										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The other day a customer enquired about <strong><span style="color: #800080;">FinchBerry</span></strong> soap and wanted to know if we carried it.  Well we <em>DO</em> carry it, so the customer was happy, but it started <em>ME</em> on a quest to learn more about this very intriguing line of soaps.</p>
<p>I was immediately enthralled with the unique appearance of <strong><span style="color: #800080;">FinchBerry</span></strong> soaps, but their beauty is not skin deep <div class="fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-1 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling" style="--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-overflow:visible;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;" ><div class="fusion-builder-row fusion-row"><div class="fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-0 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height" style="--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;"><div class="fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy">[no pun intended for its intent is to clean and soften the skin.]  I’ve since read up about them and I’ve also used a bar of<strong><span style="color: #800080;">  FinchBerry</span></strong> so I’m quite delighted by the quality and properties of a really well-crafted soap.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>But seriously before you read on about <strong><span style="color: #800080;">FinchBerry</span></strong> soaps, just look at these photos!  Are they not plain gorgeous?</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week as I was walking through the store, I noticed an intriguing display &#8211; a tray of colorful gadgets called the <i><span style="color: #ff0000">DISPOSAL GENIE</span><b>.</b></i></p>
<p>Having <i>just the previous evening</i> damaged a good spoon in my disposal, my meeting  with <span style="color: #ff0000">THE GENIE</span> was more than pure chance.  After reading the sign, I bought one and took it right to its new home in my kitchen sink.</p>
<p>I have recently had a run of butter spreaders, teaspoons and salad forks fall unnoticed down the tube, and upon cranking the disposal there was that disconcerting sound of something being ground that shouldn’t be ground!  A disheartening retrieval of the damaged items revealed ugly, pitted cutlery, and the resultant mix of anger and disappointment.</p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/silverware-meets-2-e1384814450905.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5889" alt="silverware meets 2" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/silverware-meets-2-e1384814450905.jpg" width="1000" height="750" /></a></p>
<p>I’ve been using the <span style="color: #ff0000">DISPOSAL GENIE</span> for a week now, and it’s great!  It sits perfectly in the aperture of the disposal, it allows water to freely flow down, and it keeps extraneous items like silverware, avocado pits and celery stalks from sneaking into the disposal.</p>
<p>My daughter came over this weekend, and upon seeing the bright turquoise plug in the sink asked : <i>“What is this?”</i>  I explained to her and she enthusiastically announced: <i>“I want one in my stocking!”</i></p>
<p><i><span style="color: #ff0000">A GENIE</span> for a s</i>tocking stuffer &#8211;<em> now there’s an idea for this time of year!</em></p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/sink-view-with-text-e1384814421390.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5886" alt="sink view with text" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/sink-view-with-text-e1384814421390.jpg" width="1000" height="809" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 align="center"><span style="color: #ff0000">THE DISPOSAL GENIE</span></h1>
<ul>
<li>Not a stopper – it allows food and liquids through, limiting other items from entering</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Fits the kitchen sink garbage disposal opening</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Microban antimicrobial technology is built in so you don’t get that slimy, gooky buildup that grows on the strainer-stopper</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Made of tough, durable, dishwasher-safe plastic</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Has a scraper for debris on plates and for safely stuffing food down the disposal, yet it doesn’t interfere with running the disposal which works while the Genie is in place</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Protects the disposal from damage caused by unwanted items being churned and you no longer have to put your hand down for retrieval <div class="fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-2 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling" style="--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-overflow:visible;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;" ><div class="fusion-builder-row fusion-row"><div class="fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-1 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height" style="--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;"><div class="fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy">[don’t you hate sticking your hand in the disposal even if it is turned off?]</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Saves money because you don&#8217;t have to pay to replace damaged silverware, OR pay a plumber to fix your broken disposal</li>
</ul>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently our family was welcoming a member home for a stateside visit.  So that a handful of friends could see her, my daughter and I hosted a small <i>Wine and Cheese Party</i>.</p>
