This is such a guest power move: send your gift ahead of you. Do it when you're staying at your boyfriend's parents. You will necessarily go up in his mom's esteem - but that doesn't mean she'll like you. It's everything you want in a hostess gift -low effort, high impact. The merch included is *supposedly* worth hundreds of dollars and it arrives nicely packaged. Added bonus, anything the recipient doesn't like (fringe earrings, batiked towel, Kate Somerville moisturizer) is significant enough to make a great re-gift.
