Hmm like 30-50 I'd say. We're not doing a formal gift exchange, but I think it's nice to get him something.

Does he go out for lunch? You could always get him gift cards for his favorite lunch spots. I feel for you. Nothing is harder than buying a gift for someone you know little about.

I don't even understand how gin could have different tastes. It all tastes like Christmas trees to me. ?????????Rhea|1416901906|3790107 said:Thanks, Distracts! I've been reading along, trying to get ideas for my family. My husband loves gin and your post reminded me about a gin place in town that does this.

(except for the cigars) Are you sure you're not married to my husband?
jill_s|1417017750|3790719 said:Also, I'm originally from KY and love some good bourbon. One of my particular favorites is Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Has he tried that before? It's amazing. We also love to make cocktails with bourbon and a Ginger Liquor that we recently discovered called The Big O. It's a delicious combination.

After heavy hints from him a few years ago I got him the Dragon Age (I can't remember which one) video game for Christmas. He's the one who introduced me to comics, and is now introducing our kids to comics and cartoons. Right now Ultimate Spiderman and Samurai Jack are on heavy rotation, but previously the xmen, avengers and justice league were the big ones.
Nowadays my husband reads more graphic novels and independent work than superhero comics. Lots of good stuff there. I can ask him for recommendations if you wanted to branch out.
