The Thing You Didn’t Know You Needed!
Slow Cooker Lid Holder
We love inexpensive tools that solve annoying little problems! Just hang this rust-resistant, stainless-steel lid holder off the side of your slow cooker, then secure it with the accompanying suction cups. Then, when it’s full of hot food, you can set the lid in the rest and the silicone “sink” will catch any drips—way better and less mess than setting it on the table or counter. And when you’re done, you can pop it in the dishwasher. Especially useful for serving at potlucks!Chew on this:
Today, February 19th, is National Chocolate Mint Day. We think mint shouldn’t be limited to just the winter holidays—blend up a Minty Mocha Protein Swappuccino anytime!
