Most of the food lovers and cooks and chefs I know are always busy taking care of their families or patrons. During this Holiday Season of food, shopping, rushing here and there, and wrapping of presents, tell me what you want Santa to bring YOU this Holiday Season.

Close your eyes and dream (just as you might have done as a child) and think very hard about that one gift you'd like to see when the gifts are opened. Remember that sometimes imagining something nice is just as fun as receiving it. Who knows ... maybe a miracle gift will appear for some of you. Believe.

believing like a child, gift wishes, sharing

I would dearly love to receive an Artisan Kitchen Aide Mixer. The one I have is 20 years old and is beginning to sound a bit cranky.

  I'll be firing up my oven and turning on Mr. Cranky later today. I love him. Perhaps he just needs a tune-up. Now that's an idea. (?)

I want a new stove. My oven works good some times but the other day it cooked cookies in 5 minuets. Scaryand I replaced all the parts they told me to. So I am wanting a new one.

  Five minutes! That is way too hot. In the interim get one of those stand-up oven thermometers to indicate the correct temperature. I hope Santa will bring you a beautiful new stove. Merry Christmas Amybyrd.

I want 1 package of flooring and 3 more drawer knobs so my remodel will be finished.

  And Santa is working on getting these gifts to you. Apparently, they are a very popular item this year. Cheers for a white Christmas Greg!

  Santa let me down, well actually the Christmas shipping rush delayed my floor and knobs. They both should have been here today but the knobs didn't show and the flooring delivery was cancelled because of the blizzard. But I did get 5 new cookbooks, some new wooden spoons and an awesome camera bag.

  Amy, I got one three years ago, or was it two and we hardly have used it. I suppose we really should put it to work. They make wonderful waffles.

  I got a pasta roller last year. I love it. It took some getting use to to make the pasta the right thickness but after that it works great. You can even dry it and it does great.

OK, I kind of hate to say this, but I made my first batch of pasta tonight...

Oh. My. Gawd. (or as my wife said, "I thought only truffles could make me feel this way).

I braised a lamb shank, then stuffed some ravioli with the meat & veggies and used the braising liquid to make a sauce.

WOW. I may never buy pasta again.

  Sounds as if you went to heaven and back. Lovely how food can do that to someone who truly knows how to appreciate goodness.

Santa brought me new thick kitchen towels. Don't'cha know I always am washing my hands, too. He brought me a brownie pan (I've long wanted) whereby, there is an edge for everyone. The brownies come right out and there is no sticking. He also brought me U.S. postage stamps with photos of my new Grand Niece. She is so cute! A wonderful meal with the family and extended family and our kitty, Tiffany, back home after two years away! I am blessed! Truly blessed.

I find I need a new cookie jar. I gave mine in a donation when we moved from the house to the condo and downsized. I baked lots of cookies tonight!
