Misto Gourmet Olive Oil Sprayer
5 recommendations
"I love using atomizers that you can fill with any flavored oil you want. My son bought it for me for mother’s day one year. It’s a little canister with a lid that screws on and off and a spray pump so you can really limit the amount of dressings on your salads. I also use it for cooking in pans. It's great as a substitue for Pam."
Epazote Spice
1 recommendation
"Epazote is one of my favorite spices. It's very prevalent in Mexican cooking and is usually paired with tomatillos and onions but you won’t find it in a traditional supermarket."
Crate and Barrel Table Linens
1 recommendation
"You can bargain hunt and mix and match with whatever you might find at Marshall’s on a particular day, or go to Crate and Barrel when you want a “sure thing.” I like the quality and the range of styles at Crate and Barrel. My tastes vary from romantic and classic to bright and festive."
Williams-Sonoma Alhambra Bowl
1 recommendation
"I don’t necessarily have one favorite type of serving platter, my tastes range from modern and white, like Pillyvuyt, to Mediterranean, like this Alhambra bowl at Williams Sonoma. You should always choose one that is large enough to hold whatever is being presented and still have enough of a rim to show off the platter itself – there should be harmony between the color, shape and size of the ..."
Marquis by Waterford "Vintage" Margarita Pitcher

Nuestra Tierra . Clay Cookware
1 recommendation
"The next best thing to my Grandma’s rice pot would be these Colombian black clay pots. They are very strong as well as unique looking. You can’t put them in the dishwasher but they can go in the microwave and of course can be used on the stove or in the oven, and go straight to the table, if necessary, because they are also attractive. They are suitable for all types of cuisines, and are great fo..."
