It's time again for Kitchen Crushes! This time I'm swooning over my new Trudeau pepper mill. I had a minor (okay major) freak out in early December when I found out I won this 16-inch beauty in an online contest by the good people at Food Bloggers of Canada. A pepper mill had been at the top of my Christmas wish list, so there was dancing and jumping and phoning of people when I read I was the winner! I mean just look at it. Sleek, solid wood in a dark shade of espresso. A stunner!
The dancing and jumping resumed when my gorgeous beechwood grinder arrived on my doorstep a week before Christmas. As if Trudeau wasn't awesome enough for sending me a mill from their Professional series, they sent me a matching salt mill too! Swoon again!
These babies, with their carbon steel grinders, come with lifetime warranties. Perfect! Because I'm going to use a lot of pepper now.
So, I owe a big thanks to Food Bloggers of Canada and Trudeau for bringing freshly ground pepper and salt to my life. I also owe a big thanks to Mr. Feedbag who promptly dug out a receipt and returned the pepper mill he had bought me for Christmas. He assures me, having shopped around, my prize is in the fancypants category of pepper mills.
