So maybe Fall has already shiften over to Winter. But these classy KitchenAid Mixing Bowls in Fall colors will leave some lingering memories of autumn leaves and turkey days.

This three bowl set features …

This is a pretty standard looking baster made by KitchenAid but I like it because it’s more sturdy yet flexible than some other models. Featuring a silicone bulb that’s resistant to heat, …

Riedel makes a large variety of these stemless wine glasses or tumblers. This is again in their “O” line of Austrian glass. The ones shown are meant for tannic red wines like Cabernet or Merlot, …

I’ve often wondered about the viability of vegetable chopping gadgets like this one. I sort of wonder if by labeling it an “onion” chopper instead of a “vegetable” chopper they’re dooming it to “unitasker” status. However, I read a lot of people use it for other things like celery, bell peppers and even tomatoes (inserted cut side up).

I dunno though. I’ve got decent knife skills so if you add the time in that it takes to wash it and the storage space needed to keep it out of they way until needed, I think I would pass for myself. I’ve also heard that it takes a good amount of arm strength to force the vegetables down through the blade. If you can use that much force, then you can probably use a knife to chop reliably, right?

Bring a little of the old and a little of the new into your holiday season with this “Hourglass” timer by Polder. Polder, of course, is famous for making a ton of different great …

This is a super elegant and trendy wine decanter made by the world famous Riedel glassmaking company of Austria that’s been around for 11 generations. This is the handblown “O” Decanter (they also have “O” wine tumblers) made of lead crystal and with a 750 ml capacity. One handed pouring is probably easier with this decanter than others because of the unusually deep thumb-well that allows for easy grasping.

The mouth of this decanter is cut at a sharp angle spout for accurate pouring. It stands about 9 inches tall and is actually more sturdy than you might believe.

These tree cake pans might be a good gift choice for those bakers on your list. Made of pure silicone, they supposedly can withstand 675 degrees F for sustained periods without any breakdown problems. Because …

Ok, so Panini Presses are all the latest rage it seems. The basic idea behind these sandwich grills are a lower and upper non-stick cooking surface connected by a hinge (similar to a George Foreman grill). You just put sandwiches inside and close the press on it. The heat makes nice grill markings on the sandwiches and also cook the contents to some extent.

Cuisinart makes a few pretty nice presses including this “Griddler” Panini Press which sports 11 x 7 inch grill plates. One of the best things about it is that it features a “floating hinge” which allows you to adjust the grill hinges to accomodate larger than normal type sandwiches like hoagies. Others that don’t have the hinge often struggle to contain a taller type of sandwich.

I’m interesting in getting one of these because people have said that they can be used for other things besides normal panini sandwiches including grilled cheese sandwiches, veggies and pork chops.
