Especially if you're gluten free (because anyone who eats gluten free bread will tell you they could take a trip to Jamaica and return home and their toast still wouldn't be brown in a normal toaster) because this toaster is super fast and makes perfect toast each time every time. We call it the disco toaster too - because the colours change as it cycles through the different cooking stages.

Still in need of some ideas? Last year I was asked by quite a few of you what was on my own personal wish list, so I thought I'd share some extra ideas with you - plus my favourite places to shop!
A Mixer with a Splash Guard (because I'm always making a mess) | A Madeleine Tin (or any unique baking tins that I don't already have!) | A New Dinnerset for our House (as we all hate our square plates!) | Loose Base Dessert Tin (for making cheesecakes!) | Gluten Free Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day (because, er, did you just read that?!) | A Cast Iron Skillet (and a cast iron cornbread wedge skillet!)
I can never have enough baking tins/dinnerware pieces/servingware pieces/cake stands being a blogger and someone who loves to bake, cook and entertain so my family know that's pretty much a winner in the gift department when it comes to me!
But tell me, do you have any foodie gift ideas to share?
What's on your wish list this Christmas?

ReplyDeleteI and Antonio has been together for 5 years. We both put our capital together to open a supermarket and since then we have been living happily without any problem. I always discuss about marriage with Antonio but he replies me with, we will soon get married. I was surprise on Friday evening when I was in my brother's house,Antonio called me on phone and told me that we can no longer carry on with the relationship because he has find himself a rich a lady whom he want to get married to. I shocked and hospitalize for 4 days. I was so tired and tried to take my life because I truly love him. All the investment was opened in his name and signature and I am left with nothing. One Sunday evening when I was searching online for help, I was directed to Akwukespiritualtemple@gmail.com I contacted him and he told me what I need to provide for him to bring back my happiness and within 3days after he cast the spell on him,Antonio realize himself and come back to me,we are happily married.
