Everyone’s got at least one bottle opener at home, but does everyone have a bottle opener that’s as sleek and gorgeous as the new Leverage Bottle Opener? Answer: No, but you can soon.

Created by Brooklyn-based Wander Workshop, the Leverage Bottle Opener is a reinterpretation of the classic, Buy Now . The company launched (and subsequently successfully funded) their Kickstarter in February 2017.

Proudly made in the USA, the openers are cast in solid brass and sealed to protect the finish and minimize discoloration. You can choose from two different finishes—satin brass or blackened brass. With each opener, you also get drywall plugs and brass mounting screws, so you don’t have to worry about not having the right gear.

What really gets us about these bottle openers is the design. The lines are clean and there is little to no wasted space in the geometric design. They are almost art deco in styling, and it’s easy to imagine Jay Gatsby (the Leo DiCaprio version) having one or four ready to go for his parties.

If you don’t have the space for a wall-mounted bottle opener, Leverage has also created a handheld version. Either way, the openers are designed not to bend the cap, so if you are a collector looking to finish your bar top/beer pong table, this is the opener for you.

The Leverage Key Hook will retail for $35, the Leverage Handheld Bottle Opener will be $50, and the wall-mounted opener will sell for $65. Orders are estimated to be shipped in June 2017. As an added bonus, for you philanthropists out there, a portion of all proceeds are donated to charity partners that fight hunger and provide clean drinking water.

There’s a dangerous, gross new reason to toss your plastic water bottle into the garbage

Your plastic water bottle probably has microplastics

Hand holding water bottle

Like many people who'd prefer to simply sip Champagne with every meal, I certainly don't consume enough water on a daily basis. If I were one to make New Year's resolutions (I'm not), I might've considered making it a goal to drink my recommended dose of water every day in 2024. It's a good thing I didn't, though, because so far, I'd be doing terribly. Unless you count the increasingly mounting recycling bin full of empty wine bottles in my garage. No? Too bad. The good news is, if you're anything like me and just can't seem to meet that daily water quota, we have a new excuse to opt for a mimosa instead.
According to a recent study conducted by Researchers from Columbia University and Rutgers University and published by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, there's a terrifying amount of microplastics in single-use water bottles. Admittedly, we've known for quite a while that any single-use plastics are bad news for the environment, but we had no idea the potential harm they could do to our bodies as well.

The study
The study tested three unidentified brands of bottled water. Concentrations of micro-nano plastics, which were estimated to be 240,000 particles on average per liter of bottled water, were found in each brand. About 90% of these were nano plastics. Though physically smaller than one micrometer in size per bottle, that amount is "orders of magnitude more than the microplastic abundance reported previously in bottled water," the study says.

Your new favorite winter cocktail is red wine…hot chocolate?

Happily survive the rest of winter with this surprisingly rich and indulgent cocktail

Hot chocolate

The holidays are over, and now we settle in for the long, dark, cold days of winter without the jolly sparkle of holiday festivities to get us through. For many, this is a time of reflection, of resolution, of beginning healthy habits and organizing our lives both inwardly and out. But for others (us), it's time to settle in under a warm blanket in a bear-like hibernation that includes baked goods and cocktails. And while we're looking forward to margaritas and fruity daquiries, something about a tropical cocktail doesn't yet feel quite right. We need a winter cocktail. One that warms us to our bones and fills our minds and bodies with happiness and peace. Enter red wine hot chocolate.

We realize that this concoction sounds a bit bizarre at first. But when one pauses and thinks about the flavors, red wine hot chocolate makes perfect sense. After all, is there any better pairing in the culinary world than that of wine and chocolate? Of course not. So why not blend them together for a beautifully rich, perfectly fruity, warm, comforting, indulgent winter cocktail?

This eggnog French toast recipe may be your new holiday breakfast favorite (it’s definitely ours)

Eggnog french toast is so, so good

Eggnog French toast

This time of year, there are endless traditional and festive recipes to enjoy. Whether your family celebrates the holiday with honey-baked ham, a beautiful rib roast, or a gorgeous seafood spread, there are tons of dishes that we associate with the December holidays. And that's even before Christmas cookies and cocktails come into play. Yes, as far as holiday dining is concerned, we've got plenty of options in the way of dinner and treats. But what about the most important meal of the day? Don't our holiday breakfast tables deserve a little holly jolly sprinkle, too? We think so. That's why we love this incredibly delicious eggnog French toast recipe from St. Pierre Bakery.
We've always loved St. Pierre Bakery for its delicious baked goods, from pillowy brioche to delicious waffles and lace-thin crêpes. Their signature orange packages are easy to find at most grocers, including Walmart, so a decadently soft and buttery treat is always nearby. Of course, any brioche you happen to have in your bread box will work perfectly for this recipe, as well.
This indulgent breakfast calls for one of our very favorite holiday ingredients, eggnog liqueur, to give this Saturday morning staple a Christmas-y upgrade, and we are here for it. Topped with perfectly caramelized oranges, a drizzle of homemade butterscotch sauce, and a snowy dusting of powdered sugar, this dish is special enough to become a new Christmas morning tradition.
