Santa Baby! (Not Food Related...well kinda food related)

I work retail and it is a true story that the Christmas decorations were already up DAYS before Halloween.  This my friends has a name, and it is overkill! Sure I am an old wizened bitter retail worker that has been working it for 15 long years, but there is something about putting decorations up two holidays before the actual holiday that gets to me, regardless of my feelings about Christmas Cheer.
Nevertheless those damn decorations got me thinking of what I would put on my list this year. (And the fact that I need to start planning on what to get for the rest of my friends and family, especially since all most of my peeps live out of state.)
    I have reached a point in my life where the thought of a new Le Creuset pan or new flat wear gets me going rather than makeup, clothes or "things(aka that which must be dusted), even though I have makeup on my list!
So my question to you is...
What's on your list this year, cooking related or non?
And here is a snap shot of mine:

drool
Unfortunately, its on closeout.  But I only need 4 6 place settings!


Le Creuset LOVELIES  Yup I would pretty much keel over to have some Le Creuset.  Flame if you please!




The Cake Biblebaking isn't my strong suit and I want to get better at it. Perhaps a little inspiration would help! Besides this is the penultimate of cake books the author not only explains the chemistry behind making intense cakes, she has plenty of five minute recipes as well!

   

A Roomba:I have been wanting one of these bad boys for so long!!! I just imagine how hair free our house would be.  SA however is very against them and convinced they wont work. Boo SA boo.



Mint and Vanilla: Quite possibly two of my favourite scents from Yankee Candle.

MAC eyeshadow kit: Reelers and Rockers set.  Mmmmm perfect colors!



Shape Ups: I think these would be even more comfortable than danskos!

I don't actually have a website for these... just 00 gauge swallow plugs for my ears!



So here is a quick snapshot at what I would love to get...now my question for you is..what is on YOUR LIST?!
(and have you been naughty or nice?!)

I am just like you, I'd rather have something for the kitchen than anything else. This year, I want a cast iron griddle that goes on two burners on my stove.
