I am a little obsessed with the look of these glass kettles. My tendency for being a klutz in the kitchens however, will keep me from buying one. I feel very lucky that my Chemex coffee maker is still around... We actually DID have to replace one, but it wasn't my fault ;)

need:

I feel like I need a way to have more time, but in reality, things will fall into place so that everything will find it's own little space.... There is a ton of exciting new things I am involved in so early in the new year, and it has been a little bit of a challenge to figure out where to spend any free time I have. I do have my hands in several pots at the moment, and am having a hard time pushing any ideas to the side. I don't think I am gonna scrap anything just yet, but more time to devote to the things would be AWESOME and the time change in the Spring will definitely help out with that a lot!

hear:

This is an all around good book to have on hand 'just in case' you ever need it. Ha! I am going to attempt to learn how to do a little canning this year (hopefully, that is if my garden grows.....) and other ways of preserving food. I actually got this book at "Ollie's' in Athens for $6, but you can also purchase the exact same book online at Amazon HERE if you aren't near Athens...
