In the past week or so I’ve swamped you with a wish list of books for Christmas gifts but today I have a mixed bag of handpicked goodies to inspire your stocking selections and an opportunity to win this childrens’ toy Kenwood mixer.
I have no ulterior motives in sharing these with you, just two out of twenty were sent to me as samples and the rest are items I just liked the look of – organised by theme of course.
All items are described left to right from top left.
Green things in my kitchen
I have previously confessed my obsession with green kitchen gadgets – so much more cerebral than option for Katie Price pink everywhere don’t you reckon?
