Jane happily skrubbing!
A very lovely friend from Germany sent us the most fantastic present the other day, the like of which we have never seen before on Welsh shores! Introducing Skrub’a The Scrubbingglove – a clever Danish invention in a pretty orange carrot design!
These wonder-gloves could not have come at more perfect timing (another wonderful synchronicity, thanks Nicole). You probably know that we are now lucky enough to be loving the weekly fresh local and organic veggie box grown by lovely Pippa and John down the road…. Such delicious, fresh and DIRTY veggies! Up until now the lowly washing up brush has been doing all the hard scrubbing work. But we find that still leaves little bits of dirt on the veggies, especially in the nobbles and bumps.

It was with delight and happy intrepidation that we donned the gloves for the first time, dunked the root veg and began skrub-ing them with our gloved hands. The gloves (very much like those exfoliating shower-mitts) were utterly perfect at getting into the grooves and pits of the most twisty of carrot.
It was a quick and unusually satisfying job, and at the end of it we had smiley faces and very clean beetroots. Not only that, but 50% of the vitamins in veggies are in the peel! So Skrub’a Gloves thank you very much, you are our new favourite kitchen implement!

I need these! Do I have to go to Denmark to get them? Well, ok! 🙂
Cheers Emmy, Denmark is a long way from Seattle for sure! Im sure you can get something like that on your side of the pond. Great to hear from you!!!! Happy days, lee and janex
We hear Copenhagen is pleasant this time of year!
We have a brown pair (marked potato) that were purchased in North America. Of course, where in North America alludes me completely just now. When I travel I always check out kitchen shops, so you just have to keep your eyes open to find them. Much easier once you know you are looking for them of course.
Great to hear that the good word of scrubber gloves is spreading around the world. They are genius for sure! We will definitely be keeping our eyes open for more, christmas is coming and all. Happy days, lee and janex
Where can we get these in the states? Love ’em!
Lovely things :).
Yeah! If you’re going to have things, best to make them lovely!
Lovely AND bright. You certainly won’t overlook them when you next need them no matter where you store them 😉
