I have about 300 to spend. my spouse loluvvies butter creme cake, but nobody sells them, even a fool proof moist cake that is not hard to make, one that i can hide in the freezer for a week and tastes indoorsey and outdoorsey, adventurousgave the age cos it might make a diference betwen bunjie jumping and something else lol. big time.for the end of day would be helpful.. any tips are welcome, from crazy to practical..thanks so much in advanced i am stressed! the reason i need a reasonable day planned is because my money doesn,t go far in new zealand. she's out doorsy, and indoorsy, likes to check out new places, fairly adventerous. loves that cake (noo idea how to make n frost one(, please help me get some ideas. any cute ideas you have done for your mate for birthday? i am veryt hankful for any help at all!


Answer
Well I'm not sure what there is to do in New Zealand and what not. Make her breakfast in bed. Maybe before her birthday take her out to some shops and see what outfits she admires and later go back and buy her one of the sexy outfits she liked and on her birthday have it in a nice box with a bow around it with a note that says something like, dinner at (insert name of nice restaurant) at 7.

Something romantic I did for my fiance, you could do similar...I took a heart shaped box and put a mixture of things in it... some were notes that listed reasons why I loved him.. some were special pictures of us together.. some were little envelopes and inside the envelope I put something I bought/made for him (a cd of songs that reminded me of him)... anyway, fold the notes so she cant see what's written and have the photos and presents in envelopes. Give the box to her like a week before her birthday, and tell her she is only allowed to pick out one thing out of the box each day. So each day leading up to her bday she will either get a love note, picture, or present from the box. Then the ones that are left on her bday, tell her she can pick out one more out of the box on each hour until they are all gone. Then on the final hour of her bday when she notices there are no more left, hand her something really special (bracelet/necklace).

What to get dad for his Birthday?

My dad's 60th Birthday is coming up.
He has 3 sons and we are making a little movie for him using pictures from 1950 to 2010. We have it up to 1974 and its turning out to be beautiful and way past my expectations.
We also planned to interview all sorts of people for my dad's past and have them in the movie but its turning out to be too much.. with 1 brother living in Israel with a pregnant wife, 1 brother in Ireland and 1 brother in New Zealand it turned out to be something we cannot accomplish.

So I am thinking about something else we can do instead to maybe add to the movie.
Also we were looking to buy him something nice and are at a loss... now I know no one here knows our father and so wouldn't know what to get him. But we were looking to buy him something from the three of us, putting into it a few thousand dollars.

Any unique ideas about the movie and about the present? Any Idea would be very much appreciated :)
thank you very much.



Answer
for the movie, instead of an interview, u should compile together some of his favorite song and movie titles and add that int here somewheres. as for the gift, if he likes photography u could get him a nice professional camera, if hes into computers, get him the latest and greatest model, if he needs a new part for his car, get it for him, if he needs something expensive for the house, give it to him. there are a lot of everyday items you can give him that he will still love. good luck!
