Now Designs Takenoko Garlic Keeper

Now Designs Takenoko Garlic Keeper

Garlic is one of those tricky kitchen essentials. Where do you keep it? What does it go with? How long does it last in the refrigerator? The answers of course vary. Garlic works best at room temperature (fridge storage is not recommended), and what it goes with depends on where you are going! As in, better check with your date first.

As for storing the stinky rose, there are better options than leaving it out on the countertop or tucking it away in the cupboard. The Now Designs Takenoko Garlic Keeper is a classy mailbox for garlic that can be kept on the counter or mounted to the wall. Large enough to hold several bulbs, the garlic storage solution is an ideal addition to any house. Certainly better than an old shoe box — that wonderful garlic smell doesn’t need the competition.

Vintage Coffee Kitchen Collectibles Figurines

Vintage Coffee Kitchen Collectibles Figurines By Collections Etc

Coffee in the morning is an essential part of waking up. Or, one could just take a quick glance at any of these Vintage Coffee Kitchen Collectibles Figurines By Collections Etc. The set is comprised of coffee related accessories and all of these polyresin figures have crazy smiles on their faces. Not sure what they are so excited about though seeing as they are about to be ground, heated and brewed. Perhaps they have had too many cups of themselves to start off the day! In any event, the set is quite affordable at under $20 and would make for a fun gift for any coffee lover — assuming of course they can get past the expressions on these little guys in the morning.

Vegetabrella Shines When It Rains

Tokyo Noble Vegetabrella

Nothing brightens up a meal like a fresh salad. The same could be said for rainy days… as long as you have a Vegetabrella on hand. From their Facebook page:

The Vegetabrella is an umbrella that looks like a Romaine lettuce. It was designed by Yurie Mano and is produced by Tokyo Noble – a company specialized in the production of umbrellas. Each Vegetabrella is handmade by Tokyo artisans.

Now come on how cool is that? As in cool and crisp like the salad veggie you know always wanted to impersonate!

You can pick one up here if you are from Japan, and you can get the Vegetabrella here if you are not.

Fish Palm Tree Measuring Spoons

Crosby & Taylor Fish Measuring Spoon with Pewter Palm Tree Post

Whoever said fish doesn’t grow on trees was wrong. (I’m sure somebody, somewhere once may have said that. Maybe.) All it takes is one quick look at the Crosby & Taylor Fish Measuring Spoon with Pewter Palm Tree Post to put that fallacy to rest. Clearly, fish do grow on trees. Especially when they are both made of pewter.

Perhaps the product description says it best:

For those who love palm trees and fish, this set is a perfect combination of the practical and the innovative.

Palm trees and fish. Together at last!

Andy Warhol Campbell’s Soup Can Magnets

Andy Warhol Campbell’s Soup Can Magnets

Soup can do a lot of things. It can nourish, it can cure the common cold (well, at least make a cold more tolerable), and it can do one other surprising thing: it can be art.

The Andy Warhol Campbell’s Soup Can Magnets might not be edible, but they sure can spice up the kitchen. Stick ’em on the fridge and show everybody how you support soup. Or art. Either way.