<p>I had the idea to use an unconventional “tablecloth” so  I set out to find an inexpensive roll of paper.</p>
<p>I looked in a few party stores, but what I needed was right here before my eyes at Blackhawk Hardware ~ <strong><span style="color: #808000;">Contractor’s brown paper</span><span style="color: #808000;">!</span></strong>  It comes by the roll, is 36” wide and a gargantuan length of 144”.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">It’s a lot of paper for the price!</span></p>
<p>To set up, we put the pads on the table, and then proceeded to wrap the dining room table in 2 long sheets of the paper.  We used painter’s tape to secure it under the table.  The table prepped, we were ready for the fun of bringing out the glasses, plates, fruits, cheeses and wines.  My daughter used a Sharpie and her lovely scroll-y handwriting to write on the brown paper.  We used the kitchen table for dessert offerings, and wrapped it in brown paper as well.</p>
<p>We were heartily complimented on the “presentation”.  A really good time was had by all, and our family member felt adequately welcomed.  The party over, clean up ensued.  Cleaning up the tablecloth was a breeze!</p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-1-e1372945697109.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5602" alt="table 1" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-1-e1372945697109.jpg" width="1000" height="747" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em><span style="color: #808000;">A Sharpie was used to write the names of the cheeses and wines right on the brown paper</span></em></strong></p>
<p> <a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-2a.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5621" alt="table 2a" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-2a.jpg" width="1000" height="722" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><span style="color: #808000;"> We set up &#8220;groupings&#8221; of wine glasses with the various wines. </span></strong></em><em><strong><span style="color: #808000;">White wines were set in a large bowl of ice.</span></strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-3a.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5624" alt="table 3a" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-3a.jpg" width="747" height="1000" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><em><span style="color: #808000;"> The pennant centerpiece was secured into two used wine bottles filled with water for weight, with paper clips and twine </span></em></strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-5a.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-5632" alt="table 5a" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/table-5a.jpg" width="1000" height="747" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #808000;"><em><strong> Dessert offerings on the kitchen table, also wrapped in brown paper! </strong></em></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #808000;"><em><strong>Little flags in wine bottles marked the desserts and the non-alcoholic beverages</strong></em></span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We sell numerous brands and styles of Dish Drying Mats. I’ve passed by them many times and wondered about buying one to try.  Two weeks ago, I decided it was high time to bite the bullet so I took one home to see for myself why this is such a popular item.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New on the shelves of our Housewares Department, is a line of pretty amazing, extremely colorful kitchen measuring spoons and cups, bowls and KitchenAid mixer utensils.  You guessed right – it’s POURfect®!</p>
<p>This line is ergonomic, efficient and <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">MADE IN THE USA</span></strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/spoons_yellow-pepper.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5498 alignright" alt="spoons_yellow-pepper" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/spoons_yellow-pepper.jpg" width="284" height="415" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>THE SPOONS</strong></p>
<p>The set comes on a removable ring that holds 12 calibrated spoons plus a leveler. The spoons are graduated from 1/64 <div class="fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-5 hundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling" style="--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-overflow:visible;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;" ><div class="fusion-builder-row fusion-row"><div class="fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height" style="--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-margin-bottom:0px;"><div class="fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy">[a drop], 1/32 [a smidgen], 1/16 [a pinch] and 1/8 [a dash]  all the way up to 2 tablespoons.</p>
<p>Some other special features are:</p>
<p>Bold text in English, Metric and Braille</p>
<p>Comfort grip with thumb depression</p>
<p>The polished bowl readily releases ingredients</p>
<p>BPA free, stain resistant, dishwasher and microwave safe.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>THE CUPS</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><b><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/cups_yellow-pepper1.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-5501" alt="cups_yellow-pepper" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/cups_yellow-pepper1.jpg" width="284" height="372" /></a> </b>The POURfect® measuring cup set has the largest range of sizes available ~ they come with 9 cups that start nesting at 1/8 cup and end at 2 cups [with 1/3, 2/3 and 1 1/2 cups along the way!]
