Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

We’re a little late. OK, we’re a lot late. There is no time at all to pop in to the Mitchell & Dent studio or the little online shop and pick up one of these cards for your yummy mummy before Sunday. Besides, we’re not really sure a piece of paper, no matter how lovely Madame Mitchell’s illustrations are, cuts it anyway – surely the woman who squeezed you out of her nether regions, tied your shoelaces, kissed away those falling-off-the-bicycle tears, replaced your dead goldfish/guineapig/hermitcrab so you wouldn’t be upset, helped you with your homework even though she had no clue, kept quiet about how much she hated that boyfriend with the tattoos, snuck you extra cash when your first job earned you a pittance – surely she deserves an actual cup of tea and a chitchat. Happy Mothers Day, M&D mums!

The wooden spoon is traditionally presented to the person placed last in the mathematics degree exam at Cambridge University. I would be top runner for this award – especially if it was a Nic Webb wooden spoon.

I have 80% of half a new kitchen and my weekend chore was to empty the old cutlery draw into the new cutlery draw. In the midst of abandoning a decade’s worth of chopsticks, I found my long lost baby spoon and was instantly transported back to childhood. My sister’s baby spoon had a kitten on it and I was always secretly jealous, but with hindsight, I lucked out. Mine is silver and more traditional, shaped a bit like one of these beautiful bone china spoons by Caroline Swift. You can also read about her in the latest issue of Dumbo feather, pass it on. Inspirational. Glorious.

It is just ridiculous what you can find on Etsy. We spotted these beautiful wooden products by Nature Design there and fell in love. Handcrafted by a father and son team, they create kitchen products from aromatic woods like juniper, alder, cobnut and apple trees. Of course, we can’t promise they meet Australian quarantine standards, but wooden it be lovely if they did?
