No comparison to the wimpy American versions. My friends even know to bring these back for me now. In France, I buy Lotus brand. (via The Cold War)

Fortuny Lamp – Cesendello

First to recommend

Description

These lamps are beyond gorgeous. If I win the lottery, I’m buying dozens. The design looks Arabian, maybe Asian…no one ever guesses they’re from Italy. (via Distant Origin)

Krups Panini Press

2 people recommended this item

Description

A few years ago, I won a Williams Sonoma gift certificate. It was a pretty generous amount, so after I picked out a few things I really needed, I started choosing what I thought were more whimsical items. That’s how the Krups Panini Press wound up in my home. I suspected it would be yet another small appliance I’d buy, use once, then put away, but I was wrong. I love and use it so much that I keep it on the counter permanently.

The Krups panini maker makes picture perfect paninis. It has a high quality non-stick finish, takes about 5 minutes to heat up, and gets hot enough to cook a golden brown, melty, delicious panini in 3 minutes. It’s so much better than a skillet because it cooks both sides at once and of course, makes the nice ridges which are a key in a good panini.

The Krups panini maker has made me more creative with flavors. My favorite panini of late involves cilantro pesto, pepper jack cheese, baby spinach and Southwestern seasoned chicken on sourdough. It takes literally 8 minutes to assemble and cook.

If you can’t cook, at least pour a nice glass of wine. (see above) These glasses are restaurant-quality at a great price.

Tumi T3 22in. Expandable Wheeled Packing Case

First to recommend

Description

This is the most stylish suitcase I’ve ever seen. It gets stares in the airport and flight attendants always compliment me on it. The 22” is the largest size you can (officially) carry on. (via Tumi)
