Item: 64 oz Wide Mouth Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Growler
Price: $49.99
Overall Impression: This is a fantastic product for keeping beer and other beverages cold — and hotter foods hot — for hours. Works like a charm.

Love. Love. Love. I love this growler. I love it for keeping my beer carbonated and chilled all the way to the party. I love it for keeping my big batch of soup hot for the potluck. I even love it for keeping my milk cozy at it turns into yogurt. I just love it. Times a million.

Some say butter keepers or crocks are the secret to soft, spreadable butter. Ever since Melissa Clark raved about her marble butter keeper, I've wanted to try one. If, like me, you're ready to leave behind that cold, hard stick of butter forever, one of these 10 butter keepers should do the trick:

You may not think you know Normann Copenhagen, but chances are you'd recognize a few of their classic pieces. (Remember this peeler? Or this tea egg? Or these fun beater whisks?) Fans of modern design also know that you can find Normann Copenhagen pieces at stores like Horne, Huset, and The Modern Shop, but the brand has its own online webshop as well where you can peruse and purchase the full beautiful line.

You know what's great? Bringing home an armful of fruits and vegetables from the market, all bright, fresh, and ready to be tossed into salads, soups, and stir fries. You know what's not so great? Having a busy week and realizing later that the produce is wilting and rotting in your refrigerator. Properly storing fruits and vegetables is key to extending their shelf life, yes, but even that only goes so far. 

So when the editor-in-chief of The Cooking Lab, the culinary research team behind the Modernist Cuisine books, said he'd found a better way to preserve fruits and vegetables, we knew we had to listen. (Hint: it doesn't involve any chlorine, irradiation or peroxide baths, and it's not blanching.)

How do you store your dishes? It's probably most common to keep plates, bowls, and cups in overhead cabinets, but if I had the option, I think I'd much prefer a deep drawer, particularly one that's divided by a few wooden dowels, like you see here. Neat, organized, and generally easier to lift a bunch of plates out rather than get those plates down. What about you? Do you have deep drawers in your kitchen?

As we close out Lunch Week we had to point out these sweet lunch bags that just went up at the Food52 Shop. These waxed canvas bags have a special pocket -- want a closer look? 

This is the first tote to make our list of favorite lunchboxes this week, but we think it's a worthy sell. If you want a modern, minimalist lunch bag that's insulated, packs flat when you're not using it, and is classic enough for both children and adults, then you have to check out the Stöh Lunchbox from Milkdot.

If you're not a fan of plastic and want to avoid it while transporting your lunch, you're in luck: there are plenty of stainless steel lunch containers out there. But our favorite of the bunch has to be this 3-in-1 set from ECOlunchbox. 

The Takenaka Bento Boxes are simple, and that's what we like about them. They come in a bunch of fun colors, and they're not too big — which makes them ideal for packing lighter lunches. More
