Here are some of my favourite items I would not want to be without in the kitchen. My rule is that all items in the kitchen should be either beautiful or practical – or ideally both!

Love Life Apron

This delightful apron will bring cheer and delight to any cook. It has a pocket at the front, too. Week day quick meals and long baking days will be made more beautiful.

Great Value Knives

This brilliant egg timer is a superb stocking filler present for anyone who likes boiled eggs! This gadget senses the temperature and can tell you when your egg is soft, medium or hard boiled! Never have a too runny egg or over hard one ever again!

Cat Kitchen Timer

Under £10!

A kitchen timer is great to stop you forgetting about the cake you put in the oven or how long your pasta has been on the stove. This one is cute as well as practical and is small enough to carry with you, if you are off to do another task in the meantime.

So easy to use too without any hassle.

There are never enough places for hot dishes and pans especially when you are cooking a large meal for many people. This large trivet is big enough for oven dishes and large pans in the kitchen and beautiful enough for serving dishes on the table.

It is a good size at 25cm. Sturdy and heavy too.
