You know those chilly days in winter, when all you want is something that makes you feel all warm and cozy? You can only drink so much hot chocolate before you start to feel sick, and it’s not really that satisfying as a meal anyways. So what is the solution?

The Soup And Sandwich Ceramic Tray Duo (Uncommon Goods, $30) has come to your comfort food rescue. With this nifty little marriage between plate and bowl, you can instantly delve into relaxation central. Now you can carry your breakfast/lunch/dinner from the kitchen to the couch in one swift movement with no worries! Both the plate and the bowl are ceramic, so they can be a little on the heavy side, but that weight adds to their durability. The plates and bowls are easily stored because they are stackable, so even if you buy a dozen of them, you don’t have to worry about them taking up too much space in your cabinets.

You aren’t just limited to this soup and sandwich combo either. Think of the bigger picture: salad and sandwich, cereal and toast, chips and dip, etc. Basically, anything you can think of that involves a bowl and a plate, this duo can (and will) deliver. The duo can withstand just about anything you can present it with – oven, microwave, dishwasher…the duo is safe for use in all three. Say you make this delicious soup and sandwich combo, but then you get distracted, or you have to run a quick errand, or the house is on fire…ok, maybe not that last one. But seriously, you can just stick the duo in the oven to keep warm for you, so that your perfect meal doesn’t go to waste. How cool is that?!
