Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Did you have a little sing a long? Bet you did 🙂
Here are just some of my favourite things from my kitchen.
We spent a lot, an awful lot of our time, in our kitchen (yesterday morning we sat down to breakfast with friends at 10 am and stood up from the table at 2.30 pm)! That’s a lot of time!
So, of course, I have things I love in my kitchen.
Here are my top 5.
1. My radio – we don’t, and never will have a tv, in the kitchen. I listen to the radio all the time in the kitchen and switch about to favourite stations and programmes depending on the time of day, and day of week.
This is old, and recycled, but I love my Roberts Radio.
2. My teapot. If you’ve ever visited us here in Redwood you will know we drink some amount of tea. And we are very particular about our tea too! It is tea leaves all the way here…. no bags please! This Le Creuset teapot makes the nicest tea ever!
3. Tea Cosy. Naturally, every teapot has to have its tea cosy. And isn’t this Rosina Wachtmeister one just beautiful?
and I have the matching oven gloves! My friend, Sheena, gave me these as a gift and I just so love them!
4. This tiny Neoflam frying pan, which was a gift to us from John of Winstons in Kilkenny. It has a ceramic coating and is so good to use.
Toasting nuts, frying eggs… all made quick and simple.
5. Bowls. I know, I know, there are only two of us but that doesn’t mean that meals can’t be served up nicely! So these beautiful Nicholas Mosse bowls are used on a daily basis.
So do you have favourite things in your kitchen?
