Looking for Father's Day gift ideas

As far as I'm concerned, my husband has already gotten his best Father's Day gift.

In a booklet she made at preschool, my daughter said her dad is 33 years old (she was only 15 years off) and that his favorite food is salad (ha!). Young and healthy is how our daughter sees her dad. Happy Father's Day indeed!

Seriously, I get really stumped when it comes to giving gifts to my husband. He's the kind of guy who doesn't need a lot of stuff, and if he needs something, he'll go ahead and buy it himself. (I'm more the think-it-over, put it on my wishlist kind of person.)

So, I'm looking for suggestions (and I'll make sure my husband doesn't read this.) What's the best gift you've ever given to your husband?

When we only had our first born, we made my husband a stepping stone with my son's two year old footprints. The stone has since broken from being in the yard, but my husband loved it!
Other creative gifts have included: photos of both children on a mug (www.costo.com) and handprints on a platter(Paint Pots in Hillsdale). My husband loves anything the boys have had a hand or foot in!
Also, we usually spend the weekend camping or hiking Tryon creek.

One year I gave my husband a 1 day cooking class at a local Thai restaurant. Boy, was that the gift that keeps on giving! He loved the class and makes some of the best Thai food in town (hooray for me, too!).

We are going to cook some goodies: chocolate chip cookies, and maybe some banana bread. The kids like to cook, and DH loooooves chocolate chip cookies. And it's very rare that we make them.

Hey, MMM, can you tell me which Thai restaurant offered the cooking classes?

Well, I don't know if it's the BEST gift, but it's the only one I can remember: a couple of private golf lessons at Pumpkin Ridge.

We donated $85 in my husband's name to Plan USA--which will be in the form of a gift of livestock such as chickens, ducks, goats or pigs will improve an entire African family’s health and nutrition by providing an ongoing source of essential proteins such as meat, eggs and milk.

The gift will give families the opportunity to earn a living through animal farming—often providing enough money for children to attend school and receive basic healthcare. The impact of the gift will be maximized through training on how to breed, care for and sustain the animals’ productivity.

For a Dad that has everything (or even who doesn't) this gift can help change the world. What better gift is there?
