our best bites

You know how I LOVE a good lookin' cookbook...how exciting is this? Two of our favorite food bloggers have come up with a cookbook. I can't wait to pick one of these up in February

...just in time for Kyle's birthday of course! ;)

wish list

Look how cute. Right up my alley. See where you can get them here.

Same girl shared these...

...and these.

See why I love Stephmodo.

Tasting Party

I when I saw this line I fell in {LOVE}

...I just knew it would be perfect for all those dinner parties I don't have,

but I am slowly building my collection...just in case.

feast for the eyes

Isn't Bakerella amazing?

I think her new book would be so fun to have...

and on her blog she featured this recipe that came from another really-cool-must-put-on-my-wish-list book...

washi tape

I think these vases decorated with tape are fabulous. See the details on one of my favorite blogs...hostess with the mostess. I can think of about one million things to do with this cute tape...another item for the wish list.

It seems to pay off every time I put something from my wish list up on my blog...so that is why you see this lovely pressure cooker here today. I went to a pressure cooking class this week and was totally impressed. The teacher was Kellene Bishop, from preparednesspro.com. She cooked risotto in under 10 minutes and a pork roast in 21 minutes...and they were both SO tasty. I have decided I need one of these for everyday use, but for emergency preparedness as well. Of course this is the best pressure cooker out there and it is made in Switzerland. It is only $240 dollars, so it may just sit here on the wish list for a while, but someday I will be cooking roast in only 20 minutes...just you wait! You can check it out here.
