Silverware Dishtowels.


Big utensils photoprinted on dishtowels. Kind of the modern equivalent of those humongous wooden forks and spoons everyone had on their kitchen walls back in the day, only much more chic!

CB2 Love.

It’s been awhile since I flipped the pages of a catalog, oohing and aahing over every other page. But after returning home from my last trip to Pennsylvania to find the latest CB2 catalog waiting in my mailbox, that’s exactly what happened. Everything just feels so clean and fresh and ready to slide right into my life. If I hit the lottery or got a big bonus tomorrow, these are the pieces I’d snatch up first…

1. galvanized 12 bottle wine rack 2. go-cart 3 shelf table 3. engine barstools
4. perspective mirror 5. metal trunks 6. twiggy side table 7. pulley pendant lamp
8. gear candleholder

Warm Hazelnut Toddy.

{recipe and photo via Real Simple}

Since it’s cold as (insert male body part here) most everywhere, something warm is in order. I’m digging this twist on an old school classic in the Warm Hazelnut Toddy.

Warm Hazelnut Toddy
1 1/2 ounces Frangelico
1/2 cup hot water
2 tablespoons lightly whipped heavy cream

In a mug, stir together the Frangelico and hot water. Spoon the whipped cream over the top before serving.

Oiva Tablewear.

The Oiva tablewear collection consists of five cups, three bowls, three plates and a teapot. Am I crazy to think that these are the only things I could ever need in my kitchen cupboards? Mad love, I tell ya. (Supposedly available here as of Fall 09…) {via SeeSaw Designs}
