Quirky hostess gifts

This week, I will be visiting a friend of mine in New York. She's kindly agreed to put me up for a few days and for this, she deserves a gift. The only trouble is that she's something of a high roller, which means the usual gift suspects -- truffles, wine, candles -- seem a little chintzy. Anything she could possibly want for her home or her closet, she probably already has. The other difficulty is that she is on some sort of strange sugar-free diet, so I couldn't go the gourmet food route to begin with. Out of desperation, I started looking for funny gag gifts.

Luckily, she has a very good sense of humor, which leads me to believe that she would be truly amused by a set of mullet magnets. The five magnet collection features Mullet classics including the Kentucky Waterfall, the Shorty Longback (Sho-Lo), the Tennessee Top Hat, the Mudflap and the Squirrel Pelt. As an ex-Southerner, I'm sure she'll find these magnets amusing for weeks to come. I'll consider it the gift that keeps on giving, for only $11.95.
