My favourite ever cake is the cauliflower bun from the UK bakery Bettys. I have been addicted to them for many years, sponge inside, a layer of buttercream and encased in a marzipan. This year they produced limited edition apples and pears, but they really were not as tasty as my old friend the cauliflower bun! I just thought i'd share that with you as i think they are a work of art!

Clean lines, unfussy and practical - that's the wooden Possibilitree. Made in Minnesota from reclaimed wood (when available), the Possibilitree comes in table top versions and suspended version. I think that it is wonderful...just a bit too late for Christmas this year, but bookmarked for next Christmas!

At the top of my dogs wish list this Christmas is this stylish chocolate brown and cream dog bed hand screen printed and hand made in London by One Blue Dog at Bouf. They also hope that the lovely dog modelling the bed is included too!

Ooooh these are lovely cushions by designer Lindy Emser of Ply Textiles. Lindy accidently shrunk her favourite sweater in the wash (we have all been there!) and the idea was born from here. Made from recycled wool jumpers. I adore them!

Looking for a memorable Christmas gift for my Mum & Sister I created photobooks of my gorgeous baby nephew - Amare. Lovely cover then... printed on every page inside - a strangers wedding. If you think I was shocked, imagine the faces of the newly weds - inside their book was a ready made baby album!
What I received...
What it should look like...

Emma Beddington and Madevi Dailly are the brilliant duo behind Belgian Waffle and Cruel Tea. Their mission is to bring a little malice to tea time with a range of evil edibles, tourette's tea cosies and aprons. Guaranteed to spice up your tea time, bringing endless fun at the expense of short-sighted relatives or easily shocked colleagues. Genius!

This cable installation by Maisie Maud Broadhead is beautiful. Wouldn't it be great is cable engineers could take a leaf out of Masies book instead of leaving acres of poorly fitted cable!
