The Joy Of Cooking: Gifts & Recipes For Family Fun

I like the idea of giving a "family gift" to people you love. Because the kitchen is the heart of the home, something fun that the entire family can cook or create is always welcome. Since the Holidays are here, hopefully we all will take some time to just "be" together, but we have to eat. So why not give the gift of a family eating experience?
