They will be a popular item for those with kids, had a look but resisted for the time being.

Love the storage unit RosieB, I like being able to see what you have in the pantry in a glance and not have everything hidden behind something else as in my pantry.  Mind you, I'd probably need 3 of them for all my supplies :-))


Didn't Frank make something similar for Uni?

Why did I visit here... LOL.

21' would be great, 8' and rain of course today!

Actually I bought some moulds for the chocolate soufflé pudding today. Been resisting due to price but then saw some that were better value. All washed up and ready to use now. So useful to have this dessert in the freezer. Can't find a link to show you.
They are domed and aluminium. Can't go in DW, but won't be used all the time.

I also got this http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/sol/shop/home_and_garden/cookware/baking/cake_tins/120186292_tu_silicone_heart.html?hnav=4294960496

What a difference a job makes!!

As usual I really shouldn't look at this thread.
What I would do for one of those storage units. Not that I have the room. My pantry is quite large but when you have so many types of flour etc. at least I have much more room in this house than our previous one.  Our theatre is a bit like Hally's DH has it all mucked up at the moment.

I have several sets of the usual icecream blocks with the sticks,  But I always pull just the stick out, or DGS chews the plastic stick.  
I figured these may be a bit better for him as he has problems with fine motor skills and usually wears more icecream than he eats.  Tho I am expecting a few to shoot straight out of the top until he masters using them.

I keep finding kitchen storage ideas but I love this one.
I am still planning my Kitchen extension into what was the laundry.  I hate laundries.  Every one uses them as a place to put things they can't be bothered putting away.  
My laundry will be a front loader washing machine under my kitchen bench.  This looks like it would be perfect as I want to build in the complete wall of the laundry as cupboard space.  Just have to convince DH.  I have several welsh dressers and if this was made in timber it would match beautifully.  Drool Drool.

I couldn't resist buying some of these silicone push pop tubes for icecreams.  I ordered them direct from China

Now just waiting for them to arrive..

I also could not resist! Thank you for sharing the link. Calippo's are great for my DD, home made are even better :)

Jamberie I have just had a good look at your avatar.  Is it the very hungry caterpillar? It is cute.
