Help Pakistan Auction

So there was an earthquake in Pakistan and a lot of people are in trouble. Lots of enterprising people have set up [livejournal.com profile] help_pakistan, an auction offering all sorts of fandom and non-fandom things to the highest bidder, and benefiting a number of relevant charities, such as the Red Cross/Crescent, UNICEF, and many others. Although the previous auction, [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti, was wildly successful, I did not find the time to participate.

Now I'm asking (as far and wide as this reaches, if you're reading this on your network page or such), what should I offer?

My writing skills are comatose. I can offer beta services for original fic or a few fandoms. I can offer a box od Jerusalem-related goodies. I can possibly offer home-made baked goods, although I don't know how my skills measure up. I could make something with something that's grown locally and is in season, for example. I'm trying to think about filling a niche, since I'm pretty sure I could be outdone in most things.

Any ideas are welcome.

I'd offer a box of Jerusalem goodies. That's something that basically no one else will be in a position to offer and people would consider a pretty rare treat.
