[QUOTE="Malika, post: 564507, member: 11227"] Actually.... this may seem strange... but I would not seek to compensate her for the cost of her baking. She wants to do it for you as a gift, does not want payment - I would accept her gracious offer and allow her to give. I know that is hard to do sometimes. I would instead buy her a really nice bottle of wine. I think otherwise it just looks like you are trying to pay her in another guise and although it is of course purely well-meant on your part, it is a little as though you are dismissing what she said about not wanting to be paid. Just my take :) [/QUOTE]
