If you're interested in repairing your friendship with her, this could be the perfect opportunity. You could take the gift to her and her family and apologise, even if you don't think you did anything wrong. Sometimes it's not about who's right.

It's possible she has gifts for you, too, and she just doesn't know what to do. So if you're brave, I would give them, in person. Or, if you can't do that, leave them or mail them and attach a note, maybe?

One other thing--if you do apologise, make sure it's about what you did, not her. In other words, don't say "I'm sorry you were upset" or "I'm sorry you fought with me." Try "I'm sorry that I hurt you" or "I'm sorry that we got into a fight." Accept responsibility so she knows you miss her.

If you DON'T miss her or want her friendship back, well, I wouldn't give the gifts, but ultimately, it's whatever makes you more comfortable, and what you can live with.
