This is only one thing, singular, but it certainly is a favorite amongst many lovely shower gifts I received. Palindromaid A outdid herself on the gift front. I can usually count on her to get me beautiful jewelry, fun kitchen gadgets, and other little luxuries. This gift is not only practical, but largely sentimental and just perfect for a shower (or for Christmas if you're still looking for gifts). Behold:
Nothing says"Open me!" quite like the perfect wrapping job. Too bad I tore into it and then had to recreate the perfection to snap the shot above.
Oh, why Hello! What do we have here? A book with a delicious hard cover.
And it stands open. This will be important.
It's not just a book. It's a collection recipes that Palindromaid A solicited from our friends and family.
The 3 ring binder is organized by food category and tabbed for convenience.
And get this! Not only did she add the recipes, but she included pictures of the recipe giver with the recipe they donated! Here I am with Allison of the trifle bowl fame.
Did you receive any gifts that exceeded your expectations? Was it something innovative or sentimental?

Wow, that turned out awesome.
I never seen a recipe book that pretty, photos and all. I think I will be judging every recipe book I ever get now by the standards of that one! You have great friends!
I'm not at the gift-receiving stage of the engagement yet, but excited to get there in a few months!
