I thought I had ample kitchen counter space, until I started baking and baking. And. Baking.
Now, I have bread everywhere, in different stages, all over the kitchen, and it seems, I need some extra flat area. Just a little. Like the little I’d get from a handy rolly cart like this one.
The perfect size, small [...]

Any tree-hugger who packs a lunch will soon be thrilled with the idea of eliminating (or at least reducing) their contribution to the millions of plastic lunch bags dumped in the landfill every day.
I know I am.
My kids take their lunch to school every day because the thought of the school cafeteria is more than [...]

My parents have an enormous group of close friends in their small Texas town. They gather frequently and food is always involved. You know about small town potlucks, right? Tons of food. Every kind of delectable dish imaginable, most of it made with butter.

The Godinger Revolving Cupcake Stand is the perfect way to display your baking prowess in a classy, not so I’m-awesome-and-you’re-not kinda way. Although, if you can make cupcakes that look like these and taste great, you ARE awesome (and I’m not).
I fall into the “I can bake but not decorate” category, so any help I [...]

I’ve never figured out how to eat from a plate while holding it, except to lower my face inches from the [...]
While the River Stones Platter would be beautiful sitting on the counter holding fruit, I especially love the idea of serving something organic in it. Constructed in Italy of natural stones and food-grade resin, this platter replicates the look of stones underwater. Great gift idea (yes, the holidays are coming soon!) for that hard-to-buy person [...]
Cuteness alert. Do not read any further if you are smitten with baby lambs, bunnies or other adorable things. And do not, I repeat, do not, look at these or even these.

Although I can’t eat soup when it’s hot outside because it cooks my body from the inside out, soup will happen soon. Because I’m optimistic about the weather getting cooler.
So long refreshingly crisp salad… hello warm hearty soup.
That’s right. It’s called the power of positive thinking and I’m practicing it right now. I want to [...]
All our drinking cups have disappeared. Poof. Gone. And I’m not talking about a few small juice glasses. I’m talking about at least a dozen large plastic cups in vivid colors such as blue and green. Absent from my kitchen.
I found one in the boy’s closet, God only knows why [...]
Do you know Nambé? I first met this sleek stuff while in Santa Fe a thousand years ago, pre-kids. Then, I was enamored by the smooth artistic nature of these pieces. I still am.
Crafted by pouring a secret melted metal alloy into a hand-made sand cast and then polishing the daylights out of it, by [...]
