I’ve decided in my next “phase” of life, I will get back into cooking. My husband and I used to really enjoy our time together in the kitchen, but 2 kids, homework, sports, and both careers leave little time for more than Trader Joes in a bag! My daughter loves to help out and we often chop up things to add to the “bag”, but no one likes to chop the onion…until now.

Actually, kate said one day: “mom, we should where goggles to chop onions!” I thought it was such a brilliant thought, but obviously someoneelse beat us to the punch. This pink pair of “onion goggles” from Sur la Table are fun to wear and help to block out the “reflex tears.”
