Ever swirl wine around a glass? That’s the idea behind Ceramic For Mix, a revolutionary drinking vessel. Gently swirl the mug to set the ceramic ball at the bottom into motion and stir the contents. The ball is kept in place by a slightly protruding base when stirring and drinking. Goodbye, spoon. It was nice knowin’ ya.
Some people are just born with that certain knack for guessing how much pasta to make. I am not one of the blessed and time after time end up with either too much or too little. I’ve seen those nifty little kitchen gadgets geared towards helping you measure portion sizes, but the SL16 Nooodle is so much better! And after you’re done cooking your pasta it doubles as a trivet. Love that it looks like a big wet noodle itself, too.

The oranges I’ve been consuming nearly every single day need a little resting place like this woven plastic basket. A little kitschy. A little roadside diner. A lot cheap.
I am the proud owner of eight Fiestaware place settings of various colors. And while I’m not all about being matchy-matchy I do love these 3-piece mixing bowl sets – especially the green. They’re just so Betty Crocker Classic.
I adore Tea forte and now they’ve out with the innovative idea of Tea-Over-Ice. Hot tea is steeped in the upper pitcher, then immediately poured over ice in the lower pitcher for the freshest brewed iced tea possible. Quite the presentation.

See the resemblance between the radiator mug and under the hood of your car? Thought so. The ridges in the mug help to keep your hand from burning off while drinking hot beverages.

I love these jumbo mugs for a million different reasons. Mainly because of the bevy of great colors available, the great shape and the stackability. Since I’ve been nursing cup after cuppa hot tea for about a week and a half now I have a renewed respect for these beauties!
Needless to say, with an iffy stomach I haven’t been able to drink any of my mandatory coffee for the past few days. And it’s killing me! I’m pretty sure I’d at least feel better about it if I had the La Sorrentina coffee machine to gaze upon. What a beautiful example of form meeting function – love the steam nozzle hanging off the back!
This underlay ladder would look incredible down the center of a dining table. So much more functional than using five different trivets!
Holy fun kitchen-y and entertaining goodness at Crate & Barrel!
