Slice and dice with Moderna Housewares’ Ozeri OZK1 Elite Chef Ceramic 3-Piece Knife Set, Black.

I remember when my husband bought me my first ceramic knife. It had that white blade that they all came out with. I wasn’t sure what to expect by a ceramic blade, and was quickly awed by how sharp they were. I am still in awe. They really are sharp, and they really do maintain their sharp edge for a long, long time. I absolutely love this set from Ozeri. It is not only gorgeous, but it functions just as great as it looks. The three knives are done with gorgeous black ceramic blades. They look like regular knives. They are really eye catching! In this set you will get one 3” Paring Knife, one 5” Slicing knife, and one 6” Chef’s Knife. Basically a knife to meet all your cooking needs. One thing that I cannot reiterate enough, is that these knives are beyond sharp. Be careful using them. I have sliced myself so many times with ceramic knives. Much, much more so than regular knives. The handles on these knives are great to hold onto. They have what I call, a finger guard on them. This keeps your hand from sliding down the handle on to the blade, if the blade slips. The handles are firm, but coated, so they feel soft and comfortable in hand. I’m actually very happy with the handles. They title these handles, Ergonomic Handles. I would have to agree with that. The ceramic blades are thick. They do not bend side to side from the handle, even if you push on them, to test them. These are not metal, and will not rust, or break down any metal into your food. Ceramic blades are stated to keep their edge about 10 times longer than regular metal blades. The finish on these blades look like metal. It’s pretty amazing. My older son, who loves knives, still looks at these in awe, since the blades are sleek and shiny like metal blades. He always says they are lying about them not being metal, lol. These really are great for slicing, chopping, mincing, and cutting. I can’t say enough positive, and I really have no cons about them. The only con I have is that these highly sharp knives should come with plastic sheaths, or blade guards, as some people call them. Be very careful if you just throw them into your utensil drawer. Also, if you chip these blades, they are not easy to sharpen like regular knife blades. You could use a knife block, or the storage box they come in to store them. The foam they arrive in is really, really thick, and reusable for storage purposes. They also recommend only hand washing these knives, to ensure the blades fine edge. Since I hand wash everything, that is not an issue for me. This set of Ozeri ceramic knives are a great addition to my kitchen.

Double sided, and perfect. – The Checkered Chef’s Cutting Board.

We do a lot of cooking, and mostly from scratch, in our home. With cooking comes a lot of chopping, and cutting. We have several cutting boards in our home. They really are an indispensable product to have. In my home we use them to serve with, do crafts on, cut and chop food on, and more, lol. It is a great multi-use product to have, and that is why we have multiple. This particular from The Checkered Chef on Amazon, is really nice. It has moved up on my go to list for sure. I love the dual sides, and the non-slip edges, a lot! You know you are way too much of an adult, when you get excited about a cutting board, lol. The size is also great. It measures out at 14” long and 10” wide. You can actually prepare food for a family on here. You can cut your roast, chop a ton of veggies or fruit, and serve up a lot of cheese as well. If you are klutzy like me, you will also appreciate its durability. This cutting board is made out of polypropylene. It is thick enough so you won’t have to worry about warping. It does not leave gouges easily with regular chopping and cutting. I love how it’s double sided. One side is smooth and flat, while the other side has a trough around the perimeter, to catch the juices from you produce and meats. That really makes a difference, and so much less mess. My favorite part of this cutting board is the non-slip feet on it. It really does stay put. That really falls into the klutzy category, lol. If there’s a way to send something flying, I can do it. Fortunately, the corners are wrapped in the non-slip material, so it stays put on either side. I hand wash everything, but this baby is dishwasher safe. It’s a rugged, great all around cutting board. I couldn’t find anything negative about it.

These can be used for so much more than grilling. – LoveU.’s Extra Large BBQ Grill Mat – Oven Liner.

I am not new to grill mats. I am using a couple as stove liners as we speak, lol. It’s true though. I love these things. They are so useful, and in other ways besides grilling. This set of 2 from LoveU. on Amazon, meets my high expectations as well. I hate when I really like a product, and then you order a different brand, only to have your heart crushed. Well, not with this brand. They are a great quality and size. Each mat measures in at 20 inches x 13 inches. These mats are slick to the touch and are 0.23mm thick. These mats are made out of a 100% Food Grade Material, and are FDA and LFGB approved. They are non-toxic, and eco-friendly. They will not add any odd odors or flavors to your food at all. They are made out of a used glass fiber cloth and is coated with a 45% PTFE with special technology. This material cleans off so easily. Nothing really sticks to it at all. It has a great temperature range as well. It can go from -60F to a max of 680 °F. You can do candy making and chocolate making on these mats, easily. I love use them for meal prep. The size is larger than a cutting board, and I don’t always need to do a lot of cutting. It’s great to be able to lay all my food out in one area while preparing. Especially since these mats are so easy to clean. Today, I used one of the mats to prep the grilled cheese sandwiches for our soup and sandwich dinner. It was so much easier than stacking bread on multiple plates. I also love that since it is a nonstick mat, I do not have to add any oil or butter to grease it before putting my food down. That stops a lot of waste and calories too. These mats work really well on a grill. You can do fish and veggies on here beautifully. And again, easy clean up. I do love that part, lol. You can grill fruit, and even pizza on these mats too; anything you want. Besides food, you can use these for an arts and crafts surface for your children. These will definitely protect your table from markers, paint, glue, and glitter! And, yet again, these are so easy to clean up. Can you tell I love them, because I do. These are perfect for so much more than grilling. I think calling them Grill Mats really sells them short. This set even arrives with a free hair tie, to keep them bundled for easy storage. I thought that was so clever and perfect. I love everything about this product.
