      I honestly love anything that has to do with Paris and the Eiffel Tower is such a clever design for a bottle opener!

    I love the apron and the cheese board! Maybe it's because I don't live in the South but the host always seems surprised when I bring them a gift. It's so unfortunate that not everyone does this anymore.
