Foodie Friday has a new theme this week, but don't worry, there's a recipe at the end. About this time of year, it is a good idea to take inventory of your kitchen. We all will be in this room much more during the Fall and Winter months. With the holidays ahead, we also will be entertaining inside more. It always seems that everyone ends up in the kitchen with me. What kind of statement does the heart of your home make? This is a roundup of cooks tools that are worthy of your own chic counter tops.
Here: 17 Standout Styles For The Kitchen
You know, once I did my own Kitchen refresh, away went the canisters. They just weren't nice enough anymore. These however, are gorgeous, and proof that you can mix metals.
CB2
That gold knob is really the icing on the cake, isn't it? Your white marble, or black and white kitchen needs this now! Perfect for stews, soups, beef bourguignon and coq au vin. Now on sale and sold exclusively at
Williams Sonoma
I can't tell you the last time I bought a colander. What about you? Draining those Brussels sprouts and Yukon Golds will be a little more fun using this glam gadget. Also available in copper.
Anthropologie
Inspired by old hotels, roadside diners and coffee shops, this collection is beyond chic. Have fun mixing and matching, as each piece is affordable and sold individually.

One part function and the other part industrial fashion. Meant for the counter or tabletop, they also will organize the mail. Of special note, this shop is offering the terrific trivets considerably less than anywhere else.
Shop Horne
It's porcelain, pretty, and perfect for Fall. This is one item I don't own, but if I did, I would be making an apple tarte tatin this weekend.
AHAlife
The perfect pumpkin! Celebrate the Fall harvest
with this chic cocotte. You will take it from oven to table when serving stews and soups. Made in France, it will last a lifetime.

From the "Tools To The Table Collection," this is a pretty pair. It's an elegant addition to a cheese plate in the kitchen or anywhere in your home.
Williams-Sonoma
Our best kitchen accessory is always our family, especially the children. The family that cooks together.....Well, these are just the best unisex aprons ever. Simple but made with fine linen and cotton. Each apron is packaged with a small preserves jar and includes three blank recipe cards to share. A lovely gift!

A good tray is indispensable in the kitchen. These are good looking, affordable, and will work with most kitchen styles. Oh! Some of them are on sale, too.

"See food." Handmade from beaker glass, these serve up soup, pasta, and sides from the oven to the table. They easily will mix with your own serverware collection.
CB2
Chic checks. You wouldn't dare hide these in the kitchen drawer!
Neiman Marcus
Lightweight and modern cookware, exactly what I have been looking for! These are not what you think they are. Instead they are actually aluminum cored with a non stick coating. Designed by architect Matteo Thun, they are sleek and functional from the cooktop to the oven and into the fridge.

I need these. They are cleverly crafted and combine beauty and utility in one. Sold as a set.

I love the use of a cloth napkin in the kitchen. This style is modern and sophisticated. The hand painted pattern is a take on the designers love for graphic art.
