The Poojer Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 my sister turns 50 and i have no idea what to get her...was thinking maybe a couple months worth of wine of the month club, or a gift certificate for a cooking class, shari's berries, harry & davids etc.....she got me a gift certificate to my neighborhood pub last year which was put to very good use....any cool suggestions that some of y'all have done before?
Guffalo Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Since I am not a big fan of my sister I give her the same thing every year. A pair of wool socks and a vibrator, if she doesn't like the socks, she can go f@$%@ck herself.
Chef Jim Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I have four sisters. They got phone calls. One is now 62, one is 61 and one turns 60 next year and the other turns 50 in four years. Yeah, big family. I suggest you don't make a big deal out of it. Women don't like to be reminded of those milestones. I have a very good friend and on her 50th I sent her a "Happy 25th anniversary of your 25th birthday" wish. She loved it!
The Poojer Posted May 20, 2014 Author Posted May 20, 2014 I always make a big deal out of her birthday because we are 'irish twins' so for 20 days each year she is as old as I am...and being that 50 is a milestone age, i want to do something somewhat nice for her...probably something to do with drinking or food I have four sisters.

LB3 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Round up your family and her friends, rent a bus and go on a wine tour. That's what my siblings and I did for my dad's 50th a couple years ago. He loved it and everyone had a blast.
ExiledInIllinois Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 My sister turned 50 last year and my brother 50 this year... Myself in 4 years and my younger sister in 8 more... I plan on doing nothing, as usual... LoL... Like Jim said... Females hate it! Actually, FWIW... My brother is probably gonna handle it the worst this year! :-O
ExiledInIllinois Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 Ha. 50. Trust me... 17 years goes by in a blink of an eye. ;-P
The Poojer Posted May 20, 2014 Author Posted May 20, 2014 you got that right! Trust me... 17 years goes by in a blink of an eye. ;-P
ExiledInIllinois Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 you got that right! Yep... Just this board alone we have been on for over a decade! Time sure flies...
boyst Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Trust me... 17 years goes by in a blink of an eye. ;-P and the second 18 years is spoken, it changes everything.
