Gift for a Muslim woman in my team for high performance at work

Hi all,

Someone on my team is receiving an award next week for high performance in our department.

She is a Muslim who wears a hijab.

She is also pregnant but I'm keen not to make the gift focussed on this - id like it to be for her and not for the baby, as she will be getting baby gifts when she goes on mat leave, and not everyone at work is aware yet.

This also sometimes makes her ill and she eats very healthily, so chocolate is not an option.

Unfortunately when I ask about her weekend she usually mentions she was just relaxing or seeing friends, so I'm not aware of any clear hobby. I do know that she misses Egypt in terms of weather and family.

I have considered:

-A voucher for an Egyptian food delivery store, but I am concerned she'd have to pay out of pocket for delivery

-A Hijab set or voucher of Muslim clothing store, however I don't think this hits the mark. I want to make sure I'm being considerate of her culture without something that comes across like "you're a Muslim so you must want a Hijab".

-Thought about some nice stationery but this feels like it's for work purposes

-A women only spa voucher - but could be difficult with her pregnancy

-Other more general Voucher ie John Lewis

Any Egyptians / Hijabi women with any nice ideas please?

Looking to spend around £75
