HELP...I need to get a B-Day present for my wife
:)

She wants an excellent Vegetarian cookbook with the key being simple recipes.
Is there one down at my local Borders or Barnes & Noble?
I don't have time to order one.

THANKS!!!

2. Save the cookbook for your anniversary..
Why not go with the dinner, flowers, and jewelry approach? Maybe a day-spa, or a special weekend at the local lake.

I know this doesn't help if you really need to get her the cookbook. But I have a severe aversion to getting a girlfriend/wife something that is related to household activities.

5. yes, but if that's what she really wants, and has asked for, then he should
go ahead and get a cookbook.

For my birthday last year, I asked for (and got) a big-ass great cookbook, The New Best Recipe, by the America's Test Kitchen peeps. And this year, there are a couple more cookbooks I want. I'm not the spa type.
