Kitchen Faves

Kitchen Faves



Williams-Sonoma Essential Oils Collection, Meyer Lemon / Crate & Barrel Heritage Hill 64 oz. Glass Jar with Lid / Crate & Barrel "Coffee" Mug / Crate & Barrel Rub Away Bar


I was just unloading the dishwasher at 5AM this morning. Yep, I said 5AM on a Saturday morning. I have actually been up for a while. Here is the thing - I wake up EARLY on Saturdays. Always - never fails. I really like getting up early (when I don't have to go to work).
I tend to get a lot done in the quiet hours.

Coco is usually right under my feet as usual. I am sure she wishes I would go back to bed. Maxi visits occasionally, but typically ends up back in bed with his dad.

Anyway, this morning as I was cleaning out the dishwasher, I started thinking of some of my favorite kitchen items.

 You may remember this post from a few weeks ago listing some of my favorite items for the kitchen. The above items made the cut this time.

1. Rub Away Bar - This is my second one. The first one got ground up in the disposal - thanks hubs. This little guy is not only a topic of conversation when people use my kitchen sink, but it actually works! It is designed to take all the gross smells from your hands. You know - the gross garlic and onion smells that STICK to your hands. Well, no more with this little bar. Just rub it as you would a bar of soap under water. Presto - smells are gone!

2. I just adore this letter pressed set. The original group that I ordered actually look better than the second set. The first set resembled an old typewriter type. Some letters were darker than others and other little imperfections in the lettering. The second set is still cute. It's just that the type is very dark and not old typewriter looking. The cup is HUGE and that I like. Sometimes I even eat my oatmeal from one!

3.Heritage Jars - great jars to use as canisters. I use one of the bigger ones for my cashew packs, KIND bars and other healthy goodies. This would be a great cookie jar.

4. Meyer Lemon - Smells great in this hand soap/lotion caddy. Smells even better with the real thing. I had my first Meyer Lemon a few weeks ago. I am a huge fan now. They are a bit sweeter than normal lemons. Be careful how many you buy though. They don't last long.

Enjoy your day!

  1. Don't forget the Meyer Lemon cleaner. It is a personal favorite for cleaning granite countertops, leaving them shiny and smelling lovely! BTW, the coffee set from Crate and Barrel is super cute!
