This Soccer Ball Melts In Your Drink
Apparently, there is something called the World Cup that is a big deal. I guess it’s a soccer tournament or something. Whether or not you are familiar this Bizarro World game of ‘football’ doesn’t matter, because now you can take home a piece of the action (at least until it melts away).
Tea Alarm Clock Belongs In The Kitchen
Alarm clocks are the enemy. As such, when they bleep their jarring blare in the morning, they deserve to be hit. Whoever invented the snooze button clearly understood this: not only is the magic button designed to shut the contraption up (albeit briefly) but the button is also usually placed right on top, conveniently within smacking range.
As enjoyable as waking up to breakfast (or at least caffeine) in bed may be, the snooze alarm always gets hit first, sadly placing the Swan Teasmade into the unusable category—at least while it’s within striking distance. Placed waaaaay over on that dresser, or maybe even in the bathroom, then they might be on to something. Or better yet, put in the kitchen and let it scream that it is time for tea all day long.

Handy Holders Keep Drinks Off The Grass
Grass is misleading. It looks like it should be all soft and fluffy, but in reality it’s sharp and pointy. And hardly as evenly-spaced as it looks. Along with sand (grrr…), grass has a tendency to just get in the way. However, cover it with a large blanket, and now you’re talking. Just add some warm weather and cool beverages and you got yourself an afternoon that can’t be beat. Until you try to set down your drink on bumpy grass or hot sand (grrr…).
For some of us, the Handy Holder Beverage Holders (Set of 2) by Picnic Plus makes perfect sense. Spiked into the ground, the hand-shaped 12-inch stainless-steel helper stabilizes your drink for you. As an added bonus, ice-cold beverages stay cooler longer, safely suspended up over the terrors of grass and sand.
Also available for wine.
Wine Tote For Alligator Pod People
Like some space alien pod, or perhaps a toothless alligator, the Picnic Time Legacy Encore Black Wine Case spits out a bottle of wine wherever you may be. Featuring a leatherette exterior, an insulated lining and a handy accessory drawer, the sleek wine case makes a wine-toting fashion statement from the swamp to space.
Pressed For Tea? Press Your Own
There are a great deal of options available to any on-the-go caffeine aficionado. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean the right choice is always available. More so than any other group of people, coffee and tea-drinkers know exactly how they take it, and their preferred option simply isn’t always available. For tea-drinkers, if this happens more often than not, perhaps it’s time to explore other options (without eliminating your favorite blend).
