Pure Komachi Knives

02.21.11

My sister called me up the other day to tell me that she’d found the perfect knives for me. I think she’s right! How great are these colorful knives??Modern Knife Set

Brad’s not so sure about them, but I think it would be nice to have a sunny little rainbow greet you every time you open the knife drawer. They have fantastic reviews online and since she called me last week they’ve come down in price another $20 bucks! I’m really tempted. We’ve been using the same set of steak knives we picked up from the Monticello Merc since we got married over ten years ago. It’s high time we upgraded to some grown up knives. (That is if you consider brightly colored knives ‘grown up’.)

Pyrex Storage

11.18.10

Modern Organization

I’ve been wanting to get rid of my tupperware and make the switch to glass storage for a looooong time now. Not only does it look prettier in the fridge and cabinets, but it’s way healthier, too. (BPA free people!) I feel like I’m poisoning my myself and my family every time I heat something up in plastic. And with all our dishes and what not in storage, plastic tupperware has been our only option. Well not any more my friend!

In my search for some nice glass storage I looked at what felt like a gazilion different options, some of which were pretty pricey. Then it dawned on me: Pyrex! Pyrex is awesome. We own a ridiculous amount of it. (mostly bakeware) So I thought I’d take a look and see what storage options they offered. We ended up buying two sets of the Pyrex No Leak Lids. They just arrived today and I’m a little too excited about it. I’m loading up all my stained, scratched, warped, uglyware and tossing it into the recycling bin. Woo hoo! Feels good!

Simple Modern Kitchen

simple modern kitchen

I’ve been in the kitchen all morning putting the finishing touches on Brad’s birthday cake. I’m ready to dig in and celebrate! Wish I could have spent my baking and frosting time in a kitchen that looked like this, though. Wow. Beautiful, right? I love the simplicity and the wood grain is gorgeous. (That little boy is super cute, too! :) ) The lucky owner of this kitchen blogs here. There are lots of beautiful images to stare at so check it out!

Ooh! I like these! I’m filing this under my “must try” for future projects. (You wouldn’t believe how big that list is getting!) I have to wait until we move, because we simply don’t have the space in this little house. Here’s hoping we sell soon!

Get the directions at ReadyMade.
