I am a newlywed (1 month on the 27th) and when going to register I thought that I wouldn’t really need much. I mean I have lived in NYC for 13 years so I have acquired lots of stuff. I\u2019m not much of a cook… I guess I was spoiled by my mother who had an amazing dinner almost every night for us, and a new hubby that seems to have more energy than me at the end of the day. I know, a little ironic since I\u2019m the tabletop buyer. And I live in NYC which means space is limited.<\/p>\n

But… THERE IS SO MUCH GREAT STUFF OUT THERE! Get rid of the clutter and ask for new kitchen tools that are well designed, efficient, not difficult to use and functional. Here are some items from the UncommonGoods that every kitchen needs and even make me want to help out more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This apron<\/a> is perfect for people like me that don\u2019t cook enough to remember how long I should steam those carrots and too tired at the end of the day to remember how many pints are in a cup. Apron is much better to put your dirty hands on rather than an expensive smart phone!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Again, I live in NYC which equals NO SPACE. This is the perfect! It folds up neatly into your utensil drawer. I mean what kitchen doesn’t need scale<\/a>… weighing food or other things like a toy fox terrier (mine is only 5 lbs).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I am so appreciative of my lovely new husband. He helps so much. That being said, it completely grosses me out to use the gross older counter sponge when washing the dishes. That is why we have two sponges… Spongeste<\/a>r keeps things straight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Modern and lovely! We have started composting since we have started juicing. So much great compost material! This <\/a>is a sleek way for any home to compost, concealing unsightly mess and odors.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Flavors of America Salt Collection<\/a> takes my taste buds around the US. It is attractive display and the test tubes are reusable. Sold!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Once again, NYC space constraints… 10 bar tools in one<\/a>… \u2019nuff said. (I like my cocktails fancy so the channel\/zester tool is my favorite.)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I adore the Horseshoe Heart Trivet<\/a>. It brings me back to my Texas roots a little, and you never really realize how much you need a trivet until you don\u2019t have one. This one is perfect. The design is cool and has well thought function, the craftsmanship is outstanding, it is handmade in the USA, and it is good luck (horseshoe) and reminds you of love (heart) and\/or your childhood in \u2018fill in the blank\u2019. You can leave it out as a functional d\u00e9cor piece, or it can even moonlight as a spoon rest. So great!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I have a sweet tooth but I try to stay as healthy as possible. I use honey in my tea, on toast, on cereal, with brie… the list goes on. This <\/a>is a really beautiful container to keep honey out and at arms\u2019 reach at all times. It fits perfectly with our d\u00e9cor as well; modern minimalist meets artsy and slightly shabby chic. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>First, polar bears are cute. Second, I just hate when my ice smells like everything else in the freezer, problem solved with the Polar Bear Ice Tray<\/a> by Black & Blum. Third, it is inevitable that I will not be able to get all the ice out of the tray then I turn it upside down to shake out and it falls on the floor. Ice tray fail! BUT problem solved with the Polar Bear Ice Tray.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Wine and Beverage Tote<\/a> holds an ENTIRE BOTTLE of wine. In the summer I love to sit in the park, on the beach, camp, etc. and the Wine and Beverage Tote HOLDS AN ENTIRE BOTTLE OF WINE… \u2019nuff said.<\/p>\n
