I have still been clicking away online getting a few last minute things and as tradition goes, I must post the gifts I am after this year—hopefully you will find one or two you could get for yourself family or friends!

The basketball slow cooker cracks me up ;D Peppermint cheesecake ice cream sounds heavenly. I love all your gifts, they are all great kitchen finds!
What a fun post! At first I thought that little basketball was a little grill...I should go try to find one of those for my brother...Not too sure if he'd mess with a slow cooker though. haha! Oh boys!
Love all the gift suggestions. I actually have one of those frying pans in pink. :-) My roommates got it for me as a gift in college and I love it.
Great gift ideas! I'll take one of each...plus an ice cream maker so I can make that scrumptious sounding flavour you've got going on at the start of this post!!!
