Appliances To Add Electricity For The Lovebirds
To add electricity to your favorite lovebirds’ home, look no further than appliances. For the ultimate breakfast in bed, you can grab them a sandwich maker that will guarantee them to have all their breakfasts in bed and stay out of cafes. With that perfect crunch, they’ll be coming back for more bites. You can get your hands on this sandwich maker either from Jumia or Amazon.
Kitchenware That Newlyweds Would Need
Starting with the essentials, kitchenware. You can get the pair a cute tea set to pull out for their fancy guests. Everything tea related and more can be purchased from stores like Tulipe which has branches all over Cairo. They would also appreciate having a new set of kitchen cutlery knives in their kitchen. They can be purchased anywhere from Ikea to Elshawwa giving you a selection of styles at various prizes to select from. These are only a few suggestions when it comes to kitchenware, but at the mentioned stores you can essentially find anything kitchen or homeware related for that matter.
Nothing Says I Love You More Than Cookbooks
Now that your friend has the kitchenware, it’s a goal that she uses them so why don’t you get the couple a cooking book? What’s screams romance more than learning how to cook together? The pair can travel the world through eclectic recipes and dishes a lot with a tie of an apron and a flip of a page. Some cookbooks that are great to get them started are Nehal Leheta’s Authentic Egyptian Cooking: From The Table of Abou El Sid if they want to start off with trying to cook local dishes. You can purchase one at the local bookstores such as Diwan. But for a trip to Lebanon, opt for Rose Water and Orange Blossoms: Fresh & Classic Recipes from my Lebanese Kitchen by Maureen Abood which you can get through Amazon and a Kindle, online version is also available.
