Yeah, I once asked for, and got, a steam cleaner for Christmas. I thought my best friend was going to kick hubby's ass, but it really was what I wanted. She was borrowing it soon enough.
One of the best christmas gifts I ever got was a really great set of 350 count sheets. Have you considered something that's slightly luxurious, but an everyday thing? I love those sheets, but would've never bought them for myself.
Along with the event idea... you can get gift certificates for movies and a nice restaurant... high enough amounts that she can take a couple of girlfriends out for a night out. Call the local Limo service, too, so they can all go out safely!
In any case, have a nice holiday!
