I recently moved to Florida and for Christmas, I'm going to get my parents a basket filled with stuff that is unique to or representative of Florida. I was thinking oranges, pecans, a bottle of wine from a local vinter...Can you think of some other things? Please note that I live in Northern Florida which is more "southern" than places farther South (ie we have no palm trees)

In addition to the other ideas mentioned, you might consider music by local musicians (Magda Hiller is my favorite North Florida musician, and her songs often describe life in Florida), as well as things related to Florida's major football rivalry (the University of Florida Gators and the Florida State University Seminoles). Don't underestimate the cultural importance of the UF-FSU rivalry; brides who plan a wedding on the day of the annual game sometimes learn the hard way, as guests may bring portable TVs to the reception party or even decline the invitation!
