I've been obsessing about a few things lately and I thought I'd share since (GASP!) gift giving holiday season really, honestly, is right around the corner!!!
1. I saw this fantastic little set the other day and I can't stop craving it:
Seriously.... is it possible to have a cuter tea set?
2. Ever since I got my copy I've been cooking from it. It's not flashy, glossy or celebrity-chef-y. It's just simple and fantastic. The recipes are easy to follow, easy to understand and undeniably French.
You really can judge this book by its cover.
3. My apron obsession has recently been rekindled by a purchase I made at a local street fair. While you may not be able to get your hands on the awesome vintage tea-towel, reversible half-apron I picked up...
Etsy has some truly fabulous one of a kind aprons.
4. I have always had a soft spot for the original Alice in Wonderland drawings and these pieces by Fishes Eddy make me want to imbibe everything that has a "drink me" tag on it!
5. I know coupe's are "not great for champagne"... but really who lets it sit long enough for the bubbles to escape?
There are an amazing array of these on Ebay, I prefer the multi-colored myself.
Here's to the holidays!

Of course I love those champagne glasses but it's the cookbook that made me die 1,000 little deaths. Must Not Buy More Cookbooks, tho!
Happy birthday! Hope today is filled with synchronicity and magic (do I sound like a fairy?)

The very best kind of fairy!! I too have decided that that HAS to be my last cookbook purchase until I move. I mean its gotten to crisis levels. Of course each time I say that I find the *perfect* book that I MUST have very soon after....

I share your passion for cookbooks, Erin. It can be a problem come moving time but, I have to have my books.
I did not know November 17 was your birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERIN!
