I want to show my appreciation to my lady's family for allowing me to stay the week at their home. She tells me not to worry about it, but I'd feel better bringing a small offering. Any ideas?

Chocolates and perfume for the family gals; Irish Creme Whiskey for the family guys.

Latest music CDs for the kids; inquire of your gal about their preferences.

Crotchless panties for your gal; more efficient.

Where do you come from?   Give some good souvenir from your country.  If you come from London, something to do with London.  If you come from Paris, Effifel Tower ornament, and so on.

That's in addition of chocolate, perfumes, flowers, etc. 

Please remember that chocolate, perfumes and flowers etc will fade but ornaments do not.

When I go to Russia in a few weeks I will take some Starbucks instant coffee. And for friends and others who you come across some key ring flashlights. The hallways can sometimes be dark. Only about $ 2 or so at Ace. And I like to stop at duty free store in airport and buy a bottle of scotch for the man of the house. Breaks their vodka cycle. Yes, I know it is available now in FSU cities but still expensive. Plus I usually take some $ 2.00 bills. They go over big and are easy to carry with you because you will sometimes be surprised with an unexpected gift along the way so you will be prepared.

Get a bottle of Hennessy for her dad - it is extremely popular over there, very expensive. However, people are wary of buying it there because there are so many low-quality or ouright dangerous fake ones.
You'll win his heart  :)
Good coffee and good european/american chocolate, and of course souvenirs from your country.
I would steer clear from perfume, unless she tells you exactly what she wants.

Or cloud his brain enough for Mathew's benefit. Hennessy is an excellent choice if the father drinks. I've seen it the preferred drink of some RM if it's available during a special occasion.
Fund the audits, spread the word and educate people, write your politicians and other elected officials. Stay active in the fight to save our country. Over 220 generals and admirals say we are in a fight for our survival like no other time since 1776.

OK then; crotchless panties for all the female family members.
