You could tell him you really appreciate him doing the driveway for you and you’d like to return the favor. Is there something he especially likes from the kitchen? If he says that’s not necessary don’t push. He’s doing your driveway because it feels good to give. Pay it forward. Donate to the local food bank, animal shelter etc.
