"At this time of year, not a day goes by that someone doesn&amp;#039;t ask me to recommend items as a wedding gift (or for her shower registry). So to help those of you who can&amp;#039;t stop by the office to chat with me, I thought I&amp;#039;d share with you the items I think any bride and groom would love to have. The prices here are the manufacturer&amp;#039;s suggested retails but do shop around \u2014 almost everything is available at deep discounts.   1. All-Clad Stainless Steel Cookware Always tops in our cooking tests and so beautiful to look at! Even a small omelet pan ($90) would be a welcome addition in anyone&amp;#039;s kitchen.   2. JK Adams Cutting Boards Made in the USA, these hardwood boards are a pleasure to cut on. For prep work, I always recommend the largest size the cook&amp;#039;s countertop can accommodate but the smaller ones make beautiful cheese servers. Prices start as low as $10.   3. Wusthof Knives You don&amp;#039;t have to go broke buying a whole set. An 8-inch Cook&amp;#039;s knife ($120) and a utility knife ($55) are all they really need. Or choose the serrated Tomato Knife ($90), which is also perfect for bagels or cheese.   4. Le Creuset French Round Oven It may not make them better cooks but when they bring this 4 1/2-quart enameled cast iron casserole ($280) to the table it&amp;#039;s sure to whet their guests&amp;#039; appetites. Available in lots of beautiful colors \u2014 I&amp;#039;m partial to the original flame orange.   5. KitchenAid Stand Mixer The first time she makes chocolate chip cookies, she&amp;#039;ll be singing your praises. Until she actually uses it, it&amp;#039;s eye candy on the countertop. White is nice, but why not wow her with one of the gorgeous colors in the Artisan line ($349.99).   6. Oster Classic Beehive Blender Time and time again, this model ($80) comes out number one in our margarita trials. It has only a single speed but that&amp;#039;s enough for perfect party drinks or everyday soups.   7. Nespresso Espresso Maker While they probably would never buy one for themselves, with mortgage payments on the horizon, they&amp;#039;ll be thrilled to have one of these super-easy to use machines that make excellent espresso every single time. Models start at $200.   8. Breville Die-Cast 2-Slice Smart Toaster Make their mornings with this champion toasting machine ($130).   9. Bodum Air Double Wall Glasses My newest love: They look so good, are so pleasant to hold, and best of all, keep the coffee hot and the iced tea cold. You can choose everything from tiny espresso cups ($30 for 2) to oversized mugs ($40 for 2).   10. Cuisinart Food Processor The first of its kind in the US and still the best. If they&amp;#039;re already serious cooks, spring (or chip in) for one of the larger models. If they&amp;#039;ll be making budget meals just for themselves, the Prep 7 ($129) will quickly chop the onions and carrots and mince the garlic and herbs.
