Review of ravioli stamp

I purchased a round ravioli stamp about a month ago from Williams-Sonoma for $7.95 + tax.
It is a traditional style, Aluminum, round stamp, 3 1/8 inch (80 mm) diameter x 4 inches high, with a turned beach wood handle.
Made in Italy by the Eppicotispai Group.


This utensil seals and cuts filled ravioli all in one step. it is super easy to use. simply push down firmly, twist slightly left and right at least once and pull excess dough away. Too easy! When done, it cleans with a damp towel, and stores in a typical utensil drawer.


This is an excellent tool, and I highly recommend it for its flawless function, and simple design. Don't let the price detour you from choosing this product. Eppicotispai "loves pasta" and it shows in their attention to detail and use of quality materials.

Review of Kauai Coffee

We went on a family vacation to the island of Kawai some years ago. It was a typical vacation morning, you wake from your bed and begin getting dressed and make whatever random coffee that the hotel offers. With the first unsuspecting sip I was amazed at how good it tasted. It actually stopped me in my tracks and I exclaimed that this was the best cup of coffee that I ever have had. It may have been the Hawaiian water, the beautiful scenery, of the good night of sleep after a long journey. It could have been any thing that made it the best cup ever, but in the end it was quite simply just the coffee itself.

Kawai Coffee is produced from a single source estate, MADE IN THE USA, and is the largest coffee grower in the Unites States  The plantation focuses on using sustainable practices and GMO free plants to produce true Hawaiian coffee.

I have been on a campaign to share this wonderful coffee with everyone I know. Some were skeptical at first, but all have become huge fans of this brand. In fact it is now a family tradition to give Kawai Estate Reserve as Christmas Presents. That first trip we brought five bags home, thinking that it was the only way to ever taste it again. Much to my joy you can now find it at Stater Brothers Grocery Stores for $7.99 in the 10 ounce bag.

The main land blend is better than any thing you can buy in a store, but there are more and varied blends available on the island. You can order these special roasts by going to www.kauaicoffee.com
