[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 150266, member: 3626"] I have a couple of friends who have the Roomba. They love them! They're between $200 (not too good of a model) to $350. One thing a friend of mine swears by are the steamers for tiles, grout and grease. Says makes cleaning the kitchen countertops and stove top so much easier. I've borrowed it for my charcoal grill and it is awesome. Another nice gift is one of the digital photo frames ... load some pics of her grandkids (if you don't have digital, just scan them in and then load) and they'll flip through for her. If money is tight, a coupon book good for things like a manicure, pedicure done by you; a special picture drawn by the grandkids; a lunch with her son; a family meal cooked by your family for her on the day of her choice; etc. is always a big hit. The more personal, the better, especially if there is something special by each family member for her. I don't know if this is the book you're talking about, but here goes anyway: Southern Living by Ad Hudler. Here's one review of it by a book club member: [B]a funny but accurate portrayal of the modern south [/B]Through the lives of three women, Ad Hudler shows the craziness a Georgia city is experiencing due to an influx of Yankees who've come to town to work in a Toyota plant. The culture clashes are hilarious! And boy does he know the South ... from the Christmas sweaters on the affluent women to the pork rinds for sale at the flea market. I didn't care much for the character who poisoned the neighbor's dogs because they peed in her yard, but in the end I fell in love with all three women and identified with their struggles and loves. My book club of yankees and southerners really enjoyed this one. [/QUOTE]
