I would really like something from etsy..Last year for father's day we made a place setting of 8 of place mats and napkins so I wanted something different this year...help please

i'll go look on Etsy, but when my dad was a cook (he changed careers about 4 years ago), he loved new spices and sauces to try.  especially hot sauces :-)

What about a really nice pottery serving platter.  Or a really cool apron.

Does he like pasta? If so, I would make him a basket with fancy pasta, homemade spaghetti sauce, homemade pesto, one of those spaghetti scoops, parmesan and a parmesan shaker.?

Oh that reminds me, my uncle bought me a metal serving dish. It can be used on the stove and for serving, it is beautiful. Since it is metal it keeps the food warm and if you put something in it to defrost it defrosts faster. It is seriously one of the coolest kitchen items that I have. Let me see if I can find a link.?

What about a set of custom oven mits?  I'll bet the seller would make some in manly-man print. 

Or, perhaps a beautiful hand-turned wooden candy dish? 

Or, a ridiculously expensive but crazy-gorgeous spatula?

if you decide to go with a pasta package, you could get the spoon i posted above, a nice wooden bowl, and these tongs
