Another gift I like, is a gift certificate to a higher end grocery store or supply store: Bylerlys, Lunds Kowalski, Trader Joes, Penzeys, etc. is always a nice gift for a foodie.

12. Knives. They already have all the knives they need, and better knives that you will buy them.

13. Kitchen gadgets or cookware. If they like it, they already have it. See "Knives."

14. "Specialty" foods. Please, no gourmet mixes, seasonings, or sauce packets. We make our own.
