Chef’n Watermelon Slicester
I’m a huge fan of watermelon, but not the inevitable mess it creates. This slicer transforms your melon-cutting experience, resulting in less mess and perfectly cut pieces. Another perk? You don’t even have to touch the fruit — the rubber tongs at the end do that for you.

Staub Cast Iron Lid Holder
The Staub cast iron pieces I own are my absolute favorite items in my kitchen. Countertops stay protected from heat and drippings with the Staub Iron Lid Holder. You simply prop the lid on the stand until you need to put it back on.
