My family is one of the most argumentative groups of people that you will ever meet. Don't get me wrong – we don't get into actual angry fights. They are more like debates or heated discussions. When we raise our voices and get into it with each other, it can look pretty alarming to someone who has not seen us before. It looks like we are getting pretty angry, but it is really fun for us. You see, while most people like to agree with their friends on important things, we like to have different opinions. We can not agree on anything, and that is what brings us together.
This does tend to make holiday gift shopping a little bit tricky. For years, I had no idea what to get my sister and brother-in-law, my parents, or my aunt and uncle. Then I finally realized the one thing that everyone in the family likes: food. I bought anniversary gift baskets for my parents, my siblings, and my aunt and uncle, and everyone was happy. As a matter of fact, the gifts went over so well that I decided to get them each an anniversary gift basket the next year as well.

The days are ever divine as to the first Aryans. They are of the least pretension and of the greatest capacity of anything that exists. They come and go like muffled and veiled figures, sent from a distant friendly party; but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.
| —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882) |

What is so great about anniversary gift baskets is that they almost always make perfect presents for the people who you can't shop for. Almost everyone likes to get a gourmet foods gift from time to time. It lets you indulge in something that you wouldn't normally have, whether it be fine wine, delicious summer sausage, or perfect sharp cheddar. As an added bonus, anniversary gift baskets come in that great, festive wrapping. I have always had a bit of a problem with presentation, but when I send mail order gifts, they take care of it for me. That way, the people I am buying presents for will know how much thought I put into them.
Of course, anniversary gift baskets aren't the only festive presents you can send in the mail. What makes a better get well gift than food? One time when I had the flu, my girlfriend was across the country and could not take care of me. Instead, she sent me a get well basket. It might sound strange, but it really did make me feel a whole lot better. It is always so nice to know that someone cares, and there is never a better time to indulge than when you are sick.
