please help me with gift ideas
Permalink Closed


for my dad's 60th birthday this weekend.  he's extremely hard to buy for, and because it's a special birthday, i would like to do something unique and cool.  my mom's gift is a hot air balloon ride with the whole family, so no ordinary golf shirt or tie is really going to do.  please help me.

you can always "teach an old dog some new tricks" What are his interests? would he like race car driving lessons?

Does he enjoy cooking and is there a food he really likes? a cooking class could be fun (they even have cake baking classes)

rental of an exotic car and a gift certificate for him and your mom to go out to dinner would be fun... all depends on how much you want to spend...

detroit, i love you.  thank you--this is exactly the type of thing i am looking for.  he would not cook to save his own life, but the driving is more what i am looking for.  i'm going to see if my brother will go in on it with me.
