Veering out of my normal lane to share some gift ideas (mostly books and games, but also chocolate) for my fellow procrastinators who are worried about supply chain delays.
If any of your seniors have ties to Saskatchewan, my most recent book, A Radiant Life is still drawing rave reviews from seniors who recognize the people, places and events.
Writing from a place of calm, having already purchased Chanukah presents (because it starts in 3 days!): all the suggestions I've read / used / played are excellent.
To board games, I add Wingspan. Our current favourite.
For all ages, hair makeup / wax / chalk. Fun colours with no commitment and (depending on brand) little mess. Will be gifting to kids and seniors in my life.
Splurge: electric fireplace. My husband ordered me one for my home office. I CAN'T WAIT.
Experiential gift: I paid for my mum to take an online drawing class through USask with me this summer for her birthday. It was a great activity to share. Highly recommend that or something similar for almost any age.
Cookbooks!
Spice mixes - get people out of their comfort zones with new flavours.

Excellent idea, Merle, and it would also be of interest to those with a science background. Here is the Chapters-Indigo link: https://www.tkqlhce.com/click-100526276-11556907?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chapters.indigo.ca%2Fen-ca%2Fhome%2Fsearch%2F%3Fkeywords%3Da%2520radiant%2520life%23internal%3D1
