What's a good present for an old lady?

I have a friend of the family who is an incredible 90 years old, she moves faster than people I know 30 years younger! She lives alone because her husband is in a nursing home and I take her on errands when I'm not working. Christmas is coming up and I want to get her a little something. Previously, I given her picture frames, gift certificates to the supermarket, candy. What do you think would be a good gift?

The only thing that seems to work on the little old ladies I know is gift certificates or lots of flowers and chocolate.

Everything else, they either don't want to bother figuring out how to use, or isn't their style. shrug

A nice quilt or something she can use for the home. If she does crafts, there are some nice craft kits.

I would buy you a diamond encrusted billowy kimono.

And then I would dip you.
