1. An expandable spice rack so you can finally make sense of your spice cupboard that, well, is a bit of an abyss. ALSO, this will help you actually SEE what you already have (and not end up with three jars of coriander because you always forget you have it). Lol, not me speaking from experience or anything... 😅
2. A pair of handheld scrapers that'll restore your cast iron skillets to their former glory, right before your eyes.
3. An Always Pan that is a cult-favorite, do-it-all workhorse. It acts as a fry pan, sauté pan, steamer, skillet, saucier, saucepan, nonstick pan, *and* comes with a wooden spatula and spoon rest. Like, WHAT!?? Also, the colors it comes in are VERY chic.
4. A sleek utensil that might look basic at first glance but actually serves triple duty as a slotted spoon, spatula, turner and a sharp edge you can use to SLICE! I am honestly completely shook.
5. A set of cleaning wipes specifically formulated to be heavy on grime and light on your skin. They're packed with aloe and vitamin E to not completely decimate your hands, but are strong enough to remove grease and even ink stains. Queue "The Best of Both Worlds" by Hannah Montana, please!! 🎵
6. A cute lil' binder so you can create your own version of your grandma's old-school family recipe book. It's giving cottagecore and I am here for it.
7. An anti-fatigue floor mat so your back and feet aren't absolutely gone after prepping some veggies. Also, for anyone who spends wayyyy longer than they'd like doing dishes, put this thing in front of your sink!! Your whole body will thank you later.
8. A 7-in-1 Instant Pot that's great for making restaurant-quality meals in a fraction of the time. From yogurt to soup to pot roast, this thing is straight from the year 3000 if you ask me.
9. A bottle of Bar Keepers Friend so you can FINALLY remove all the hard-water stains coating your stainless steel cookware.
10. A handblown glass oil pourer that, I'm sorry, is nothing short of a work of art. I mean, come ON! Your oil and vinegar deserve nothing less than a colorful vessel like this to live in, amirite?!
11. A Blue Apron subscription kit because who wants to think about meal prepping when you can just have a magical box appear on your doorstep that does all the thinking for you? Exactly. Just follow the easy, step-by-step recipe cards and you'll be eating well in no time.
12. A set of four bamboo utensils to replace those flimsy plastic ones you've been using since college. Plus, nothing screams A-D-U-L-T more than utensils like these. And, yes, you are unfortunately an adult.
13. And a set of six upgraded kitchen fundamentals because you are actually getting really serious about spending more time in the kitchen lately and are looking to do a FULL upgrade across the board.
14. A pack of all-natural bottle cleaning tablets that make cleaning your water bottles and tumblers less of a headache. If you're the person who just "rinses out" their reusable water bottle once a month with, well, more water, your bottle is likely filled with unwanted bacteria and grime.
15. An ice cube tray with a lid because, ummmm, who wants their ice to taste and smell like all the frozen fish in their freezer? Definitely not I.
16. A powerful blender that's equipped with 10 different speeds so you can get your ideal blend consistency every single time. I know you've been wanting one of these internet-famous devices for a while, so this is your sign to make it happen! Your smoothies and soups will never be the same.
17. A set of fridge bins to not only help you keep your fridge in an orderly fashion, but also catch any of the leaks and drips from your groceries that seem to always make their way to the bottom of the fridge.
18. A cold brew maker (a BuzzFeed Shopping favorite!), so all you have to do in the morning is pour it in a glass, add a few ice cubes, and then stir in some (okay, a lot) of your go-to creamer.
19. A magnetic knife and utensil holder that's extra strong and will prevent you from accidentally nicking yourself when you open the silverware drawer that has every utensil imaginable flying around willy-nilly.
20. A cooktop cleaning kit that comes with everything you need to FINALLY get your electric stove top looking presentable again.
21. A digital food thermometer that'll give you an instant reading, because eating raw meat is not exactly the vibe in '23 (or ever).
22. A pack of cleaning tablets because, yes, your dishwasher does need to be cleaned occasionally, despite the fact that its literal job is to wash the things you put inside it.
23. A motion-sensor trash can so you can easily dispose of waste without lifting a finger. It's also designed to hold trash bags in place and prevent them from slipping — which is important!!
24. A roll-up dish-drying rack that I low-key just added to my cart. Talk about a space saver!! My shoebox studio is quaking right now.
25. A lid holder caddy because your willy nilly tupperware situation is not treating you so well. This will bring some order to the chaos, trust me.
26. A two-stage electric knife-sharpener that'll keep your blades from prematurely dulling and hopefully buy you some time before you have to shell out a small fortune for a new set. 🔪
27. A KitchenAid stand mixer to tackle even the toughest of baking recipes. It'll also probably last you a lifetime, thanks to how durable it is. (It's a wedding registry favorite for a reason!)
28. A hanging garbage bag holder so you can easily just swipe away all those miscellaneous pieces of garlic that didn't make it into the pan.
29. A nifty strainer that 1. saves space by omitting the need for a full-on colander and 2. saves your fingers from getting burnt when pouring hot water into said colander. Genius!!
30. An organizer tray so you can wave goodbye to loose forks and spoons rattling around in your kitchen drawer. It'll also save ya some time now that you don't have to go digging through a pile of spatulas and corkscrews, looking for the last clean spoon to finish off that pint of ice cream you've been working at.
