I love these funky measuring cups! If you’re anything like me, a little cuteness here and there never goes astray…

M-Cups are a set of 6 dry-measure cups nests neatly just like traditional Russian matryoshkas. Each doll will measure exactly 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4 and 1 full cup. Easy to store, easy to use – it’s a no brainer for anyone looking for some new kitchen gear.

M-Cups are AU$17.95 at Tesora

Looking through the blik website, and I fell in love with the blik prose product. If you have a favorite poem, quote or phrase – you can now stick it on your wall!

blik, you’ve done it again! (don’t get me started on the blik loves threadless competition – genius!)

Love it! Before I continue spawning Paris Hilton like 2 word catch phrases – I should talk about what IKEA has to offer …

Dog food bowl (or a cat food bowl I guess) – Mischa is in dire need for a new bowl, so this is perfect as it’s stainless steel and non-slip. The UDDEN Wall shelf is something that I definately need to check out. We’ve been searching for affordable, decent wall shelves for our kitchen – for $69, I think we may have found them! And lastly, the FUSION table and 4 chairs. The fact that ALL the chairs can be tucked neatly under the table is a godsend for people like me, who have a tiny apartment. It’s a miracle!

I think I know where I’m going this weekend …

I’d been wanting to buy some new, bigger dinner bowls for our big pasta and pizza nights (because the pasta and pizza wouldn’t fit on the same plate or bowl) and I remembered how great Victoria’s Basement in the QVB was when I used to go there with my mum.

I wasn’t wrong! These beautiful big irregularly-shaped bowls by BENZER where $24.95 reduced down to $5 each. Can’t go wrong with that, so I bought an orange one and a blue one.

Ok, so they’re not identical but they share the same design principle – plate area with a small sauce bowl attached.

Why post them both? One is $29.95, the other … $2.95! Bargain.
