Care package ideas for my LDR boyfriend?

A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been in a LDR with my boyfriend for about 15 months now. I got to see him last week and I've been in an extra lovey-dovey mood since soooo I decided to surprise him with a care package in the mail, but I'm lost for ideas. I've searched the internet for help but haven't really liked any of the ideas I've seen so far like sending pictures (I don't have very many) or sending panties (that's just plain weird to me). I save all our ticket stubs and stuff like that, but all that stuff is at my apartment where I go to school and I'm home for the summer so I can't get to those.

A while ago, he mentioned this book he wanted to read about his favorite music artist so I'm going to put that in there. I also plan on baking him some cookies. He's not too big on sweets like I am, so I'm not gonna go overboard with the baking. I also plan to include a letter confessing my undying love and desire for him (lol..something like that anyway!)

He lives at home with mom, but she doesn't cook very often and he doesn't really know how to cook even though I try to teach him when we're together, so he eats out a lot. I was thinking maybe give him instructions/ingredients to make a meal at home..something really easy but still good..but what??

I was also thinking maybe a DVD and a bag of microwave popcorn so he could have a movie night, but I'm lost for ideas on what movie to get. He loves watching movies when he's not at work and has seen a lot of them, so I feel like it'd be hard to pick a good one. Any ideas on some classics and/or new releases?

I thought about sending a little stuffed animal but I feel like that'd be too cheesy for a guy?

What do you think? What have you put in a care package for a bf in the past? And fellas, if you got a package, what would you want to find inside?

Thanks in advance for all your help! :)

RedAthena agony auntYour ideas are very sweet:)

I heard of a bf sending his gf the Tshirt he slept in..very intimate.

*It was clean, but otherwise smelled like his cologne.

Anything that looks or smells like being with you...good idea:)

*CALLING CARDS

*Anything that relates to a hobby or sport he enjoys.
