Need Help - Gift for the NICU Nurses?
I want to send the LIJ/Cohen's Childrens Hospital NICU a gift for taking care of Emily for 3.5 weeks. I was going to do an edible arrangement but they are expensive and I'm nervous that I'd have to spend over $100 to have enough fruit for everyone. So then I was thinking cupcakes but I cant find a place locally that it is known to have good ones and delivers (any recommendations would help).
Does anyone have any recommendations? I am not looking to spend too much money but I want something that would be enough food for a lot of people. Thoughts??
TIA!
eta - i just realized i posted this here instead of parenting - but since you girls know me best anyway - any suggestions??

What about ordering in lunch, sandwiches, salads, cookies and fruit from a local deli?
Also try cookiesbydesign.com. They have yummy cookie baskets and it's not so expensive. Maybe you can do one fruit and one cookie?

These cookies are SOOOO yummy. Check out the site. I know they deliver bc my MIL used to always receive these from someone as a gift every year.

I would otherwise have suggested "cookies by design" but they might be more money for less.
