Starting in September, my mother starts hounding me for a Christmas list. And though it takes me until about Thanksgiving to get back to her, there are a few items that I am saving up to buy on my own.

Complete indulgences, major bucks, and the result of living in a 1st world country – I present to you my ongoing Wish List…

1.  Kitchen Aid Mixer

 I have been wanting one of these bad boys for quite awhile. I am much more of a baker than a cook, but there is something so domestic that lies within owning one of these suckers. I feel like if I had one, I would stare at it and use it every day.

2.  iMac

I am an Apple girl through and through, and though I love my MacBookPro, I want my desktop computer back so I can do a lot more editing of photos and videos, as well as indulge in a little bit of Sim action :) I’m a gamer at heart…

3. Cannon Mark D II

I currently have a Rebel that I purchased back in 2010, but we’re approaching 2014 and I’m ready to graduate :) I have a few different lenses, but I have promised myself that before I make this giant purchase, I will have learned to shoot in Manual mode. That might take me a few years to do, so we have time to save for this…

4. Turn Table (though I’m pretty sure a tall, dark, handsome man already bought that for me for Christmas…)

What is on your wish list??
