Apart from the usual clothes and maybe a gadget, I’m thinking of getting him the book “She Comes First”!!!

Also maybe a mug that says "I'm stressed and need a short time out" so he can simply hand me a nice hot drink before he goes off for a cooling off period whenever the need arises to quietly think about whatever is ailing him - then I'll know to just leave him be for a while. (They also have a mug saying “I’m not scared of the silent treatment” – might treat myself to this!)

But I’m still looking for other ideas – what presents have you got up your sleeve to make your spouse smile (or otherwise) this year?

see here for mugs.

What I'm getting my wife is from the National Geographic webstore. My wife is very proud of her heritage and her hometown. So I ordered a puzzle of her hometown with her house as the center. It's very cool.

I already bought the gift from him to me, I couldn't wait and I'm glad I did. I got a 14 cup cuisinart food processor, the discontinued model.. I absolutely love it and so does my family since I'm cooking like crazy! I cook quite a bit anyways, but the FP has made my life easier since I like everything made from scratch.

I'm getting hubby new shoes for his bike. He has a triathlon bike and needs new shoes for it.

We usually never exchange gifts, but I really wanted a food processor for making bread. I didn't want my kitchen aid to burn out from the bread since I have an old version and they don't make the kitchen aids solid like this.

Dr Rockstar - It's great when you can give something that you know will be 'right up their street' (pun intended).

IILWMH - You are a star for choosing a gift which will benefit not only yourself but the entire family. Can anyone not love the smell of baking bread?
