These live on my kitchen counter!
I actually prep 3 salads at once to eat over the next few days and this has been such a time saver. My trick is to lay a piece of paper tower on the bottom of the glass to absorb all the extra liquid from the leaves and they stay crunchy.

When I say we LOVE this mat, it's an understatement. We've tried all kinds of mats only to find mildew and yucky stuff under or it just holds on to the water inside and smells terrible after a few days. This is a must in our kitchen!
Stone Mat For Dishes
Love this sleek compost bin for our countertop. It can also go under the sink (we just don't have the room). It has an air freshener and it's easy to clean.

Sleek and sexy kettle for tea lover. Love that this has multiple temperatures and you can keep it at that temperature if you'd like. No more heating up the kettle, getting busy with something and have to heat it up again!

Owala FreeSip Stainless Steel Water Bottle, 24oz, Very Very Black
TOTALLY SPILLPROOF! These are our fav water bottles for our 4yo. 20oz is big enough to last him the entire school day but not so big that the bottle is too heavy to carry. Plus, all parts are dishwasher safe and do not trap mold!

I absolutely love its sturdiness. Each bunk can accommodate up to 300lbs. My 4yo begs to sleep with me every night so I oblige. The frame is fully metal so when I say it’s sturdy, the bed does not budge at all when the older boys shift in their sleep...
