Too cute. The french press is good too - I have a tiny one - wouldn't mind one of those bigger ones (I hope DH is reading over my shoulder) Must say, I'm not a fan of the stemless wine glasses. There is something nice about the ritual of enjoying a drink in a proper wine glass... I even used to have soda water or OJ in a traditional wine glass when I was pregnant. It makes any drink feel special! I LOVE those measuring cups. Too cute.

I, like you, prefer my wine to be fresh and sparkling. That Wine Saver Gift Set would suit me perfectly. I, like you, prefer my wine to be fresh and sparkling.

And the Ina book; I'm intrigued! As for the stemless wine glasses, eh, don't bother. So says the fancy sommelier who schooled us, er, I mean instructed us on the ins and outs of wine consumption during our cruise a couple of months ago. He says that you should give stemless glasses only to people you don't like. He really did say that. Apparently the heat from your hand does something to mess with the complicated structure of the wine. Ruins it. At least that's what I'm told. I’m loving the platters too.

I l big puffy heart love my Keurig one cup maker. Fresh coffee in an instant. Those beaded dishes are beautiful but I have had to put myself on dish restrictions. Or maybe my hubs did that.
