The Rocky Balboa Bath Robe is a bit of fun. However, from a personal perspective it’s good to finally locate a bath robe that has a decent hood. Is it just me who can’t find a hooded bath robe?
You might even get a chuckle when you present this as a father’s day present! The Italian Stallion returns…..
Personally, I think it would make the perfect wedding present!

I had never heard of Le Creuset until my wife disdainfully pointed out that they were simply the best supplier of kitchenware there is. I should have known of course!
I have to say that since playing with some of their products, I have been illuminated. Their sturdy, rugged quality is really quite refreshing in an age where things tend to look and feel like their meant to last 2 seconds of moderate use!
Anyway, with all this in mind, I heard that Le Creuset are now pioneering high end quality stainless steel products.
Described as:
“Super sleek range of 3-ply stainless steel cookware benefits from the latest advances in stainless steel with the use of 3-ply technology; an aluminium core sandwiched between two layers of premium stainless steel, which promotes an even cooking temperature throughout and helps produce the best possible cooking results every time.”

I recently had a BBQ with several bottles of wine left open and half finished. Problem. Do I drink the lot before they oxidate and taste rubbish or do I chuck them?

So how do you use it?

With twist top bottles set to overtake cork in the future, you have to wonder how long the humble corkscrew has left. Afterall, how many “corked” screw tops have you encountered?
Anyway, for those who still hanker for a handy compact corkscew this one from Screwpull is kind of funky.
Released earlier this year by Screwpull - this Compact Corkscew might be a nice stocking filler for the traditional wine enthusiast come Christmas time.
It incorporates self pull, foil cutter blade and bottle cap opener - nothing new there really, but handy to have them in a compact form.

Teal is the hot new colour of the catwalks - “So why not use it in Kitchenware” thought Le Creuset.
It’s a little too loud for my tastes, but if you want high end kitchen products in a colour that will burn your retinas, then this could be for you!
Le Cresuset say:
“With interiors stylists and fashion designers dictating Teal as the big news for 2008 and beyond, why not update your kitchen wardrobe with a piece of Le Creuset Teal. Available in a variety of shapes in Cast Iron, Stoneware, and Silicone, the Le Creuset Teal Collection has a piece for everyone.”
The Le Creuset Teal Collection includes:
