I have realized lately that I have a lot of people in my life who love to cook and know how to cook, so I thought for this next installment that I would focus on them. The cooks and foodies that you know and love, who go out of their way to make food taste excellent! The ones who make you feel spoiled every time you get to eat something they made. Gifting these talented people can be fun and challenging at the same time! There are so many options to choose from, you really have to look into who has the best knives or dishware since you'd be investing in them. 

So if you've been looking for ideas in your own kitchen as well, please enjoy this gift guide, and let's get cookin'! 👩🏻‍🍳🍞🍳🥘

Baby Baggu | George & Viv Milk Bottle | Dagny Pie Dish | Finex Skillet | VÉNUS MON AMOUR - BOX OF 18 MACARONS | dark chocolate candy cane 51% | white raspberry popping candy 28% | Wüsthof Gourmet 3-Piece Starter Knife Set | Icon Lidded Soup Crock | Susannah Garrod 'Tis The Season Dessert Plate | mDesignt Metal Storage Box Bin with Hinged Lid | Thomas Kinkade A Christmas Wish Popcorn Tin | The Copper Hen Cookbook | Holiday Jewel™ 3-piece Serving Set

I wanted to showcase a unique selection of items that could be for anyone who wants to be a Masterchef in their own way! Since these items will also be investment pieces, I knew that budget didn't have to be too much of a problem. Whether it's high-quality chocolate with unique flavors, a cookbook straight from the kitchen of a Twin Cities restaurant, or festive plates for the upcoming holiday season - they will surely be a hit if you want to be a sous chef! 

Gifting the he/hims and they/thems in your life can be pretty tricky - especially since you usually don't get a solid response on what they actually want. Finally being in a relationship though has opened my eyes to the subtle ways they can tell you what they like, without having to tell them to do anything! What do they like to do ALL the time? What interests them when they're searching the internet or when you're going shopping at Target with them? What a relief it is to have clear communication with a guy for the first time!

I do know that I tend to reference the same items every time I've done this guide in the past, but it's what works and it tends to always please! So please enjoy and let's get into my next guide - for the lads!
