Can you please help me with Host/Housewarming Gift Ideas?

Asked by hearkat (22917points) June 14th, 2009 from iPhone

I recently met a very nice man and we had an enjoyable conversation. We’ve talked a bit since, and went on a date last week, which went quite well.

For our next date, he’s invited me to his new house. He’s recently moved there, yet also recently inherited much of what he’ll need. I’d like to bring something, but I have no clue!

Initially, he was planning to cook dinner for us, but once I told him how I love sushi, he started to reconsider and has not decided if he’ll cook or if we’ll get sushi… so that makes it tough to bring something that is complementary to the meal.

I can’t drink wine because of sulfite sensitivity, so that’s out. He hasn’t got a pet because he doesn’t have the time to spend with one, and I don’t get the sense that a houseplant would be a good idea.

All I can come up with is bringing dessert – which is fine – but I had also wanted to bring something more… more…
what’s the word? Tangible? Lasting?
Gah!

I hope that someone among you understands, and can help me out! Thanks!
