    I have those stainless steel straws! Or at least, what I assume are the same ones. I bought them through amazon.com.

    They’re pretty awesome, I have to say. I wash mine by hand using pipe cleaners (they slide through the grate of my utensil tray in my dishwasher, but I could probably put some metal mesh down there to keep that from happening). I also bought some for friends who recently got married, and they say the straws are by far the best wedding present they received. Only unanimous approval on my end!

    I also have the straws. Love them! I rinse them out after I use them and place them horizontally in my dishwasher.

    It’s wrong of me but I don’t want the egg decapitator, but I really want the box it comes in!

    While I love the eco-friendliness of the reusable straws – beware. I had some acrylic ones and kept whacking my front teeth with them while doing some careless sipping. No chipping, but there was always the danger…..

    I own an egg decapitator:

    it does not double as an egg holder, but it does have a pointy part for pivoting around while cutting, that can also be used to prick an egg (growing up, we used hat pins for that and they were kept on the kitchen curtain, but I use this instead now.)

    I’m gonna out myself here, but I have the (green) steel slurpee straw from the Transformers 2 promotion at 7-11 and while I LOVE it, I clink my teeth on it from time to time. *shudders*
