"Smells like old people," said my daughter when we popped into Mitchell Road Antiques and Design Gallery in Newtown yesterday. If she's thinking of elegantly, delicately gardenia-scented well-dressed and beautifully coiffed older people I'd have to agree. If not, she's being a little harsh as only 11-year-olds can be.
Mitchell Road is one of my favourite haunts as there are always gems to be found in the massive space. We were there Christmas shopping for vintage-loving friends like myself and came away with a few kitchen pieces that will once again mash spuds ($6), beat cream and eggs ($20) and hold sugar ($15). The jar is an old Bushell's jar so it's having a tea-change.
I've been after one of these Australian-made stainless steel Swift Whips ever since finding one at a holiday house we stayed at last year. It's so quick and easy and slots in beautifully between a whisk and my Kitchenaid.
