Unique Items

Does everyone love Anthropologie as much as I do? If I could, I would buy the entire contents of their website (at least all of the home goods) at once! Maybe their items are all made in China (God I hope not!) but they all have such an artisanal, and at times antique-ish quality that I just love. Something that I might find in one of the antique mills in upstate NY. I would love to have these coordinating serve-ware sets off their website: Salad servers and Serving Ladles.

Speaking of artisanal items, I love Beekman 1802. Not only do these gentlemen live organically and seasonally at their home/farm in Sharon Springs, NY, but they have involved the local craftsmen to create a line of fabulous house and bath wares (and yummy Goats Milk cheese!). I really would love to have their Fruit Spoon and their Iron Blocks. 

Things I Love in the Kitchen

As anyone who knows me can attest, I love kitchen things. I love to cook well, and I like to have tools that help my cook. A few Christmases ago, my husband was lovely enough to get me a three-piece Global knife set. They are super sharp and I very much enjoy using them. I would love to expand my knife set at some point, and I would love to do so with some of these lovely Shun knives from Sur La Table. I just adore the wooden handles!
