Gifts for REAL MEN who like to Cook

It's time to start looking for Christmas presents if you don't want to be that gift giver who waits until the last mintue and pays WAY too much for junk that everyone else has picked over.   

YOU DON'T WANT TO BE THAT PERSON, DO YOU?

So my first task is to find a present for a casual single male friend who celebrates Christmas with us.  He is a super cool guy (Women, take note) who, among other things, loves to cook.  So I am headed to Amazon in search of the perfect gift.  Although I have known him for years, I have never been in his house, which makes this whole thing harder... He is a builder, and last year I bought him a cup with a tool for a handle.  So you can see, the gift does not have to be expensive, just thoughtful.


Here's my first idea:

I Don't Always Cook Oh Wait Yes I Do | Chef T-Shirt


Wow, this is almost perfect! This guy is a woodworker. Actually, he installs and sells doors and windows.

OK. This is even MORE perfect for a man who works with his hands and tools and loves to cook:

Fred THE OBSESSIVE CHEF Bamboo Cutting Board, 9-inch by 12-inch


WARNING: FOUL LANGUAGE AHEAD

I wish I knew if he had any of these books.  I am guessing he might. If I knew he didn't, I'd get him one because I think he'd like them. I follow this author on FB and he has some pretty good recipes, and if you can overlook his language, he's an interesting author and chef.  I think my friend would enjoy him.



NOW THIS:   My friend is a man who has a drill.  No question about that. And he would probably appreciate this set of kitchen brushes that work with a drill. What do you think?

And last, if we decide to spend a little more, I know this friend likes his steak, and what man would not LOVE this set of German steak knives in their own woodend holder?

Now, I am going to let my husband pick one of these gifts for our friend and get it ordered and put away for Christmas.  One gift down and many to go, but I am NOT waiting until the last minute this year.

Yes, the links above will earn me a few cents if you use them to buy gifts. Thank you!
