For the cooks on that gift list, two seafood cookbooks are available that make wonderful gifts. The Great Taste of Virginia Seafood is a 275-page cookbook with color photos and over 300 recipes covering every thing from blue crab to bluefish including many holiday favorites. Virginia Waterfront Cuisine is a full color, small cookbook that gives away many of the best kept secrets of the chefs behind the fabulous food of the Chesapeake Bay region. Mouth-watering recipes include nutritional information and seafood facts. These are great to use as a stocking stuffer.
Gift baskets are a creative and personal way to spread holiday cheer.
Seafood cookbooks can be combined with other items to create a flavorful gift basket or a fishing basket for the avid fisherman. Calendars are always a great gift idea. Virginia's Watermen 2000 Calendar is a photo essay of the people who live and work on the Chesapeake Bay. This beautiful photography in a spiral bound calendar provides a gull's eye view of life on the water. Recipes, seafood facts and a seasonality chart add to its universal appeal.
