I have scoured Amazon for some of this year’s best Black Friday finds that I’m sure you will love. Whether keeping for yourself, or buying gifts for someone else, these are some of this year’s best items for the cook in your life, in my opinion.

Smoothies are my breakfast every morning through the work week. Having a good smoothie blender is important. This Vitamix Blender is a great choice for blending smoothies, making milkshakes, or making cream soups.

During the holidays, there is always a lot of baking. Thanksgiving pies and then Christmas cookies, breads, and cakes all take good baking pans. This 8pc baking pan set is ideal for making sure you have all the pans you need for all that baking you will be doing. The pans are also a great gift for college students, newly weds in their first year of marriage, and that woman or man that has been baking for so long that their pans are getting too worn to use any more.

When cooking meat or grilling meat, you need a good meat thermometer. If you are like me, my husband would like a meat thermometer better than myself. This Ninja Pro wireless thermometer is so cool and is at a great price.

An enameled dutch oven is one of my favorite items in my kitchen. I cook gumbo, chili, stew, pot roast, and cider in mine. Amazon Basics has an enameled cast iron round dutch oven on sale that is a great steal of a deal. Cast iron is one of those items you can keep forever if you take care of it.

Paris Hilton has a cute dishware line that covers everything you need. I have selected a few items that I thought were very cute and worth the buy: a knife set, an expandable colander that goes over the sink, an electric mug warmer set, electric milk brother, and this really cute ceramic cookware set.
