Continuing my love of purchasing all things “housey”…La Demo of course, has such a marvelous selection of house-type stuff. I am always finding something there that I didn’t realize that I need, but that I DO need…like a new strainer or kettle or cute little cow mugs or a spoon with holes in it or…well, need I say more?

I love “peltre” stuff… so expensive in Canada. I should get some, although I am more in baby stuff right now (which will not preclude to take some botran anejo back to the white north).
But of course you need a spoon with holes in it!!! How else will you take the chicken out of the soup to later bake it? Or strain the buñuelos you´re frying? How about one of those lime squeezers? How else can you make your limeade or your ceviche?
Ahhh, it’s true….I’m a sucker for all the pretty, shiny little things that you can use for your house… Cristina…LIME SQUEEZERS!! My favorite house thing!! I still call them “squeezadoras” because I didn’t know the proper name for them, when I came to Xela…and truth be told we have about 6 hand held strainers (all different sizes) in our business (we NEED them all, REALLY!) 🙂
