In My Kitchen - May

This month's edition is bought to you by the letter "M"...
Hang on, wait - that sounds a bit like Sesame Street doesn't it......?!?!?

I  thought I'd post some of my favourite "M" things for May's In My Kitchen.

MUGS & MEASURING CUPS

I must be honest and admit that I do have a bit of a fettish for kitchen bits and pieces and both mugs and measuring cups fall into that category!
I love having a big range of mugs to drink from. 

Here are some of my favourites currently in my mug cupboard: These are my standard tea & coffee mugs. I use them when I'm just having a drink by myself.  These cow mugs were picked from the shop by my daughter who is obsessed with cows. We have these when we're having a cup of tea together and are sometimes used when I have a friend over.

Here's 2 mugs that my daughter and I painted for each other :-) We take these to a coffee shop when we go out for a special treat together. I'm sure the people making our drink have a bit of a chuckle! We also use these for having hot chocolate.

Anything pink and French falls into my 'like' category! These are just too cute - and the perfect size for a cup of tea I must add!

This set (of 3!) is my most favourite set! These are for special occasions - so know that if you visit and you get served your hot drink in these cups then know that you are very important to me and that I value our friendship!!! ;-)

If I ever see this range available again I will buy a 4th just to complete the set!

Now onto measuring cups!

There are so many different types of ones you can get & I find them all so lovely and fascinating.

Here's what's currently in my cooking drawer:

This purple set formed part of my Christmas gift from my husband which was many purple kitchen items! I sure didn't need any extra measuring cups but they sure get used!!!!

I'm instantly attracted to a bright range of colours so I couldn't resist purchasing these ones! 

This set is really handy for baking with because it has teaspoon and tablespoon measurements on the ends!

This set is great for travelling - they all hold together with a mini ring clip. They are also great for measuring when you need to pour - eg. when a recipe calls for each waffle to use 1/2 cup!

This set comes from Tupperware!

Its so practical because it also has 3/4 cup and 2/3 measurements which not many sets contain.

This set is just way too cute! I just LOVE them!

Question of the day:

Do you have a special mug that you like to use for warm drinks?

Next month I hope to have a new blender to show you since our one broke on Friday!
