When I was a little girl, my sister and I always loved to drink our milk with Crazy Straws. Do you remember them? They were these fun, plastic (reusable) straws with lots of loops and turns! Well, when I found these colorful plastic straws at Target this week, I just had to buy them for my girls.
While these aren't quite as "crazy", they are quite magical - when placed in cold water they change colors! So pretty and fun! They are called Color Change Straws and are actually made to fit the Aladdin To-Go Tumblers, but I see no reason why you can't use them in just a regular old glass.
They come in several colorways, are dishwasher safe, and BPA-free! Just $3.99 for a set of four. The ones on the left are shown after the color change and the ones on the right are from before:
Pretty cool, huh? :-)
Happy Tuesday!

Those are pretty cool...
Have you heard the news? A WalMart in Rockville, to replace some of the shops in the same strip as TGI Fridays!

I have just discovered these straws and love them! As suggested on the packaging, I did go to the website to see about how to care for them, but there was no info there. I then called the company and was told to soak them for 15 minutes in a solution of warm water and baking soda. (Sometimes I use a long-handled Q-tip available from medical supply stores) to clean them thoroughly. Love your blog. After being disappointed at Wal-Mart so many times, I now go directly to Target. Could you believe my local Wal-Mart had no tea pots and the employee in the department proceeded to tell me that no one in the US drinks tea anymore! Target had 7 stove top ones and 4 electric ones! BRAVO.
