First home starter kit: kitchen gifts

My baby sister is moving into her first home.  Wish I could be there.

A selection of good things all first kitchens should have - specially for Sim.

1 - bunch of Iceland poppies by Hello Naomi, 2 - Jamie's 30 minute meals, 3 - rainbow kitchen spoons by Wind and Willow Home, rainbow mixing bowls by Joseph and Joseph from Peters of Kensington, 
5 - Le Creuset pot in volcanic, 6 - tea towel by todryfor

For my 18th birthday my granny gave me the start of a classic white dinnerware set.  She added to the set at every Christmas or birthday with the proviso that when I moved out, it was to be used every day.  She didn't believe in keeping things for special occasions and lived her life with all her best things in use every day.  Its a philosophy I love and try to emulate, even when life includes an active toddler.  She also gave me a Le Creuset casserole pot just like the one pictured, it still looks brand new and we use it often.  I can't imagine I will ever need to by another.

If I were closer I would give my sister:

- a bunch of Iceland poppies (one of our granny's favourite flowers - and mine), 

- Jamie's best book yet, especially good for when you are feeling lazy,

- rainbow utensils to put a smile on your face

- the essential and timeless casserole pot, &

- silly tea towels to make cleaning up more fun..........and a big sister hug ofcourse.
