Here's what I have so far... I took this off my blog, where I've been pondering the slew of weddings on the books for this summer.
:: BOOKS ::
Put together a gift basket of macrobiotic cook and reference books! Every macrobiotic family I know has their own library of books they use for diagnosis and cooking. These can be pricey for a new couple just starting out, making it a thoughtful and generous gesture as a gift.
I like The Kind Diet, Kristina Turner's "The Self Healing Cookbook" and Aveline Kushi's "Complete Guide to Macrobiotic Cooking."
:: CSA Membership ::
A CSA, or Community Supported Agriculture membership, is a way to support both a new couple AND the environment! CSA details vary from farm to farm, but the general gist is, once a week, the couple shows up at a pick-up point and loads up their basket with fresh, local, organic veggies from their local farm. Most couples I know are young, broke, and unused to cooking for themselves. A prepaid CSA membership provides them with high-quality fresh ingredients that support a macrobiotic lifestyle.
I've got the rest on my blog, http://snackrobiotic.blogspot.com/
I hope this helps some of y'all!
