The Essential Kitchen


This basket is essentially the stuff you'd love to have but don't get for yourself. A set of essential cookbooks, beautiful red bowls, cutting board, and a set of spreaders might not make you a better cook - but they certainly are fun! Even clean up will be fun with your own personal flower power scrubber!
