Throughout our kitchen renovation, we’ve purged where needed and invested in what matters.  Fine Cutlery and Kitchen Tools are two of the things we reach for + use most often so we not only wanted them to be functional, but also match the aesthetic of our new space.  When we came across Lamson products, each and every piece checked both of those boxes.  Made in Massachusetts, dating back to 1837, all of their tools are proudly made in the USA and have a lifetime warranty.  You know I’m drawn to every day pieces that feel elevated and Lamson is just that – perfect for making an every day chore feel like an artful way of living.  We were specifically drawn to their ‘Vintage Collection‘ because of the beautiful, handmade walnut handles.  From knives and serving pieces to kitchen tools and BBQ necessities – Lamson has it all.

As we’ve started cooking again in our updated kitchen (sharing the full reveal so soon!), each and every Lamson piece we ordered has made it’s way into our hands.  One of our favorite, go-to recipes for an easy night in?  Homemade pizza and a tossed salad in the backyard.  J is going to share his recipe with you below!
