We're always looking for ways to make our pies prettier - our crusts certainly aren't of a prize-winning breed. Maybe this weighty-looking brass pie tool and crimper would put some style in our crusts. We like the look of it and its elegant sheen. This is a Buy It Now item and it's going for $29.95.

Chocolate has had some classy advertising. There are beautiful poster prints for sale on eBay, with lush, romantic images used to sell chocolate over the last hundred years; we would like to hang one or two in our kitchen for inspiration.

We love the worn-in, hearty look of Jamie Oliver's new show, Jamie At Home. The camera lingers on generous glugs of olive oil and crazing lines in old ceramic jugs while Jamie smokes fish and yanks hot peppers out of the garden.

We predicted that casseroles and other slow cooked meals will make a come back this year. If you're looking to do more one-pot cooking while adding some high-end shine to your slow cooked winter warmers, how about this slow cooker from All-Clad?

This Craigslist seller is offering the All-Clad slow cooker for $100. This model comes with a timer that will cook for a set period of time and then move to keep warm mode. Pretty handy if you get stuck late at the office. Any Kitchn readers own this high end slow cooker?

We couldn't pass up this one: this Vintage Mixer Thing is currently going for just 99 cents, and the seller has no idea what "this thing is".

They say, I KNOW IT'S OLD. IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S FOR MIXING SOMETHING, IT IS MARKED "ANDROCK PATENT PENDING MADE IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" ON THE PART THAT YOU TURN TO SPIN IT. IT IS MADE OF CHROME PLATED STEEL. IT MEASURES ABOUT 7"X4"X4"

Does anyone want to take a guess at what this is? A hand-crank sifter? An egg beater of unusual design?

Shipping is $6.99 and the auction ends today. More eBay picks after the jump.

It's currently going for $3.24. Shipping is $7.25 and the auction ends December 16. Click through for more eBay picks.
