Our Shopping Cart July 31, 2024. The Strategist Haul: What the Editors Bought in July. By The Editors.

If you follow our monthly feature "Your Shopping Cart," you know we have some eerily good intel on what you all are buying, which led us to think that, as Strategist editors, we could turn the tables and highlight all the things we’ve been buying for ourselves. As you’ll notice, it’s both a blessing and a curse to be a Strategist editor; we’re picky, but sometimes we just have to get on with it. (It’s online-shopping expertise meets IRL needs.) Below, what we bought in July.

Katherine Gillespie, writer: Tsuki Usagi Jirushi Slim Pot in red.

I just spent a dreamlike week in Tokyo, where I purchased among many delightful things this stovetop enamel kettle that’s designed for brewing pour-over coffee. After spotting a lovely selection of them on Kappabashi Kitchen Tools Street (a very strong recommendation if you are visiting the city) and then regretting the non-purchase, I ended up picking one up from Beams on my final day.
