patchwork master large main course plate

It is partly silkscreened, partly painted by hand and is used in random combinations with other plates in the series on the table. Absolutely gorgeous.

krups gx4100 electric grinder


The GX4100 Electric Grinder by Krups has sharp stainless steel blades that can quickly mince fresh herbs and dried spices and grind coffee beans from coarse to fine in seconds. I use it primarily for grinding seeds (cloves, cumin seed, coriander seed, etc.) for Indian dishes. It's so handy!

good grips cherry pitter


I've never baked a cherry pie or canned cherries to make homemade preserves, but I can't wait to get lots of fresh cherries after seeing this Cherry Pitter by OXO. It has "a removable splatter shield that directs juices downward and prevents them from soiling your work area. When not in use, the splatter shield fits inside the front chamber and a lock holds the Cherry Pitter closed for convenient storage. Sturdy, die-cast zinc construction removes pits with ease, and soft, comfortable non-slip handles absorb pressure while you squeeze."

moomin love plate


The Iittala Arabia Love Moomin porcelain plate depicts Moomintroll and Snorkmaiden from Tove Jansson's Moomin series adorably embracing each other. Designer Tove Slotte-Elevant transferred the original drawings to Arabia's Moomin products. When I was a kid I always thought the Moomins were hippos, but they're actually trolls.
