Gift for a Food Lover
Thanks, Den and BobB. The books look interesting. Something with excellent photography and/or wordplay is definitely on the right track. She has been known to buy a cook book or two purely for the images and descriptions, without any expectation of ever cooking the dishes.
I like the cooking class idea, though both of us are pretty busy at the moment. For the time being, we're more "eat out" than "dine in" people. We might have to save that for later on down the road.
And yes, this is a romantic partner. Thanks for the help everybody. Any other suggestions?
Gift for a Food Lover
I'm looking for a good gift for a food loving partner. To add a twist, it can't be food itself or anything used in the preparation of food. Not being on her level of food fanaticism, I though I'd turn to the experts on this site for some help.
To get the ball rolling, my initial impulse was to find her a book, cook book or otherwise, that focuses more on the sensual and aesthetic pleasures of food. Pretty pictures, great stories, interesting biographies -- that type of thing. Great recipes would be a plus, but that's more of a secondary goal.
So, any favorite book tips you can pass along? Any gift you dream of getting or have had success giving to others? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
