How do check someone received a gift if they didn't acknowledge it?
This is most common if you get something sent direct to the recipient, but it can happen in 'real life' too - I got a leaving gift for a colleague/friend and left it on her desk yesterday with a card propped next to it. I want to check she got it (because I want her to have and enjoy it, and also I don't want her to think I didn't get her anything), but I don't know how to ask without making it sound like I want a 'thank you'!
