Mini Minimalism

via

One of Georgia's favorite Christmas gifts is a wooden cake. It has five candles and you can even cut it with a child friendly wooden knife. We've been throwing birthday parties every day. And although I try not to be preoccupied with aging, I thank god they are imaginary celebrations or I'd be so old.

The birthday cake does, however, have me obsessing over wooden culinary toys. I'm ready to get out a block of wood and some sandpaper. And I'd also love to order this breakfast set from Japan (had to be Japan). I imagine the child that plays with this will grow up learning that great food is also about presentation. Can you imagine the artfully stacked piles of peas?

Now If I could just get a hold of a jigsaw.
