My 2019 Kitchen Gift Guide Favorites

KitchenAid White Hobnail Mixer — My favorite stand mixer. The white hobnail finish is elegant and timeless, and it performs beautifully for baking, whipping and mixing.

Wooden Heart Spatula — A sweet, simple spatula that makes a nice little gift or stocking stuffer.

Weekly Meal Planner Pad — I love these pads because each sheet includes space for a weekly plan plus a grocery list, which keeps weeknight cooking organized.

Fish Spatula — I use a fish spatula for almost everything. It’s thin, flexible and indispensable for flipping delicate proteins and more.

Smeg Juicer — I’ve been using this juicer for nearly two years and it’s arguably my favorite small appliance. It shines during citrus season and makes exceptional orange juice.

Adorable Kitchen Canister — A pretty canister is an easy gift. I find uses for them all over the house, but the nicest ones deserve a spot on the counter.

Floral Carved Lazy Susan — I bought this recently and love it. It looks beautiful in the center of the table and is incredibly useful for serving cheese, jams, nuts and other small dishes.

½ Gallon Stasher Bags — Great for breading, marinating, seasoning and storing leftovers. They’re reusable and the half-gallon size is very versatile.

Parchment Check Colander — I use a strainer constantly for washing berries, rinsing beans and draining pasta. A colander that’s attractive enough to display is a small luxury.

Favorite Dish Towels — The right dish towel makes kitchen work more pleasant. These are the ones I reach for every day.

Quick Go-To Citrus Juicer — For when I need juice fast for a dressing or sauce. Simple, reliable and easy to use.

Finex Cast Iron Skillet — This skillet is the closest I’ve found to my mom’s century-old cast iron. It’s heavy, well-made and cooks evenly.

Tealight Brie Baker — A clever way to enjoy warm brie without firing up the oven. Cute and useful for entertaining.

Bodum Double-Walled Pavina Glasses — These keep drinks insulated and look modern on the counter. I use them for coffee and they make a lovely gift.

Shield Cheese Board Markers — Adorable markers that add a personal touch to a cheese board and help guests identify their favorites.

Kale Razor — Back by popular demand. If you make lots of kale salads, this tool makes quick work of finely shredding leaves.

Convertible Cheese Board — Compact for storage but expands to provide generous serving space. Great for parties and easy to store.

Indoor Herb Keeper — Keeps fresh herbs accessible during cooler months and extends the life of store-bought herbs for better weeknight cooking.

Food52 x GreenPan Nonstick Oval Roasting Pan — I’ve been raving about this pan since I bought it. It’s nonstick, roomy and has quickly become a favorite for roasting.

MacKenzie-Childs Royal Check Stock Pot — A decorative and functional piece that looks especially charming in colder months when soup and stews are on the menu.

Beehive Salt Cellar — Cute and practical, a small accent that brightens the countertop and keeps salt within reach while cooking.

Personalized Recipe Board — A meaningful gift: a personalized recipe board is sentimental and functional, perfect for someone who treasures family recipes.

Chocolate Shaver — A fun tool to shave chocolate over cakes, cupcakes, hot chocolate and desserts. A small but delightful gadget for bakers.

Weber Genesis E315 Grill — I’ve used this grill extensively and it’s excellent for the price. Reliable, well-built and makes grilling enjoyable.

Pro Vegetable Chopper — Handy for large prep jobs. It won’t replace your knives for everyday cooking, but it’s perfect for those times you need to dice a lot quickly.
