If you would like to make a quieter statement to your Ex A friend told me her ex-husband sent her flowers for her birthday. I thought wow! Why would anyone divorce someone that thoughtful and loving? Then she told me he was gay and had run off to Florida with his much-older lover. So what should she get him for his birthday? I found the perfect present for any Ex or anyone getting divorced. This is one of those products where a picture is worth a thousand words. And if you got a good settlement, or want to really splurge, you can order a matching toothpick holder for only ten dollars more. But somehow the toothpicks alone seem too small and this is a time to make a big gesture..
