.: Shopping Blues

With less than 20 days before my long-awaited trip back to India, I am in lost. And lost in deciding what gifts to take back home. And it is partly due to overplanning in a few cases and lack of it in the others. I have bought the gift for my best friend and kind-of decided on what to get for my dad and grandparents but the big problem is in deciding what to get for my mom and my girlfriend. I scanned the shop at a huge mall mall in Washington DC to buy something nice, but all I ended up doing was not buy anything at all. A clear case of not being able to make the choice.

Shopping for mom always seems to be very tricky. I somehow feel rather limited in options when it comes to shopping for her. And I don’t want to buy something fancy which will not be used more than once, but something that will find use in her everyday life.

Looks like it is going to be a real toughie, but I am hopeful of finding something rather sweet and nice.
