When one of my uncles hit 3 figures afew years ago, I sent him a special bottle of Irish whiskey. This time, it's my daughter's MIL. I don't have enough photos to make up a book, nor can I bring myself to resort to Champagne and chocolates. She'll get those a-plenty, together with flowers...
All ideas gratefully received.

I am assuming she is French? In the UK you can get a (facsimile) copy of The Times, Telegraph etc of the date of birth for the recipient.
I wonder if Le Monde offers something similar?

It seems Le Monde was founded in 1944.
