What are you getting your WAGs for X-mas/Hanukkah/Festivus/etc?

[RustedFox]

Don't post if you're going to get out-ed.

I'm hoping that someone says something that kicks off some free-association engram in my brain that gives me an awesome idea.

Mrs. Fox doesn't read the forum (I'm 90 +/- 5% sure - I'm taking a calculated risk), so I'll say that she's getting some memorabilia from a recent travel experience as one of her gifts.

We have no kits, so there's none of that.

"WAGs" = wives and girlfriends, as appropriate... for those who didn't know.

Bought her Honda CRV touring edition she's wanted for awhile paid in full.

Yeah, I hate you.
Anyone else ?

Wow. Lucky Mrs. gamerEMdoc. We all hate and admire you, even more.

You mentioned she’s into chefs, right? Does she buy herself all of their cookbooks? Cooking classes?

Got mine the Aviary and Dead Rabbit cocktail books.

His birthday is in January and I want to get him a monthly massage membership.

Buying a house and going to France for 3 weeks in June/July. Obviously, none of this is a surprise to her. But we're not buying more "stuff" before we move in January.

Eh, broke intern. Mrs. Medic is getting the New Orleans Jazzfest poster from a few years ago featuring Jimmy Buffett.

For anyone who is into cooking, a sous vide is a game changer.

A new set of drill bits that I got a great deal on ($20 for $80 bits) and a new set of gear wrenches. He mechanics as a hobby.

Which one do you have?

 

[res1cue]

Anova. They are really all pretty similar, i think. Bluetooth and all that not necessary

A big bucket is important though

Tel me more. Cooking in a plastic bag scares me.

 

[dchristismi]

I got an Instant Pot for Prime Day, and I love it. The sous vide thing seems weird - and we love to cook. (Not that I've tried it, but...)
I hinted to DH that we needed new pillowcases. He mentioned floor mats for his SUV. Christmas isn't a big thing for us, and he overdid our anniversary, so we're low-keying it this year.

What’s a wag?

It sounds weird but its amazing. Most importantly you can take a 2inch thick ribeye and sear the outside and a couple mm deep to the sear it is all uniformly perfect.

We use it for lamb chops, chicken thighs, steaks, chuck roasts, pork chops. I swear by it now.

If your other half is into premium coffee, then perhaps a breville infuser or delonghi magnifica espresso maker might make her happy. Double win if you you’re into that.

I love my ninja coffee bar. Great coffee maker that also makes a concentrated coffee that mimics espresso for latte's. Very easy to use. Makes a great gift.

Read the OP. Last line.

Which noise-cancelling headphones do you guys recommend? Bose? Beats? Skullcandy?

Wife asked for a new set this year, actually. Her old ones are Bose. They were awesome .

 

[gamerEMdoc]

Bose noise canceling headphones are amazing. Though honestly, I rarely use mine because the apple airpods are just so convenient to carry in your pocket. Both are awesome gifts.

Shouldn’t it be WOG??? If you have both, that seems....expensive.....

Only if you’re caught.

And a few nice winter jackets as my answer.

 

[bravotwozero]

Yeah, ditto on the jackets. Can’t go wrong with a Burberry trench coat. (made in England, not China)

Another thing to consider for the foodie types - aged balsamic vinegar. I’m talking about the real stuff, not the cheapo bottles at your local grocery store (which are fine for everyday use).

Look for the word traditional specifically. Usually in Italian, it says acetico balsamico tradizionale. You’ll either find this on eBay/amazon or a traditional Italian grocery store. It’s barrel aged for at least 10 years by law.
