The smart cutters and choppers these days are using ceramic knives because they stay so sharp for so long, and who remembers to have their knives sharpened? Ours measure 7" long over all, with a red, green, or deep aqua handle, a 3" blade and a sheath. Don't go into the kitchen without one. Slice, dice, chop and mince, and forget about sharpening. Like you always do.

Four fine funnels, a fantastic fare. Sturdy plastic, the biggest is 4-1/8" dia at the mouth, with a 1/2" dia spout, the smallest has a 1-7/8" dia mouth, 1/4" spout. The other (2) are in between. Frankly, it's freaky fun flowing fluids from four funnels!

These silicone hot pads double as trivets or oven mitts. Measure 7-1/8" dia x 3/16" thick with 1/4" honeycomb indentations to further dissipate heat, plus a 3/8” hole near the edge so you can hang them up. We’ll pick one in red, blue, green or orange, and you can redecorate your kitchen to match. They also double as the world’s safest frizbees.

Our most colorful measuring set, and the most nestingest. The (6) pieces snap together and stay together until you push up from below on the handles. The scoops include: 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup. 1/4 cup, 1 tbsp, and 1/2 tbsp--in aqua, purple, pink, yellow, green and orange in the same order. And they’re BPA-free.

Konvenient for kamping! And kramped kitchen kabinets! These nesting, collapsible silicone and plastic bowls are made for campers but they work great at home, too, particularly for apartment-dwellers, whose space is precious. In gray and powder blue. You’ll get an 8” dia x 5” deep bowl, a 7” dia x 3-3/4” deep bowl, and a 7-1/2” x 4-1/2” deep colander. Smoosh them down and they turn into one 11” wide (counting handles) x 2-1/2” deep nest. Pay no attention to the temperature misprint on the package; these bowls are good for up to 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mats-R-Us, and we’ll prove it with this 3-piece set of flexible cooking mats, including a 15" x 12" white plastic, flexible chopping mat; a 13" x 15-1/2" black plastic (PTFE) grill mat to keep smaller items from falling onto the coals; and our fave, a 14-1/2" square crispy cooker that prevents frozen pizza soggification, among other things.

Trouble keeping your geologic eras straight? We feel your Paleozoic pain. This colorful 12-oz ceramic mug has a graphic timeline wrapped around it illustrating the Pre-Cambrian era up through Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic periods. And if you’re a good geology student, and finish all your coffee, you’ll see an impression of a trilobite fossil in the bottom of the cup. Microwave and dishwasher safe.

If the Tin Man had been plastic, this would have been his lid, and he'd have been rust-free. Our giant plastic funnel is 9-3/4" dia with a 3-1/8" long x 15/16" ID neck. Just under 10" tall top to bottom. Could be red or green depending on which way the surplus wind blows. Hang it by the little tab with a hole on the top edge. Buy (3), get a tennis ball, and run the biggest shell game in town.

This 4" wide plastic bulldog clip has serrated jaws to hang on tight, and a light fridge-strength magnet on the back. We’ll pick five (5) from our selection of gray, light blue or bluish-greenish-blue clips adorned with assorted misprints. You can ignore the words. You can also ignore the magnet and just use them to reseal your nacho chips, which makes them chip clips.

Our hand-held knife and scissors sharpener has a pair of tungsten carbide heads pre-set at the correct angle for keeping an edge on things. Just rest the blade in the notch and pull. Pistol-grip style with a guard, in black plastic. Measures 6" x 5/8" wide, with reversible and replaceable carbide cutting heads.
