Christmas Wish List
Dec. 17th, 2008 05:36 pmI realise I'm a tad late putting this up, but better late than never. Also, it's incomplete; I'll be adding to it as I think of stuff. I always remember things when I'm miles away from any chance to write it down.
For the benefit of friends and relatives who wonder what to get me, here's some ideas:
- Bread kneading board or mat--marble, wood, silicone rubber. Anything that's less messy than using a pastry cloth and big enough to handle the job.
- A good bowl scraper (spatula to some of you) with a flexible blade.
- exotic herbal teas.
- interesting cheeses.
- a really strong sourdough bread
- comfortable, slip-on, fleece-lined slippers.
- new cotton socks
- fresh ground gourmet coffees
- The entire "Trinity Blood" anime series on DVD. Funimation dub is surprisingly good.
- "Transformers: Animated" (the new TV series) on DVD.
- The new DVD issue of Seasons 1 & 2 of Dragonball Z (i.e., with subtitles available). I still need to replace all those video tapes/lack of episodes.
- "Forever Knight" TV series on DVD, starting with Season 1.
- A DVR (Tivo-type device). DVR with DVD-burner would be really cool.
... more to come.
