and husband? We could choose one or all three and I chose all three. Here is what I came up with (and had a blast doing it, thank you Marsha)……<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For my husband.<\/em>….since he has always believed (and still does) that he is a cowboy at heart, I would give him a dream dude ranch to channel his inner cowboy to his hearts content. Complete with herds of cattle, hordes of horses, coops of chickens, and acres and acres to roam. Of course a beautifully restored barn (something we both would love) would be part of this gift along with perks like a huge luscious garden, a tennis court, a pool, a massive greenhouse (a little something for me too)! Welcome to Micheal’s dude ranch…..<\/p>\n? And off he goes……<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For my girlfriend(s)<\/em>…….I have a few in mind, all of whom I consider to be like a sister. For them I would give them a “girlfriends trip” once a year for the rest of? their lives. Every year we would take a prepaid vacation to the destination of our choice and shop and eat till we drop. What better way to discover new places and learn about different cultures than with a bunch of your closest friends! This is the gift that keeps on giving, there are no limits to age…we can do this until we are old and gray:)? Travel, togetherness, friendship all rolled into one? I am so there!<\/p>\n Here is a snapshot of the kinds of things we would do and places we would see……<\/p>\n And for my beloved mother<\/em>…..I had to really<\/em> think about this one. But after much hemming and hawing about the classiest lady I know….I came up with a brilliant gift, one that will have her laughing. I would give her her very own workroom complete with acres of fabrics, buckets of buttons and a battalion of seamstresses.<\/p>\n My mother who is a very elegant dresser finds it getting harder and harder to find beautiful,elegant, well made lady like clothes that won’t break the bank. This is one of her biggest frustrations in life. I hear it all the time: TRUST ME:) So here she could create her very own wardrobe to her hearts content and who knows…probably create a booming business in the process! Welcome to Mimi’s Couturier…….<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Oh and did I mention there will be an around the clock supply of Sees candy for anyone who works there….(her fave)<\/p>\n Hope you enjoyed this, so now it’s your turn. If money were no object what you would you get for your significant other, mother and best friend? Let me know,? this was such a fun post to put together!
