Pen Cap Cutlery from “Dine Ink”

81MC4sy7MxL._SL1500_

 

Clever pun (Dine Ink) or clever idea or both? Sitting at your desk with a pudding cup and no spoon or a Cinnabon without a fork and knife is a terrible thought.

We looked at portable cutlery sets before but this one is the smallest and least expensive. And it is ever so clever using the pens you have at hand.

This is a student stocking stuffer if I’ve ever seen one. Especially if they are in culinary school.

Gold Cutlery? Why not. “Rocco” by Herdmar.

71N3UwyPJ9L._SL1500_Apple’s recent success with the golden Iphone has brought attenti0n to people’s love of all things that glitter. But gold cutlery? Sure, why not. “Rocco” by Herdmar is actually 18/10 stainless steel with a matte gold finish. It’s dishwasher safe and won’t need polishing. But you will polish it, you know you’ll polish it. It’s gold! It has to be at it’s shiniest!

Monbento Nomad cutlery set – for travelling and at work

61XSeHzhsvL._SL1500_Carrying your own cutlery surprises people. Especially at the office where it gets a strange look and then a light goes on over their head. It is actually a good idea is what they realize. There is the benefit of hygiene but even more important is that you have the exact implement you need for what you need it for.  These look pretty good and the case with lid would be pretty handy.

No polish cutlery – Service for 4 by Faberware Cayenne Satin

81qDUJm5SgL._SL1500_

A nice simple product for the college student moving into their first tiny little apartment with a tiny little kitchen. It’s a simple setting for four, nothing fancy and forces them to stay on top of washing the dishes. Speaking of which, the satin polish means no polishing required. They call it brushed or satin, all these descriptions get confusing. It short, it’s not shiny shine. And a 25 year limited warranty is nice considering the practical price.

PS – To the student that receives this as a gift, the salad fork is for eating salad. So eat your greens!
