One of the problems with cohabiting with your significant other before tying the knot is that you don't often get the really cool kitchen gadget type things as gifts, well, I guess I should clarify that this is the case when you also take a laissez faire approach to creating a registry for your guests.
So what I'm getting at is that when the Husband and I tied the knot 9 years ago we received a lot of towels and very little of anything else. Of course it wasn't all towels, we got a steamer, and luggage and the coolest hand thrown cookie jar from my best friend among a handful of other things that we've put to good use in our home. What we didn't get was a lot of fun kitchen gadgets. We had a lot of things already of course, hand me downs from both sides of the family which I kind of prefer anyway liking the history. So the give away being held at Mrs B's today in conjunction with October Farm is one that I would love love love to win.
Included in this super giveaway are some items that I've been longing to have in the kitchen but just haven't taken the time to get them there; like a cake server and a juicer. Also there are some things that I never even knew I wanted like a bun warmer, how absolutely decadent? and how absolutely would that come in handy since I've started making my own bread and buns?

If you don't win the giveaway, you should try the thrift stores. We ended up having to get married on a weeks notice (damn Army) and so we didn't really get any wedding pretties either. I've outfitted my kitchen mostly from thrift store and garage sale finds.
Isn't Jaz awesome? She always puts together the best giveaways. :)
