Help me Christmas shop

I have no idea what to get my husband for Christmas.  We normally don't exchange gifts and do something for the house instead but I know he bought me something last week.  I am at a loss.  Make suggestions.  Preferably between $50-100.

Re: Help me Christmas shop

  • My H loved this when I got it for him last year. He chose the scent after sampling out of this kit, and I went to get him his full sized after (since he hates the mall). :)

  • Cooking, gardening...stuff like that.  He just already has everything that he wants that we can reasonably afford.  And for the love of God, he does NOT need any more pots.

    He actually not-so-subtly reminded me that he wants a knife roll so he can bring them when we travel (coughnerdcough).  So I guess I'm getting that.  Suggestions are still appreciated though.

  • Ooh that's a tough one.  They have a few cool looking kitchenware type shops around BR, I guess he probably knows about them all if he's into cooking enough to want a knife roll for traveling, but I know some of those places offer cooking classes.  Maybe?  No?

  • We have this cookbook and love it!

  • Ooh, good find, E!  That looks promising.

    Val - ask anyone who has been to my house and they will tell you that we are literally, overrun with cookbooks.  I refuse to purchase any more of them until he gets rid of some that he already has and never uses.  I'm telling you, I married the hardest person ever to shop for.

  • If he hinted at something he wants and you don't have anything else in mind, get him that!

    OO! For the stocking stuffer, a cute ornament that says "daddy" on it.

    Bwahaha! Love it.

     Would he like any clothing? My H hates shopping so a lot of times I'll get him a nice pair of shoes or sweater that maybe he wouldn't go get for himself. Does he need a new wallet or a watch? DH wanted one of those nice leatherman tools one year. That's all I got...

    YOU ARE SO SMART!  His everyday watch broke just last week.  I can totally get him another one.  You'd think I'd be able to figure these things out for myself...

  • I got DH a few random things.  Some kind of survival cord bracelet he wanted, I don't know.  Paracord or something?  Also I got him a Himalayan Salt Plate from Sur la Table.  He was interested in it when we went in there, apparently you can grill on it.  Got him a wok, and also a little IPOD dock where you can listen to the music, it was from Pottery Barn and looks like an amp.  Great for him since he's got big huge amps all over his music room!
