Kalpurnia's gift guide part 4 - give the gift of a gift card

The gift card. Formerly known as the gift certificate. The gift you get someone when:
A) They are your secret santa for the office Holiday Party
B) They are your father's sister's husband's second cousin's son
C) You just don't know what to get them

Let's take this opportunity to give gift cards another chance. They aren't just for Starbucks anymore. Here are a few of my recommendations that will be sure to please your friends, relatives, and that weird guy at the office.

Cooking Classes ⌘
Master Chef Cooking Classes offers classes in all types of culinary fare. Baking, roasting, basting, you name it. Just go to their website and select your city to get started. If one of my close friends is reading this, I highly recommend you taking a class and then making me something like this:


⌘ The Melting Pot ⌘
'Cause who doesn't like fondue

⌘ Amazon ⌘holida
They literally sell everything

⌘ Hotels ⌘
Consider buying your loved ones a gift card to The Mandarin Oriental or The Ritz Carlton. They will thank you.
Spa Aficionado
Here I am taking a soak in the Rota Carlton Pool...I'm in great shape!
⌘ An Experience ⌘
Cloud9 Living offers action and adventure and anything else you can think of. You can choose from experiences such as:
-learning to fly a helicopter
-bungee jumping
-tandem sky diving
-bull riding 
AND LOTS MORE
The best part is you don't have to choose - just buy a gift card and let your favorite holiday gift recipient do their own choosing
Bull Riding School in Houston
Here I am learning to ride a bull...not as hard as it looks

Well folks, I hope that these gift guides have been helpful to you. Happy shopping!!
