My Lovely New Pretty....

Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my last post and for the birthday wishes.

You may remember my post here where I had a very kind offer to choose a gift from  CSN Stores to have a little play with it, and see what I thought. Well of course the simple task of what item to choose, got me all giddy and I took a little while deciding. As we are doing up the kitchen diner I thought something pretty for that would be a good choice. Also as I am hoping to deck the kitchen out in lots of pretty candy and cream coloured accessories, I thought this would be perfect. We were given some Le Creuset cookware for a wedding present 10 years ago and it has been wonderful, and has years and years left in it, so I knew I was choosing something not only practical, but in a pretty Almond colour too.

I think the cast iron is an extremely high quality material and very durable, so hopefully I have something that should last and last and last. The size of the Le Creuset Cast Iron Round Casserole dish is 16cms, so a real cutie and a perfect little size. I was very excited when I first opened the lovely orange box.

The quality of Le Creuset really jumps out at you. Isn't she a sweetie.

She is a dream to cook with, we have made many dishes, including, vegetable ratatouille, carrot soup, aubergine bake and even homemade rice pudding. and after all that cooking,  and washing up, do you think i put her away in a drawer. Gosh no, she stays out on display, looking lovely :0)

Thank you to CSN Stores for a super item, excellent customer care service and quick dispatch of an excellent item that hopefully shall be in my possession for years to come. Please feel free to check out what other super cookware and many other items CSN has to offer.

Right, off to cook something in my lovely new casserole dish for lunch.

I am A Girl Who Loves To Shop....

Hello, hope you are having a lovely weekend. We have had some alright a little sunshine here and have had a lovely family play. I have also bought one or two pretties, *sigh* I really am a shopaholic ;0)  I have also a little extra shopping to do as the very kind people over at CSN stores, which is an amazing online store where you can find everything from cookware to ceiling lights to furniture, have kindly given me the wonderful opportunity to go on a little shopping spree.

Not long ago the excellent CSN Stores offered a super and very generous giveaway here on my blog and I know the lucky winner was very happy with the pretties she chose. Well I recieved a lovely email offering me the chance to review one of their products on my blog and I am giddy with excitement. CSN have so many lovely pretties for me to choose from, here are one or two of my favourites thus far.

Hmmm reckon there may be a dash of pink in there ;0) Look forward to sharing with you what I chose :0)
