Santa must have thought I was a good girl this year. Look what he left under the tree for me.
I was happy to find that Santa had left me copies of The Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics by Ina Garten and Nigella Express by the Domestic Goddess, Nigella Lawson. I also got cooking tongs, a 10" cast iron skillet, The 'Ove' Glove and a 2.5 liter stainless steel saucepan by Beka. I had received an olive wood mortar and pestle set for my birthday a few days earlier.
My daughter had purchased a couple of signs for me when she and a friend went to Holiday World last summer.The dear thought that even I might appreciate a break from kitchen duties once in a while.
My daughter also thought I should post some rules regarding laundry. I did point out that #6 does not apply, as I refuse to iron anything.
I wonder how good I'll have to be this next year to get some of the other things on my culinary wish list?
