Question by Marianna G: What to include in a anniversary gift basket?
I want to make a gift basket for my parents for their 23rd anniversary. I plan to make one for each parent. Any ideas?

Best answer:

Answer by Owl Be Back
An anniversary is about two people celebrating a marriage union – each parent completes the other, and is each other’s “better half”, so divide items in half, put things in the baskets that that go together, or can be done together. A few ideas are:

- half of a puzzle in each basket (work together to make the puzzle using each other’s pieces)
- a bottle of wine in one basket, and two wine glasses in the other
- romantic movie DVD in one basket and movie treats (popcorn, candy, etc.) in the other
- tickets to a concert or local event (one in each basket)
- an empty photo album in on basket, empty pages for the album in the other (for their anniversary photos)
- bubble bath in one basket, candles in the other

… you get the idea!

Sounds of the Colorado Rockies CD

Relaxation music or mood music is essential in this process. The body subconsciously takes cues from sound and transfers that reaction directly to the muscles. So, it is important to control what sounds are heard. Relaxation music is the most effective means of controlling the ambient sound and substituting soothing sounds designed to relax. Relaxation music can range from the sound or rain or the beach to the sounds or crickets at night.

Relaxation music can be any variety of sounds from traditional instrumental music to natural sounds or even computer generated noises. White noise is a critical element of relaxation sounds. White noise is a series of sounds used to raise the ambient level of sound to drown out unwanted noises. Relaxation music uses white noise principles to hide other noises from the subconscious. For instance in a massage therapy setting, the sounds of beach waves from a CD player can be used to mask the sound of passing traffic thus allowing the subject to more fully relax. Relaxation music also uses such sounds as running streams, nights ambient sounds of the forest and the quiet sound of a heartbeat as white noise.
