I saw this case from Casetagram the other day, and thought what a fantastic way to bring some of your photos to life, and in a practical way. I love Instagram, along with many other fantastic photo apps on the iPhone, which probably means I am taking more photos than ever, but leaving them [...]

Firebox is one of those great internet businesses that has lasted the course, and just keeps getting better. I’ve written before about some great choices from them, and here’s my choice of some of them for this Christmas: Chocolate pizzas have been around for a couple of years, so this is a nice [...]

Dear Santa, I’ve been thinking…

It’s unusual for me to think about my own list so early, I know. But a mass baking session on Saturday, and a big lunch gathering yesterday left me with a few thoughts. So just in case you’re getting organised now: 1. Please can I finally have a KitchenAid mixer? Really, I’m not fussy about [...]

Let me just say this first: I love this book! I was sent The Cookiepedia as a review copy, and I love it. I even cope with the fact it doesn’t tell you a helpful conversion for a stick of butter, other than cups or tablespoons, but other than that it’s a delight. I mean, [...]

Baking hit or miss?
August 31st, 2011 · 2 Comments · Baking, British favourites, Foodie gadgets, Foodie gifts, Kitchenwares, Places to shop online
I think it’s probably quite clear that I am both very fond of my baking, and therefore also have an unhealthy amount of love for Lakeland too. A new catalogue and new gadgets is always a moment of quiet joy. So I’m really not sure about why I’m not sure about the Victoria Surprise [...]
Oven gloves at the ready

I’ve kind of lost track of how long I’ve had my oven gloves but from looking at them I think it’s possibly time for a new pair. Lets face it, if you’re going to be cooking you really could do with decent gloves to hand. A bit like tea towels, I think these are the [...]

For caffeine cravers and gadget geeks

I was tweeting the bad news on Sunday that our beloved Gaggia coffee machine had suddenly stopped working. Like between breakfast and elevenses. And I say our beloved, but it’s very clearly been Dr T’s machine, as it is quite temperamental, being Italian. So the twitter fonts of knowledge pointed me in the direction of [...]
More tea, vicar?

Just a quick post, as I spotted this new flask from Marmite. I’ve written before that I sit most markedly in the hate camp when it comes to the taste of Marmite, but I do love their imagery. And I love a good flask! This strikes me as more of a flask for tea, rather [...]

Useful Russian cuteness

Not words that you often put together, but just how cute are these? I’ve had the same measuring cups for years, and they still do a great job, but how could you not want to give kitchen space to these? I found these at Strawberry Fool, good site, and 10% off across the store with [...]
A Bobble for your water

I think I’ve been a bit slow to pick up on these, and in fact spotted them in City Super in Hong Kong on my last visit, but am quite keen on the Bobble water bottle. Not only does it look pretty funky (and comes in a big range of colours) but is a portable filter for [...]
