Don’t Get Your Feet Off The Table

Flip Flops TV Tray

Feet normally aren’t supposed to be on the table. Same goes for footwear. However, the rules of etiquette are a little different down by the beach, and the same goes for this Flip Flops TV Tray. With all the bright crazy colors going on, nobody is going to mind if you kick up your kicks for a little slow-down relaxing. Besides, with those zany patterns all over the table top, who is going to notice? Best to pick up two so as to have a matched set.

***Update 10/16/24: Hope you picked up two — seems this product has been discontinued.

Next Best Thing To A New Stove: New Knobz

Electric Stove Knobz - Fruit

Searching for a new look in the kitchen without the messy installation? (Or time… Or money…) Sometimes it’s a little thing that can go a long way. The Electric Stove Knobz are a clever idea designed to add a new touch of color to the kitchen without breaking the bank. Simply slide off the old stove knobs, and replace with a new set of four. Choose between a rooster or fruit motif and transform the stove for a price anyone can afford. Makes a good gift too. The hand-painted knobs are formed with durable resin and include adapters for use with most any brand. $29.95 for each set.

UPDATE 7/1/12: Sold out at the link above, but it looks like there is one White Range Replacement Knobs Fruit Design 4 Pack on Amazon, as well as these other replacement knobs options in case that one doesn’t last.

Fan Away (Some) Fried Food Evidence

Vornado Foldaway Under Cabinet Fan

Every kitchen needs a fan, some more than others. If you fry a lot of foods, the smell that lingers on in the kitchen can reveal your dining habits for far too long. Nobody likes to be thought of as a junk food master, so luckily those damning smells can be whisked away on an air current. Cutting a hole in the ceiling for a range hood vent is not always an option, but a fan sure is.

The Vornado Foldaway Under Cabinet Fan installs easily and swivels in any direction, offering a simple solution to chasing away unwelcome smells. An attractive alternative to a bulky standard fan, the under cabinet installation has the added benefit of folding away out of sight when not in use. Those pounds put on from all that fried food however, well, those might be harder to hide.
