QuikTops

So I'm relaxing after work, watching a recording of Changing Rooms when a commercial comes on and before I can skip forward, my attention is caught. These QuikTops, found on QVC, look ingenious. I'm always leaving half-filled cans of soda around. Apparently, you can use the lids as a cup or a coaster, too. Talk about convenience.

Sarah Magid Cakes

Thanks to Oh Joy, I read about these cakes by Sarah Magid! I thought they were soooo beautiful and fun (and look super delicious!). Enjoy!

Silicups

I'd like to know if these Silicups from Williams-Sonoma really work. They look so pretty, and I like the idea of reusing them (save on paper and such). But are they hard to clean? Plus, you'd probably have to make a lot of cupcakes for it to be worth it. Still, when I eventually have a well-stocked kitchen, I think these may have to be part of it.

All Choked Up

My family always had artichokes with special meals, like on Christmas Eve and Easter. I always gave the heart away because it was my least favorite part. I haven't ever cooked an artichoke on my own, but I think I would if I had one of these nifty Vertichokes found at Sur La Table.
