Answer 1

Is the problem that they're not lining up even? First I'd change your top margins and padding to be the same for both divs. They won't line up as is.

textblock currently has 0px top margin & padding.

brevillestandard has 13px top margin & padding.

Answer 2

If you're asking how to make them line up at the top, make the margin the same. The first one's top margin is inherited (probably 0px). The second one has a top margin of 5px.
