Kitchen Dreams: Another Bread Book

I wasn't going to wait until Friday to tell you about this, but I can't. I just can't. The next cookbook on my never ending list to buy is Josey Baker Bread.

I read this article on Bon Apetit and now I want the book so bad I can't wait for it to come out.

Because basically I love bread. And more than bread, I love toast. and that cover makes me drool. And Tuesday night I tried to make english muffin bread (because I love english muffins and thought it would be fantastic), but it was awful. I hated it. It was dense, not fluffy. And way too overly sweet. Color me incredibly disappointed.

And then I went to bed and dreamed of owning this book.

Kitchen Dreams: Porcelain Paper Plates

What I’m crushing on this week: I love these porcelain paper plates. I honestly love paper plates. They’re clean and simple, and there’s no mess involved. This would be such a fun way to serve pizza for a low key girls night or game night – we’re big into game night.

Sigh.. I dream of porcelain paper plates.

Kitchen Dreams: Coffee Bean Ice Cube Tray

This is silly. I want this coffee bean shaped ice cube tray. But, I saw it on Emily's Cupcakes and Cashmere Five Things post and immediately thought those are silly. And after careful consideration I thought, I really want them.

Normally I try not to purchase things without multiple purposes. So, this may stay on my wishlist for a while. It just seems like the perfect addition to sweet, cold iced coffee. Which I'm inexplicable craving because I saw the sun last week.

They're cute and quirky and totally unreasonable. Otherwise known as four words I would use to describe myself.

Kitchen Dreams: Mini Cast Iron Skillets

You know what I want? What I really, really want (but don't have room or reason for)? A mini cast iron skillet. More specifically, I want like 8 or 12 or 24. Because individual cookies, brownies, cobblers and pies are adorrrrrrrrrable in these mini cast iron skillets. I really like this one from West Elm.

Kitchen Dreams: Terra Cotta Board

I'm too broke and space-less (I live at home) to have any reason to buy this terra cota board right now. Or really at any point, because even on sale it seems ridiculously over priced. That said, i want it.

I can picture serving so many cheeses and breads on this. It seems perfect for a fancy or casual cocktail hour. Which I'm of course throwing in my imaginary apartment. In the summer. On my imaginary balcony that overlooks a lake. With candles and my imaginary planters of herbs and flowers.

It's a great world inside my head. And this terra cota board makes it so much better. Perhaps another day.
