A Season of Transition
We imagine people visit our site from all over the world—our retail store’s visitors certainly are international—so we do our best to be inclusive, especially when discussing items that have seasonal uses. Yes, we know it's quirky. Anyway, seasons are always changing, and here are some items we’ve added recently that work well year-round, even if your season’s a tad different from our own.
Sigg™ Metro Mug
When the days start getting shorter and cooler, when hot tea is preferred to lemonade, it’s time for the Metro Mug’s winter tour of duty. Its vacuum-insulation is perfect for keeping a hot beverage of choice precisely that, hot, for up to six hours. Available in two sizes—250ml (8.5 fl. oz.) and 380ml (13 fl. oz.), one is compact enough for any bag, the other is large enough for both the commute and lunch. It is made from stainless steel, and has a leak-proof lid. Also, there’s a not-so-secret secret you should know: the Metro Mug is just as adept at keeping liquids cold, so feel free to use it year-round, and not just when leaves change color and the wind re-acquires its foreboding chill.
Silicone Brush
Another item that plays just as well during the winter as summer is the silicone brush. In the summer, you can find it at the grill, brushing barbecue sauces and marinades onto veggies, burgers, and other fare. In the winter, it’s comfortable in the kitchen, basting turkeys and brushing pastries to its hearts content. The red silicone bristles don’t absorb flavor between uses and are heat-safe to over 500° (as hot as an oven can get).
50-year Calendar
With all this talk of the seasons, we would be remiss to not note our 50-year Calendar. Whether planning for a birthday, anniversary, or Cinco de Mayo, this calendar has all the answers to your calendrical questions. Really, it does. New Year’s, 2014? Spin the wheel…a Wednesday. The Ides of March in 2046…a Thursday. Easy, no?
We’ll readily admit that few plan quite that far in advance, but it’s good to look the part of a well-prepared planner, or gift one to the planner in your life. Also, with its weighty heft and foam base, it’s the perfect paperweight for your well-ordered desk.
Thanks for your attention during this seasonal diversion; it means a lot to us.
