December is here! You are now allowed to decorate for the holidays and turn on the carols. Even if you did some Black Friday shopping last week, today is Cyber Monday and it is time to start thinking about shopping for your loved ones, family, friends, and/or co-workers. I have collected some special and unique gift ideas for all the people on your shopping list.

The rolling pin is so cute! I’m really lucky – my family always gives me kitchen gadgets for presents. Awesome! Visiting from the Blogging Collective. =)
Thanks Natasha!
Awesome gift ideas! Love the heart-shaped pot! What restaurant have you had the best dishes? Remember to add it to your Besty List! http://www.thebesty.com/everydaycook
Thanks Julia! I’m about to eat at some great Seattle institutions and will add my favorites soon!
Oh super cute stuff!
Thanks Laura!
Great list Pam! I love that rolling pin – certainly not something you want to hide away in a drawer. And thanks for including OB’s bread basket!
Thank you Laney!
What a wonderful collection! Merry Christmas to you!
Thanks Adri you too!
Man, I sure could have used #9 at our Thanksgiving breakfast to keep our biscuits warm. We cook daily, but it is always when we host people I think, “Man, I really could use a ____!” haha. But then never think about it again!
I know it’s so true!
What a fab guide! I might want everything. I’ve had my eye on that rolling pin for quite a while- who doesn’t love Anthropologie? And, also loving Ortensia Blu’s covered bread basket 😉
I love the square baker that matches the rolling pin too! And I think I need one of those bread baskets myself this year!
