I'd been wanting an Orka, those neato silicone oven mitts, but I couldn't see shelling out $20 for one. So imagine my delight to come across a package at Costco containing two Orka mitts plus two Orka trivets/pot holders—all for $25! They are wonderful. You can really reach right into a pot of boiling water to retrieve something or pick up a roast chicken and flip it with your hands! And they go right into the dishwasher! I haven't found a use for the trivets/pot holders yet, but the mitts are way cool.
I am so on my way to Costo tomorrow!

Oooh! We saw those in Bloomingdales on Sunday and thought they looked really freaky!
