Whimsical Kitchen Accessories
It all started with that Nessie Soup Ladle way back when. The internet adored that thing and sure enough, once magically appeared among our gifts that Christmas. Since then it has been joined by the “butter whale“… because who doesn’t want softened butter always at hand inside a ceramic whale?
Since then OTOTO and other companies have cranked out a bunch of painfully adorable kitchen accessories. It truly tests my grumpy soul not to get them all, but here are my favorites.
Spaghetti Monster Colander Strainer
Don’t let his pretty eyes fool you, this spaghetti monster is a straining master. And if you’re planning a spaghetti dish, this noodly master will grant your wish! Whether you want to build an altar to Pastafarianism at the center of the kitchen, require a more interesting colander to wear as a hat, or just want to enjoy some spaghetti-and-meatballs for dinner, this thing should serve as a viable tool for each of those tasks, all while looking so attractive!
