Mother’s Day is just around the corner and if you are looking for the perfect Mother’s Day gift, well…I got a great suggestion for all of you! How about giving mom a brand new set of beautiful looking flatware? I say…Yes! I love it when I receive practical gifts that I can use over and over again!
Today, let me introduce you to the company called KNORK who makes some of the best flatware that I have personally ever used! The flatware that KNORK makes and sells is different than all of the others that you see being sold in various kitchenware stores!
Company Info (from their site): KNORK Flatware, a division of Phantom Enterprises, seeks to enhance the dining experience by integrating a fork with the functionality of a knife built in. The Knork concept modernizes flatware and has produced the flatware of today… and tomorrow.
Special Flatware Features:
* The forks have special broad and curved tines which makes cutting through food a breeze.
* All of their flatware pieces have a finger platform to provide more comfort and less effort while cutting food.
* The handles are smooth and enlarged for balance, stability and control. Both lefties and right-handed people can use these flatware pieces.
* Made out of high-quality forged stainless steel.
* Limited Lifetime Warranty.
I took them out of the box and washed them up. I was immediately impressed with the weight of this flatware…these are not flexible, thin pieces that get bent all out-of-shape! They are weighty and thick….which is exactly the way I like my everyday flatware to be!
When you hold these pieces in your hands, you know you are holding quality flatware. I love their weight, shape, size and of course…that matte satin finish! (yes folks, I don’t like shiny flatware at all). They are comfortable for a child to use, a middle-aged adult and for a senior citizen to use!
I loved the curved Knork (fork) and find that I rarely use a spoon anymore unless I am eating ice cream, pudding, mashed potatoes or other soft foods. The Knork is great for eating all kinds of meat & veggies and I find that it does a wonderful job of cutting up my food thanks to those special curved tines.
Regarding the spoons…oh my…I love them! They are weighty & heavy duty spoons and guess what? I can get frozen ice cream out of my freezer and those spoons do NOT bend up at all! In addition, the spoon is curved nicely so when I am eating soup and pudding, my food stays on the spoon and is NOT falling off all over the place.
When it comes to beautiful everyday flatware, I like it to be just like this set from Knork! I don’t like engravings, fancy etchings and other nonsense! I like them modern looking, weighty and with the matte finish…this is indeed the PERFECT set for me and my family! We love them so much, we want a few more sets! Yay!

Spring has arrived and Summer is just around the corner. For many of us, we will be hitting the road for Spring Break or Summer vacation for a well deserved break from Winter. If you are like me, you need a good commuter travel mug to hold all of your hot beverages…for me, it’s my daily dose of coffee!
When it comes to coffee tumblers, I look for the brand Thermos as I know it’s a name that I can trust! I have owned Thermos brand products for years and let me tell you, they are always made of the best quality materials.
While looking online for a new commuter travel cup, I stumbled across Outdoors “R” Us who sells a wide variety of Thermos brand products. When you shop their online store, you will find coffee containers, coffee mugs, coffee tumblers, kid’s sippy cups, kid’s straw bottles, plastic water bottles, drinking bottles, Thermos stainless steel food jars and more!
The great folks at Outdoors “R” Us sent me their Thermos Insulated 16 oz. Coffee Travel Tumbler to review for all of you. When it comes to tumblers, the 16 oz. is my preferred size. The travel tumbler is available in 3 beautiful colors: stainless steel (silver), Purple and Magenta.
Thermos Tumbler Features:
My Thoughts: I love the Thermos brand of products and it is indeed my preferred brand for commuter mugs. One of the things I like about this one is that it’s slim in it’s design and it fits really nicely in my cup holder in the car. Lately, I have been finding commuter mugs that are way too big (in diameter) to fit within my cup holder and this one is perfect for that!
This insulated tumbler will keep hot beverages warm/hot for up to 4 hours and your cold beverages cold for up to 9 hours. On the outside of the tumbler is a contoured rubber band that ensures that you get a non-slip grip when you pick up your tumbler. It fits really comfortably in your hand and is semi-weighty which speaks to it’s fine workmanship.
The top has a cap that you can unscrew to pour in your beverage of choice. You then screw it back on (easy-to-do) and then there is a button on the cap that you slide back and forth to get your beverage out. I love that when it’s in the closed position, nothing leaks out should I drop the tumbler while in the car. (trust me, I dropped it and nothing spilled out!).
A few days ago my hubby borrowed my new tumbler and I had to fight him to get it back. You see, he loves to drink hot coffee while commuting to work and apparently he has fallen in love with my new tumbler. Guess I will need to get one for him next!
Overall, I LOVE this new Thermos Insulated Commuter Tumbler! I love it’s sleek shape, it’s high-society design, it’s function and more importantly, it does indeed keep my coffee nice and hot for me! Yay!
