Need a place to stash your spoon?

Maybe it's because I lived alone for several years, but I've never been one to linger at the table during or after a meal. I'd fix my food, sit down just long enough to devour it, and then immediately leap up, clean my dishes, and go on with my evening. I know I should savor it a little more, but my impatience takes over. (Obviously, dinner with friends is another story).

But if you regularly linger at your table, or spend time chatting with meal companions, this bowl with a spoon rest might be just for you. No more resting your spoon on your bowl or dirtying your tablecloth - if you want to take a break from eating, just prop your spoon in its little seat until you're ready to chow again.

Conveniently, the spoon comes with the bowl, so it fits perfectly, although I can't promise that just any ol' spoon would do the trick. Although for $21, you might just want to just stick your spoon on a place mat and be done with it.
