Planning for Christmas...already!

This is completely out of character for me.

But since I live in the bush I'm already starting to think about Christmas.

I'm a Christmas Eve shopper.

I've also been a Boxing Day shopper as well.

And today I thought...I'm gonna help my peeps out with their Christmas shopping.

(It's me Hot Husband holla!!!!!)

Sorry...Hot Husband just took the computer when I turned my back.

He gets a little outta hand.

I'll try to control him better next time.

Moving on...

Check these fun goodies out!


They are garden tools...

but actually they're NOT!

They're salad serving utensils.

Here's what the box says.

"These lovely bamboo serving utensils are styled just like gardener's hand tools; they're perfect for presenting the bounty of your backyard garden (salad bar is OK too - even if you don't have a green thumb you can have a green diet). Garden Salad is crafted from natural-finished bamboo that's low-maintenance, gorgeous, sustainable and earth-friendly. Can you dig it?"

Aren't they fun??

I think they'd be a fabulous gift. You know...to someone you love...like your Mom, or yourself...

They come from a fabulous little place called Fred and Friends.

Oh they have fun FUN stuff. And OH it's addictive is such a good way!

And not just kitchen stuff. Home stuff, office stuff, and stuff and stuff and more stuff!

But these came from another FABULOUS-HOPE YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF HOURS website called Perpetual Kid!

If you look on the Fred and Friends site they do have places where they sell their product as well.

You've gotta take a looksie!

But you'll need some time.

I have this friend, we'll call her Lara Croft...who is big into fun kitchen stuff and now I'm a bit addicted myself.

You know...cause I was looking for another addiction to add to my addiction collection.

So I didn't ramble on about this for nothing.

I'm not just showing you to give you an idea.

I'm not all kinds of rude like that.

I'm giving this puppy away.

Count me in. For the past few years we've started doing homemade gifts only with the girls in my family. We all get together the week of Christmas and bring our gift--we make one for everyone--and do a brunch out where we open our presents. They are SO COOL. I can't believe the stuff my sisters come up with, easy and hard but all cool. Oh, and I want to know if I can hire you to remake a header for my blog. Because I can't get the idea out of my head.

Damon & Brianne said...

Send it my way!!

The Bing's said...

Naomi said...

Well Kristi this is the first comment ever I have left on any blog. And as much as I love those tongs and they would look great in my salads instead of my mothers old ones, I really want to know if you have ever seen a Blind Duster tool on someones sight while you shop around? My Mother inlaw got one from a friend as a hostess gift and I've been looking for them ever since! By the way - love your blog, I've been a slient reader for awhile!

Jenny May said...

OK these are SOOO cute.. Even if I don't win I am so going to get a couple sets for my mom and in my in-laws who love to garden...
But then again if I win.. I want them for myself...

Amy J in SC said...

I've started Christmas shopping too and feel so with it I can hardly stand myself.

Thanks for sharing - it's already bookmarked. :-]

Chantelle Abarca said...

Tami said...

Can I be entered in the drawing, or do I live too far away? You can tell me the truth. I can take it. :)

Lila said...

I don't currently have anything to toss a salad with!

Mom said...

I so totally need salad utensils that I am leaving a second message to tell you that "I so totally need salad utensils"! Does it matter how many times I leave a comment saying it????????????

Anonymous said...

I am going to go with your logic of, "you won't win if you don't put your name in."

Sign me up!

Your neighbor, Tara

Kate Sansom said...

My salad tongs are old and plastic. Not sustainable like those guys! Awesome blog Kristi Lee!

Anonymous said...

Those are kickin! Natasha needs new salad tongs because Mr.Hurricane Hayden used the good ones mommy got for a wedding gift to dig dirt and sadly they've been lost...I figure in 10 years we'll have a tree sprouting salad tongs in our back yard.

Well, I found the comment section again, although I am not sure what I did to lose it in the first place. So do I get another chance at winning, because I joined Twitter? Only now I don't know what to do with it. Might have to call for lessons.
