Message to Santa

After working on this blog for almost two months, I have started to keep a running list in my head of all the kitchen gadgets I would like to have. I thought maybe, since Mrs. Santa is such a wonderful cook and baker, she likely reads lots of food blogs (including mine). I figure this is the most efficient way to get my Christmas list to my... er, I mean her jolly husband.

The Flake's Christmas Wish List
World Peace (doesn't hurt to suck up, right?)
A new lens for my camera (Canon G10)
A ceramic spoon holder to sit on the stovetop
A hot air corn popper
A Cuisinart ice cream maker (2-quart please)
Lots and lots of mismatched dessert plates (antiques, Deseret Industries bargains, single settings -- all to be used in my food porn photography collection)
Three 8x4 (not 9x5) bread loaf pans
A white cake plate (raised)
A microplane zester (sigh, drool)
A spice rack complete with empty bottles (I know just the one and have it marked at Amazon.com)
Assorted serving platters
Fat French Chef decor accessories (the little portly guys with chef hats)
My very own Flirty Apron (www.flirtyaprons.com) Well, okay, I want more than one. I want FOUR! Two for me (laundry rotation, don't ya know) and two matching little girl sizes to keep on hand for Mae and any other future granddaughters to use when we bake together. Well, hmmm... actually... I also want one for Katie, Juliann, and Rachael to have on hand at our house when they come over and help in the kitchen. You can see where this is going, right Santa? Every new girl that arrives into the family (through birth or marriage) is going to need their own Flirty Apron. Oh heck, Santa, just buy me stock in the company.
