Gift ideas for MIL?

Does anyone have an ideas for my MIL?
She's early 50's, enjoys walking, cycling, dog walking, travelling, trying different foods etc.
However she buys what she wants/needs as and when she wants.. she's not one for fussy or expensive things.
We buy her a bottle of her favourite alcohol and usually something else but I'm stumped.
Previously done books, gloves, socks, puzzles, jewellery, nicer versions of her favourite foods.
Thanks in advance!

Travel case for jewellery?

Walking gear? One of those wet weather map holders or a new thermos for her rucksack. (And some Kendall mint cake.)

Loccitane hand cream? this one smells divine and the cherry blossom is lovely too. I always have the blue one on my desk it doesn't have a strong smell. It feels like a treat

How about a handlebar bag for her bike to put her phone, money etc in. Cycology do lovely ones, waterproof and double up as a shoulder bag when off the bike and going into cafes. (Although currently they seem to limited in designs).
They also do matching cycling gloves, socks and accessories.
Obviously, if you are getting a flask, get an unbreakable one for the bike. I use a metal one but don’t know the make sorry.

I agree - I get L'occitane almond oil shower gel at Christmas and I love it!
