I've been wanting this since my friend in Utah shared it with me. She got one for Mother's Day and loved it. I knew Andy wouldn't let me splurge on it without a special occasion so when it was Christmas and I still wanted it,he got it for me!
Breville Tea Maker
This thing is awesome! I put the tea in the basket and it will heat the water, lower the basket for the correct amount of time, then raise the basket so the tea doesn't get too strong and will keep the tea warm for 1 hr. I can also heat water with it for my Crio Bru and reheat the tea if it sits for more than a hr. It has an autostart button so I can have it ready when I wake like all my coffee drinker friends! You can customize brewing or use the preset buttons. It's amazing!!!! There is nothing more frustrating than brewing some yummy tea and then get distracted by the kids and realize it's been steeping for the past 20 minutes and you have to start all over!
The other gift I received is one you wouldn't think someone would get so excited about...a toothbrush. But this isn't just any toothbrush. This is the Mac Daddy of toothbrushes!

It's a Phillips Sonicare toothbrush. They are expensive as far as toothbrushes go, but my teeth have NEVER felt cleaner expect for when I leave the dentist's office. Andy didn't have to ask about this gift - he actually surprised me by listening to what I had been saying. I had asked him about his, tried it and liked it, but didn't want to spend that much money on a toothbrush. I understood why he splurged on one - he's had a terrible time this year with dental care. He's had some issues with crowns, etc. I was incredibly surprised by this and continue to thank him for such a great gift.
As you can tell, I'm not your typical girl. I don't ask for shiny things or extravagant things...Just some nice, practical things that make my life easier!
