Valentine's Day Gift: Cook Her Favorite Dish

Most women have a favorite food dish they love. Find an online recipe for the dish or a cookbook that has the recipe. Bookmark the recipe in the cookbook with a brightly colored ribbon. Place the cookbook or the recipe and the nonperishable ingredients in an appropriate container. Add a perishable items right before delivering the gift. Make sure she understands that you're doing the cooking that night.

For example: If her favorite dish is lasagna, the gift would include no cook lasagna noodles, a jar of good marina sauce, a hunk of Reggiano parmesan cheese, olive oil, cheese grater, pot holders, bottle of Chianti wine, fresh mozzarella cheese and ricotta cheese. Place the items in a colander that has been lined with a couple of red checkered dish towels. You'll have fun showing off and she'll be pleased your gift is so personal.
