After so much time at home with the kids this past year, let's just say that my kitchen is not its best self right now. ( Neither are the parents here, but that's another story! ) So I've been gathering tips, tricks, and products for reo…
This past year we all spent a good amount of time and thought into prepping our pantry for an emergency - but now as we head back to school our pantries may not be stocked very well for every day snacks and packing lunches. So we have up…
So you think you're in a pandemic? You are. And as someone who grew up learning how to plan for things like this, the Cool Mom Eats team asked me to put together a helpful guide to keeping the family fed (and possibly entertained) during…
If you ask us, the best part of the holidays is spending time with family and friends. Though we don't quite party the way we used to pre-kids (sigh), it's nice to drop in on those we love, and part of the fun is bearing gifts -- because…

You're wiped out from cooking and the tryptophan has kicked in, but there's a mountain of clean up in the kitchen. So, who does the Thanksgiving dishes? We asked our staff about how it works in their house -- and about how they feel abou…

I admit it: I refer to our family kitchen as my kitchen. And then I wonder why my kids aren't more helpful with the cooking. Hmm. My boys have been cooking alongside me for ages, but now that they are getting older, I want them to be mor…
If you find yourself searching for -- then washing -- a bazillion cups everyday, you need this kitchen organization tip that my awesome fiancé installed in our kitchen. Not only is it convenient, but it turns out to be an incredible time…
I am obsessed with how to store my kitchen knives properly. In fact, I go a little more nuts than I should when helpful guests or my otherwise all-star babysitter have shoved my good knives into a drawer with the butter knives, or ploppe…
I love starting the year off with a kitchen clean out. I'm pretty good about throwing away foods that expire along the way—except for spices. I tend to imagine that they last forever (they don't) and often end up with multiples of certai…
