The only drinking glass you’ll (probably) ever need

The drinking glasses we’ve loved since 2014

There’s no reason the items you use daily shouldn’t also be beautiful. We’ve long loved these glasses because not only are they durable, but they also feel more refined than most other options.

Their timeless design is part of the reason they have remained a staple on family tables and at French bistros for decades. We think they’re great for entertaining, but they don’t feel so fancy that you feel silly drinking juice from them in your pajamas.

The best mandoline

An easy way to make any meal feel special and intentional? Set the table with candles. We tested 28 dinner candles and found a few we really loved—from simple beeswax tapers to statement pieces.

To anyone who’s ever put away leftovers, this probably sounds familiar: You try to pull just one food storage container lid out of your cabinet and a whole mess comes tumbling down around you.

Senior staff writer Rose Maura Lorre endured this until she decided to gamble about $20 on a lid-sorting gizmo that, it turns out, has increased her day-to-day serenity perhaps more than any other device.
