Wow, it’s been a while. I have been busy moving…again (I know! Three times in 1 and 1/2yrs) – but this time it’s to Australia! We are now living in the Gold Coast near Surfers Paradise for quite a lifestyle change.  Still house hunting, but have found a few goodies that would make great house warming gifts.

I discovered the cute M-Cups Measuring Cups in a few stores here.  Useful and can be left on display if you don’t have loads of kitchen storage. This set of 6 dry-measure cups nests neatly just like traditional Russian matryoshkas. They accurately measure 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4 and 1 full cup, and they’re built from heavy-duty, food-safe, long-life engineering plastics.  You can get them in kitchen stores here in Australia, or online for much cheaper here and here starting at AU$14.95 – cheapest I have found.

Or, if dolls aren’t your thing, then what about the flower measuring cups – once again they nest, and includes one of each: 1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup, and 1 cup. Are dishwasher-safe and the cups measure approximately 6″ long.  You can get them online in the US for US$9.95 here.
