Made of BPA-free Tritan material, Tossware cups (and stemless flute, wine, and old fashioned sets) are resistant to scratches and scuffs and sturdy enough to withstand tips, tumbles, and topples. Plus, they’re dishwasher safe, so clean-up is easy when the party ends. Use these cups and even Santa won’t cry over spilled milk.
Whisk Wiper

Licking the whisk may be the kids’ favorite part of holiday baking (or yours—we won’t tell!), but this nifty attachment offers an even better option—leaving more of that yummy goodness for the treats. The Whisk Wiper slides over the beater of your hand mixer and sits at the top while you whip together your icing, batter, whipped cream, anything. (They also sell a version for hand-held whisks.) When you’re done mixing, slide the wiper off the beater to save every last bit and clean your whisk in one swipe. Genius.
Waterproof Dog Blanket
