I don't know about you, but I find that gifting the male members of my family particularly difficult. Also, unlike women, they don't hint at what they might like...
Also ich finde die männlichen Mitglieder meiner Familie besonders schwer zu beschenken, ihr auch? Anders als Frauen geben sie ja (meistens) keine Hinweise...
I finally found something that the hubby might enjoy, seeing as he's the biggest movie buff ever!! What's better than enjoying fresh buttered popcorn while watching the latest blu-ray movie on his 3D flatscreen in the mancave? That's what I thought anyway, plus I really liked the nostalgic look of this gadget, and since it's red, it fits right into our kitchen colour scheme :-D
Dann habe ich endlich etwas passendes für meinen Mann (leidenschaftlicher Cineast) entdeckt - diese witzige nostalgische Popcornmaschine. Was gibt's besseres als frisches Popcorn und die neueste Blu-ray DVD? Fast wie im Kino! Zudem passt die Maschine gut in unsere Küche :-D
Red seemed to be the recurring theme this holiday ~ even Sammy got something red! It's a snackball. The purpose of this ball, which is filled with my cat's favourite snacks, is activity for indoor cats.
Die Farbe Rot fand sich auch in Sammy's Weihnachtsgeschenk wider ~ ein Snackball. Da unser Kater träge ist hoffen wir, dass dieser Ball ihn zu etwas mehr Bewegung animiert.
Take care!
Bis bald!

That popcorn devise looked great. May your New Year catch you by surprise with happiness and joy. Thanks for visiting my blog. Gypsy was one of a kind. Her spirit will always be with me, Roland
ReplyDeleteLiebe Duni,
ReplyDeletedie Maschine ist toll! Das wär auch was für meinen Sohn. Der hat sich zu Weihnachten eine Granitamaschine gewünscht. Ich habe auch eine ganz tolle Retro-Maschine in den USA gefunden, aber das wär zu teuer mit Versand geworden und ausserdem haben die ja ein anderes Stromnetz....
Mit Deiner Krankheit, das tut mir leid! Worunter immer du auch leidest, ich wünsche Dir, dass du gesund wirst!!!
Liebe Grüße
Yvonne
How fun! I liked what you did with the last photo of the popcorn machine--I can just see this machine in an old theater.

GREAT idea for a gift! Those guys are always hard to buy for, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteI need a snack ball for Hobbes. It got cold this morning and he is depressed that it is toooo cold to go outside. He needs something to do to work off his energy, poor guy. Let me know if Sammy likes that thing.
Super schöne Idee, Nostalgie und modern zugelich;)
ReplyDeleteLecker außerdem und ein hauch von Romantik zu zweit auf dem Sofa ♥

LOVE the popcorn maker! I hope he liked it and that it makes yummy popcorn!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea for a gift! You gotta have popcorn while watching movies! I haven't seen one of those snackballs before but I bet it's fun for Sammy to get those treats out! He's so cute! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect gift for your man! I love making popcorn and always use an air popper (although mine is not as cute at this)! Sammy looks satisfied with his gift too!
ReplyDeleteGuys are definitely tough to shop for! That's a cute idea for your husband. I hope that he enjoys it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun gift for both your husband and Sammy. I always have a hard time trying to figure out what to get my husband.
ReplyDeleteI love the popcorn maker, and red is just the right color:) Happy New Year Duni:)

I agree Duni. It's really hard to give presents to the members of the male populace. They don't give an idea of what they want and their range of interest is so undefined. :) But as for the popcorn maker, I love it. It's nostalgic and so cute.
ReplyDeleteEin sehr süßes Geschenk!
ReplyDeleteLiebe Grüße,

Liebe Duni,
ReplyDeletedanke für den Tipp mit dem Städtchen Winterswijk. Kennst du noch ein schönes Hotel in der Gegend von Bocholt?! Liebe Grüße
Jutta
That is such a cute gift Duni. I actually have a Nostalgia Ice Shaver. They have such cute vintage inspired designs.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you hit on a great idea. I think I have too. If I visit you regularly, maybe I can at last learn some German. (I have been trying.)
ReplyDeleteLiebe Duni,
ReplyDeleteDanke für den Hotel Tipp. Auf da Hotel Residenz sind wir auch im Internet gestoßen, es macht einen guten Eindruck.
Liebe Grüße
Jutta
Hi lovely,

I love this popcorn machine! It would honestly make a great gift for me, I need to point my family to your blog post to hint to them :)
ReplyDeleteHappy new year!
That's a lovely gadget! Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for following. The town is Bernkastel on the Mosel.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great gift (for both). My husband is a big movie buff too. I will only watch a movie if I can be doing some stitching or something.
ReplyDeleteLove your greeting below! That little characters are adorable!
Danke für Deine lieben Worte bei mir!

love the popcorn machine! (I love popcorn!) I bet this gift was a hit!
ReplyDeleteThe kitty snack ball is intriguing. I'll have ot check into that.
Love the popcorn maker. And I agree that it's much harder to find gifts for men; they always say, "I don't need anything." Also, cute kitty! :)
