Here's the thing; a cookbook is just about the ideal holiday gift, and here's why. It's a perfect hostess gift because it's thoughtful and isn't the classic food or alcohol, plus it can arrive in two days thanks to Amazon Prime. Alternatively, if you're gifting someone who genuinely loves to cook, they'll be excited to try out some new recipes, maybe from some of their favorite chefs or celebrities.
