Steph's Krissy wishlist

Dear Kris,
I have been extra good this year. I would like you to know I've been brushing my teeth well and eating my vegetables.

I am a simple girl, with simple needs. For example, Pandora has some nice charms which would be a good addition to my Pandora bracelet - normal size charm.

I've also seen come cool Yoga Joes that i'd like to put in my house. If you ordered them soon, they could get to mum n dad's house in time for xmas.! They are so funny!

It would be great to receive a new pair of Brooks Ghost 9 Womens running shoes. Size 8.

I also have a wishlist on Amazon for some books that may be found in general book stores:

  • Any book by Pema Chodron, my favourite buddhist nun.
  • The whole brain child - Dan Siegel
  • Difficult conversations - Stone, Patton, Heen
  • Out of our minds; learning to be creative - Robinson
  • The element; how finding your passion changes everything - Robinson

Colums 2016 list

Have been cooking up quite a storm on my new smoker and need a couple of things to compliment it. 1. A trimming/boning knife of good quality. I like the victorinox swibo range. Doesnt have to be this one but I would like this shape. Can even be a little more curved. Must be of this style and not too flexible. http://www.everten.com.au/victorinox-swibo-boning-knife-curved-blade-16-cm.html?gclid=CjwKEAiAsMXBBRD71KWOh6fcjRwSJAC5CNE1U1BQrhtbWhtqVR8us8JFHeCZhmetUoPoQBNnH3Kc9RoCmpHw_wcB 2. The 'Franklin BBQ, a meat smoking manifesto' book, I think it is available at dymocks, I have seen it at BBQs Galore as well. http://www.bookdepository.com/Franklin-Barbecue-Aaron-Franklin/9781607747208 If you cant get it then any of these will do. http://ausbbq.com.au/great-books-on-barbecue/ But please not a genral BBQ cookbook, must be Low and Slow BBQ. 3. A VERY large nylon cutting board. I'm talking around 50 - 60 cms long.

Dear Santa
Its hard for you I know as I am a woman who has everything (almost but not quite) anyway I need some new mascara, dark brown but not the lash building one, Lancome or Clinic or Chanel.
A snazzy kneeling pad for the garden would be nice.
I'm always in the market for Chanel 5 eau de perfume.
Cant think of anything else xx

More ideas for Santa

Santa, you know how I like fishing well I have heard you can get a new kind of killer fishing line! If possible could you fit some braid line in your bag, about 3 kg line and about 130-150 metres? Those fish need some more thinning out!
