I am super excited to be including KALORIK in our holiday gift guide again this year. I am a huge fan of KALORIK and their products and own many different items from this company that I personally use in my own home. Not only that, I love to purchase KALORIK products to give as Birthday gifts, Wedding gifts, Bridal Shower gifts and for Holiday gifts.

Today I am reviewing the 2-Slice Glass Panel Toaster from KALORIK. I first want to say this…I have owned many toasters in my 46 years of life and NONE of them even come close to the quality of this one!

Stainless Steel 2-Slot Glass Panel Toaster Features:

* Transparent double glass panel for viewing bread during browning process
* 2 slice, long slot, width 38mm (accommodates almost everything)
* High-lift function
* Stop/Defrost/Reheat function
* Bagel function
* 7 level adjustable browning control

* Stainless Steel housing

My Thoughts: I do a lot of cooking and entertaining here in my home. I would estimate that I use my toaster at least once a day. We love toasting a variety of breads, bagels, waffles, French toast, toaster pastries and other things in our toaster. We enjoy using it for breakfast foods and for snacks!

Wow, where do I begin with this one? First…I love that double glass panel front. I can see our food items inside the toaster as they are browning or reheating up. This ensures that I don’t burn anything! Not only that, if fascinates the Princess and she will sit there and stare at the toaster while I am toasting up her bagel or toaster pastry.

Next, I appreciate the size of the slot. I have used this toaster for everything and have had NO issues of something not fitting down into that slot. Furthermore, I haven’t had the toaster jam on me at all…nope, not at all and I contribute that to the size of the slot.

Every member in our family likes their toaster items browned differently. I like a lot of “toasting” and hubby only likes “light toasting”. With the 7-level adjustable browning control, I can set it to everyone’s preference to get the perfect toasting for each individual. It’s also very helpful when you are toasting a lot of different items like bread, bagels, toaster pastries, etc.

Defrost, Reheat, Stop and 7 Function Browning Control

I often make up French toast ahead of time and then freeze them for use throughout the week. I do the same with waffles. Thanks to the defrost function I can defrost them in the toaster and then toast them to perfection! You would of never guessed they were once frozen. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that feature!!!

Finally, cleaning this toaster is quick & easy! There is a crumb tray that slides out from the side (you do not have to turn your toaster upside down like those old models) and the internal glass panel removes for cleaning too. I did say easy folks and I really mean that!

Wow…this is one FANTASTIC toaster!!! Seriously, how the heck did I live without this beauty for so long? I don’t know but I am sure glad that this toaster sits proudly on my kitchen counter now! It’s beautiful, functions like a dream, toasts to perfection and is easy to clean! Love EVERYTHING about it!

I love ice cream.. I think it could be considered my favorite dessert of all! But we all know how unhealthy it can really be. Loaded with fat and cholesterol, it is not the best alternative for a sweet treat on a regular basis. Now 

The Must-Have Baby Food Jar Organizer

Baby Food Jar Organizer by p.r.k. Products

Many parents struggle with the problem of storing and organizing all of those baby food jars and baby food containers. For years, many of us just tossed them into the refrigerator or into a cabinet which always caused a disorganized mess. It was a mess that I was never able to conquer until now!

P.R.K. Products has come up with the perfect organizer to store all of those baby food jars and baby food containers! It will help you organize & store all of those glass jars, square jars and homemade baby food containers with ease!

The baby food jar organizer is made right here in the good old U.S.A. and will organize and hold up to 16 jars of baby food. The units are stackable which means you can purchase as many as you need and stack them up to save space. To keep them clean…place them into the dishwasher! Gotta love that!

There are 4 different rows per unit which allows you to sort the baby food by type (vegetables, fruits, cereals, dinner, etc.) and allows you to easily see how many jars you have and what flavors are left. If you make your own homemade baby food, you can stack them in the freezer too! Totally cool.

The baby food jar organizer comes in three different colors: white, blue and green and retails for $24.95. What a fabulous baby shower gift that every new mom-to-be needs! Personally, I would suggest purchasing two of them when giving as a gift because most moms keep more than 16 jars on hand at any given time. My niece is expecting baby #3 in late December and I am going to give her this baby food jar organizer and I know she will love it!