<p>Other features are:</p>
<p>Calibrated to be accurate</p>
<p>Measurements are large easy-to-read in English-Metric-Braille.</p>
<p>Comfort grip with thumb depression.</p>
<p>Rubber no-slip rings on the bases</p>
<p>Bowls polished to easily release  the ingredients</p>
<p>Flat edge spouts that assure no drips</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>THE BOWLS</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bowl_green-apple_f.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-5502 aligncenter" alt="apple green bowl set" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/bowl_green-apple_f.jpg" width="550" height="471" /></a></p>
<p>2 different nesting bowl sets are available in 1-2-4 and 6-8-12 cup sizes.  They are made of stain resistant polypropylene and sport some great features like:</p>
<p>A grip that rests comfortably over your index finger, using your palm and thumb instead of grasping with your fingers</p>
<p>A ledge for cracking eggs, yet keeping the egg contents over the inside of the bowl</p>
<p>English and Metric measuring guides inside the bowl [where you need them]
<p>&#8220;Wings&#8221; that fold the ingredients back into the bowl, eliminating spills and making them great for children to use</p>
<p>No-slip, rubber rings to ensure stability when mixing [and again, making them great for kids to use]
<p>A dripless spout, dishwasher and microwave safe</p>
<p><a href="http://pourfectbowl.com/images/chart.jpg"> </a></p>
<p><strong>THE WHISK-A-BOWL</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/whisk.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5507" alt="whisk" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/whisk-300x254.jpg" width="300" height="254" /></a></p>
<p>The whisking performance of KitchenAid mixers can be improved by this revolutionary and efficient new whisk design &#8211; the <em>WHISK-A-BOWL.</em>  The spiral design cuts the ingredients up, down and across, pulling in air to rapidly create a greater volume.  It completes the task in as little as 1/3 of the time.</p>
<p>Use the <em>WHISK-A-BOWL</em> for egg whites, meringues, whipping cream and light icings.</p>
<p>Once you achieve stiff peaks with the <em>WHISK-A-BOWL, </em>they remain stable for up to 5 times longer than using a traditional whisk.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Note: Each <em>WHISK-A-BOWL</em> is specific to each size KitchenAid stand mixer. It is necessary to match the <em>WHISK-A-BOWL</em> to the size of your KitchenAid stand mixer.</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>THE SCRAPE-A-BOWL</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/scrape_green-apple_f.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-5509" alt="scrape_green-apple_f" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/scrape_green-apple_f-294x300.jpg" width="294" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>The<em> SCRAPE-A-BOWL</em> is a flat beater designed for the KitchenAid stand mixer.  It continually and completely scrapes the sides of the mixing bowl as it mixes the ingredients.</p>
<p>Angled crossbars fold in ingredients, rather than stirring.  This results in thorough mixing and cuts mixing time by up to 50%.</p>
<p>The <em>SCRAPE-A-BOWL </em>is useful for batters, quick-bread, biscuit and cookie doughs, pastry-making, mashed potatoes, as well as for buttercream frosting and fudge</p>
<p>The <em>SCRAPE-A-BOWL </em>beater is efficient so there is no more continual interrupting, raising-up and scraping.</p>
<p>The improved beater design mixes in half the time</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Note: Each <em>SCRAPE-A-BOWL</em> is specific to each size  KitchenAid stand mixer. It is necessary to match the Scrape-A-Bowl to the size of your  KitchenAid stand mixer.</p>

<p>If you haven’t given it much thought lately, the RED SOLO CUP has become the quintessential American party cup, picnic cup, just plain everyday-drink cup.  It’s been around for a very long time; Solo introduced their signature red cup in the 70’s.  It won’t soon go away.</p>
<p><a href="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Trudeau.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-full wp-image-5457" alt="Trudeau" src="http://blackhawkhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Trudeau.jpg" width="204" height="300" /></a></p>
