Back To The Daily Grind With Fred

Fred and Friends Daily Grind Pepper Grinder

After a long weekend, it can be hard to go back to the daily grind. But, it must be done, so we go forth into the day and look that workweek right in the face — and sneeze in it. With a pepper grinder, that is.

Pepper may make us sneeze, but it also happens to be a delicious spice. Putting a new twist on getting pepper from peppercorn to plate, the Fred and Friends Daily Grind Pepper Grinder offers a charming way to fend off those workday blues.

As the pepper mill grinds the spice, the bodies and heads of the restaurant staff get mixed up; the chef, wine sommelier, waiter and patron all become one. Bright and colorful, the whimsical beechwood kitchen tool offers a fun way to get back to the daily grind — by facing it head-on with a handful of pepper.

How Rocky Drinks Tea

Egg Tea Infuser by Decodyne

You know that scene in Rocky when Sylvester Stallone drinks the raw eggs? Sure you do. If not, you can be reminded of it below. (Ewww… salmonella). I’m not sure if that’s what the makers of the Decodyne Egg Tea Infuser had in mind when they designed this tea steeper, but that’s what it looks like. But remember, tea is much darker than raw egg protein slurry that Rocky drank — so you don’t have to look at the egg while drinking it!

Owl Napkin Holder With Salt & Pepper Shakers

Grasslands Road Owl Napkin Holder With Salt & Pepper Shakers Gift Set

Some things just go together: peanut butter and jelly, salt and pepper, owls and napkins. The Grasslands Road Owl Napkin Holder With Salt & Pepper Shakers Gift Set understands. Well, the last two on the list at least.

The owl-shaped accessory stands guard over the tabletop, holding napkins and at the ready with salt and pepper. Featuring magnetic inserts to keep the little owls in place, the set is sure to find daily use. And considering how many napkins messy peanut butter and jelly sandwiches require, perhaps the wise old napkin-holding owl does understand that too.

Gag Gift: Big Mouth Ultimate Wine Bottle Glass

Big Mouth Ultimate Wine Bottle Glass

Gag gifts can be tricky business; sometimes the gag is on the gifter and not on the giftee. No, not because of inappropriateness or other faux pas, but because they arrive to the party flat-out empty handed. Why? Because they decided to keep the gag gift instead of give it away.

Considering that the Big Mouth Toys Ultimate Wine Bottle Glass is actually made of glass and not cheap plastic, it’s a novelty gift that might not end up in the hands of the intended recipient. Anticipating this, the product page actually has an option to purchase a set of two. Of course, the 149 customer reviews filled with people saying they kept the wine glass bottle instead of gifting it probably clued them in. Cheers!
