We (the bloggers here at My Kidz Bookshelf) have no problem finding gifts for one another! We share a lot of the same interests and know what the other one likes! So, nope, gift-giving is never a problem!

But, for the husband/father of the house, that's another story!


He has particular tastes - which seem to change with the seasons - and it has taken us a while to finally figure out what gifts he loves!

You can ask my husband/blogging partner's father what he wants for any holiday or birthday and his number one response is...food!


He loves to eat, he enjoys some special snacks, a good lunch or dinner you name it! From preparing a burger on the grill to heading out for a bite to eat, food is his favorite!
