I am having a big birthday next month and I can't think of a big gift that we need or I want so DH decided to buy me 30 small gifts. He asked me to make a list of more than 30 so he can pick them.

Can you help me? Of course when I'm asked to make a list, I can't think of anything!!!

It can include kitchen things, entertainment, apparel, judiaic, anything

This is hard without knowing you, what you have, what you like to do, what your kitchen looks like, etc. I'll try a few.

Magnetic knife rack for keeping knives or other kitchen tools on a strip on the wall.

Good citrus squeezer for oranges, lemons, or limes. Or good garlic press, if you don't have one.

CD that you enjoy listening to.

Gift certificate for manicure, if you don't regularly get one.

App for phone or ipad that is useful.

Steering wheel cover for cold or hot days in the car.

Coupon for something DH will do that you like. (Massage, night out, he cooks and cleans up, whatever)

Check out Peradi!
I've ordered from them in the past,
They have scented sachets with initials that can be put into linen closet or hung on the doorknobs. They also have monogrammed towels as well.

I would tell you to go on a 'shopping trip' head to a few stores with a pen & paper and check out all of the cool things you would never buy for yourself:
Kitchen store (or outlet). So many fun thing available, it just depends what you like to do in the kitchen- asst cookie scoops, avocado slicer, julienne peeler, fancy baking pans/molds cake decorating tools, etc
Bed bath & Beyond (they will also have some of the kitchen stuff)- cozy slippers, cushy towel, make-up, sleep mask, all kinds of massage & skin care products, etc.
Enjoy!!!
