A new obsession...

If you remember...I few weeks back I was a winner...a WINNER...for the first time ever!
I entered PK's $80 giveaway to csnstores.com...and I won!

This is what I picked...

What a fun box to come home to after being gone for a few weeks...Mr. T left it all sealed up so I could open it myself...looks so great on my bed!

I also got the 4 pasta bowls (in the middle of this fabulous collection).
(they came before I left town and I have plans to use them more then once this week)

I'm eyeing the chip and dip platter...it may be on my birthday list this year!

Getting those pasta bowls made me want more serving dishes, etc...

so while "vacationing" at my mom's, I found this set of 12 water goblets on sale at Crate and Barrel for $21.95...they are currently on their way...

My sister and I hit the Crate and Barrel store in Bellevue (Washington...since there isn't one here in Utah) and I fell in love with a few other things that I NEED!

This adorably cute soup tureen...


with matching footed soup bowls...

of course, I would need a ladle too!


I about died when I saw this ramekin...why get plain white when you can have a pindot one...I NEED a set of these...


and if you don't know about my obsession with green...well, do these green napkins tell you anything about all things "going green" in my kitchen...

(I decided that I didn't need to spend $17 on 4 cloth napkins...I will be hitting my favorite fabric store sometime this month to see if I can find something similar to make my own...I NEED them for spring).

I am having WAY too much fun obsessing over kitchen items...it's a good thing I have decided I can't buy anything new till we makeover the kitchen and I know how much space I will really have for fun things like this. Yes, I know, I did buy the water goblets...but they come in their own storage box so I can safely put them in the pantry:)

Alright...I better get off the online shopping and get to the basement to begin the overhaul. Now that I am back from Seattle, it's time to finally begin 2010 and get the "cleaning out" underway...especially since most of you already have a 2 week head start:)

See you when I resurface!

I have a soup tureen that looks like that with the ladle and I love it. It looks so cute with soup inside.

I simply must know what those beautiful dishes are! Where did you find them? What company? How much? I adore them! I've been looking for new dishes FOREVER!
