Just so you know -- you’re going to want to throw out all your old kitchen knives and use the Zasshu Knife as your only go-to knife for everything!

The Zasshu Knife is a hybrid combination with a cutting edge like a mezzaluna or ulu knife, chopping power of a cleaver and versatility of a chef's knife - an all-in-one precise hybrid cutting instrument. The scalloped, non-stick blade stays super sharp and retains its edge. The precision-balanced Zasshu Knife is incredibly easy and comfortable to handle because of the rubber insert grip that prevents slipping. Molded out of an 11 3/4" piece of stainless steel, its solid, one-piece construction withstands rust and corrosion, and is completely dishwasher safe.

You will julienne vegetables quickly and easily with the rounded edge, rocking back and forth for an exact, clean cut. A special curve fits your thumb, giving you more control with the rocking motion. The broad blade allows you to scoop up chopped foods from the cutting board and carry them straight to the pan. Clean-slicing through vegetables, fruits, meats and cheese so smoothly that it's a pleasure to use, the Zasshu is the one good knife that you and your kitchen need. Remember that you were warned!

Love your sparkling water?  Hate lugging home those plastic bottles?  And, then there is that whole recycling thing with all those empties! Not to mention the expense of buying sparkling water at the store. So, how about some “homemade” sparkling water…a never-ending supply and you don’t have to worry about recycling all those plastic bottles or draining the electric grid in your home state?  

Sodastream Fountain Jet Soda Maker Starter Kit is just the ticket. The sleek little unit turns tap water into fresh sparkling water/soda in just seconds. This workhorse sits right on your kitchen counter and produces as much sparkling water as you and your guests care to consume. After the initial purchase (about $99 for this kit), your only expense is the periodic online purchase of the CO2 canisters. No electricity. No batteries. No empty bottles/cans to recycle. No lugging and storing store-bought sparkling water/soda. And best of all, no guilt!

There are flavorings available, if you are so inclined. Being sparkling water purists (and a wee-bit of sparkling water snobs), we wonder why anyone would ruin a perfectly delicious glass of “sparkly” with an artificial flavor...

Nothing sucks the fun out of a road trip faster than an expensive speeding ticket (not to mention the pain of having to go to court and traffic school)! The more you drive, the more important an effective radar detector is to your well-being and happiness, and the most critical quality of any radar detector is accuracy. That’s where the Escort Passport 8500 X50 outshines all others, at any price. Talk about easy -- right out of the package it's ready to go. Expressway driving is also easy with the 8500 X50. You’re alerted in plenty of time to slow down, and the device stays quiet when it needs to, with almost zero false readings.

The Escort Passport 8500 X50 is number one in the radar market (see RadarTest.com test results), and the cost is about that of two speeding tickets. Cheaper radar is available, but even if it were double the cost, the 8500 X50 would be a bargain. We recommend you not waste your hard earned bucks on cheaper units, as they will never catch the Escort Passport 8500 X50!

Dual Drill Max would simply be a drill with two head drivers – if it weren’t for the many extraordinary features that make it the indispensable star of your toolbox! The two heads are easily movable and switchable and allow you to have two drill options at your disposal at all times. One smooth move, and you drill a hole, flip the head, and use the second head to set the screw. Never waste time changing bits in the middle of a job, and you’ll no longer fumble with two drills in your hands at the same time -- all you do is grip and flip!

Dual Drill Max has twice the muscle and speed of the original, two gears (high and low), and it’s overly qualified to take on any household job. Horizontal and vertical levels are built in, so holes and screws are placed perfectly. And, with the 20 torque settings and variable speed trigger control, you can give the job all the juice that’s needed.

Dual Drill is cordless with a long life battery – it’s portable and ergonomic. Plus, you’ll never again hold screws in your pockets, hands or (shudder!) mouth, as the drill hangs on to these for you. Tuck Dual Drill and its Smart Charger into the heavy duty hard molded case -- you and the star are ready for business!

So whether you are the Honey-Do'er or the Honey-Who-Needs-It-Done, make sure you have the Dual Drill in your tool box.

Wondering how to deal with plastics paranoia and become eco-friendly in the process? At It’s Good Stuff, we are also working hard to reduce our “carbon footprint”…nothing drastic, but we are trying to raise our awareness and improve our environmental behaviors. Additionally, who is comfortable anymore using plastics for consumables? We aren’t! That's why LunchBots caught our collective attention. 

During any given school year, our staff estimates loss or destruction (rowdy grade-schoolers!) of approximately 35 plastic containers while trying to feed ourselves and our school-aged children nutritious (and inexpensive) lunches. LunchBots are stainless steel lunch and snack containers that are healthier than plastic and better for the environment. Both the container and the lid are made from the highest quality food grade stainless steel. They are top rack dishwasher safe with lids designed to fit tightly, but not intended to be watertight. The LunchBots Duo measures 6-1/4-inches by 4-1/2-inches by 1-3/4-inches and features a handy divider for packing snacks like crackers and cheese, fruit and nuts, and more.

We think LunchBots are perfect for our first steps as “eco-warriors.”

Next time your inner do-it-yourself-er takes control and convinces you that you can fix anything, be sure you have the Tool Band-it handy. The Tool Band-it is a nifty armband that allows you to use both hands on your project while keeping your tools close and easy to reach. The patented design gives this lightweight magnetic band the ability to securely hold your tools, nails and any other parts and pieces you might need. So say goodbye to climbing a ladder with nails in your mouth, screws in your pocket and hammer tucked under your arm. Simply attach what you will need for the job to the Tool Band-it and away you go. And if you are thinking there is no way it can hold all of that - think again. By using neo-magnetic technology, the Tool Band-it can hold wrenches, pliers and a heavy hammer (yep - the skeptics in our office tried it and indeed it does!) and only releases its grip when you are ready for the tool.

So go ahead and bring on the home improvement projects...you will be ready with the Tool Band-it. It's like having an extra set of hands!
