Christmas Wish List
Every year I look forward to the holiday season. I love all the hustle and bustle that comes with the season. All throughout the year I keep a Christmas wish list through Gift Hero. If I see something I would like or for someone that I normally buy for – I add it to my list. By keeping a list all year my Christmas shopping is much easier than starting from scratch.Â
Below you will find my Christmas Wish List with some things I am asking Santa for, some things that I am buying for others and other things that I dream of owning (I’m talking about Cristel cookware). I hope this list helps you as you do your holiday shopping.Â
Stocking Stuffers

Â
2. Kitchen Grips Deluxe 2-Piece Pan Handle Holder Set $7.95
Lately I have been starting more of my chicken and beef on the stovetop and then moving it to the oven. I am always worried about burning my hand on the handle and would really like to have these to prevent that from happening. They come in five colors to match any kitchen decor.Â
Â
3. J.A. Henckels International 11517-100 Take-Apart Kitchen Shears $19.92

Â
4. Pot Minder Chef $4.50
We have all had that dramatic moment where our pasta pot boils over. I currently have a glass stovetop and it is so much harder to get the salted water off than a gas stove top. The pot minder chef is supposed to help minimize the bubbles and I look forward to trying this right after Christmas.Â
Â
5. TOPIST Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner $9.88
Most of us have heard of the Angry Mama Microwave cleaner. I am not sure why I haven’t bought one yet but anything that helps clean a microwave is great to have.Â

Â

Â
2. Dansk Kobenstyle Saucepan with Trivet Lid $114.95
A 2 qt Danish saucepan that is so pretty to look at. It is one of those pans you can leave out on the stove as decoration when you aren’t using it.Â
