I'm making some last-minute plans to visit a longtime acquaintance in Germany, someone I haven't seen in more than twenty years--he's a former colleague of my mom. He and his wife have invited me to their home for coffee. Should I take them a small present to thank them for inviting me into their home? If so, do you have any ideas?
It would need to be something I can get at short notice, either in Boston or in Germany.
