CP just wants all the women here to bake and send care packages!
@SCG baking is a good idea! If he likes to cook something for the kitchen is always nice. In general though, small, thoughtful gifts, nothing extravagant, if it's useful even better - he'll be uncomfortable if you spend a lot of money.

Can't speak for all Cap men, but baking my favorites for me would be a definite winner. 🙂
Okay, we're going with baking.

Thanks all - defo going with baking.
I'm going to make strawberry fairy cakes with these cartoon sugar wafer on top
Picnic type snacks rather then full on meal
I thought I'd cook him something small every week leading up to his birthday.

Twsshow much do you want to spend?
what are his interests?
I think you should get him something rather than a gift card but caps are hard to buy for. It has to be somewhat useful to him and of quality.
I've bought stuff for him in the past where I thought it was romantic or sweet or a good idea at the time but got these blank looks - obviously wasn't the right gift.
One time I wanted to take him shopping n it turned into a disaster nothing was good enough or he thought it was too expensive

I defo want him to think of me every-time he wears the gift - which is why I wanted him to pick out something he would wear in his style /size/colour etc.
They are just soo hard to buy for.
Hmmm something to help relax him - me wearing a hot outfit on the day
Something practical and useful, or antique and valuabe, or sentimental and personal. Something that makes my life easier, something I am interested in or something I can treasure and value makes me happy.
The best birthday present is not to receive one at all.
That way the Cap feels no need to reciprocate.

nah, just trying to help Sam out. I'm in the official SamCancerGirl Capricorn fan club. Hope her goat has a brain 🙂
NOT that I'd turn down anything that the Mermaids, Virgals, a few Scorpios, or VB would care to send.

Thanks CP xhugsx I'm trying to keep it low key for now and observe his reactions n see what happens.
Thank you to everyone's suggestions will bake something this week even if it's just to practice...!

It's almost cap month - well at least a month away and I'm thinkn of birthday presents....!
I want to make him his fav treats and cake. I haven't cooked for him much before and he has been dropping hints.
What else can I get for him?
I want to take him shopping would it be better to give him a gift card n then take him shopping over Xmas break when he gets back from visiting family?
