When Top Chef judge Gail Simmons first graduated from college, she felt hopelessly lost. All her friends were going to graduate school, business school, law school . . . but what was she going to do? Fortunately, a family friend gave her some invaluable advice-make a list of what you love to do, and let that be your guide. Gail wrote down four words: Eat. Write. Travel. Cook. Little did she know, those four words would become the basis for a career as a professional eater, cook, food critic, magazine editor, and television star. Today, she's the host of Top Chef: Just Desserts, permanent judge on Top Chef, and Special Projects Director at Food & Wine magazine. She travels all over the world, eats extraordinary food, and meets fascinating people. She's living the dream that so many of us who love to cook and eat can only imagine. But how did she get there? Talking with My Mouth Full follows her unusual and inspiring path to success, step-by-step and bite-by-bite. It takes the reader from her early years, growing up in a household where her mother ran a small cooking school, her father made his own wine, and family vacation destinations included Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East; through her adventures at culinary school in New York City and training as an apprentice in two of New York's most acclaimed kitchens; and on to her time spent assisting Vogue's legendary food critic Jeffrey Steingarten, working for renowned chef Daniel Boulud, and ultimately landing her current jobs at Food & Wine and on Top Chef. The book is a tribute to the incredible meals and mentors she's had along the way, examining the somewhat unconventional but always satisfying journey she has taken in order to create a career that didn't even exist when she first started working toward it. With memorable stories about the greatest (and worst) dishes she's eaten, childhood and behind-the-scenes photos, and recipes from Gail's family and her own kitchen, Talking with My Mouth Full is a true treat.Binding Type: Hardcover

Looks great, doesn't hold much so measure carefully
Color: Gray, Size: Rectangle
I got this organizer for my husband to keep his stuff by the door. While it's a little smaller than I'd hoped, it looks great in the entryway. It's super easy to snap together, but feels like the material could be damaged easily if you're not careful. He is able to store his keys, wallet, and sunglasses in it, and throws hit hat on top. Overall we are really happy with it.

Perfect
Color: Blue, Size: Square
Just what I needed. The size is perfect as I didn’t want anything too large to place my watches and other accessories inside near the corner of my desk. Its size is essentially 7x7, and the design is sleek compared to other organizer holders. I got the color in blue and it looks stunning with the rest of my setup. I’m unsure about other reviewers, but mine came safely and the leather walls are decently thick, so it’s not too flimsy when buttoned together which holds very securely. There are hole spaces at the bottom corners once assembled, so if you have super small items such as beads or really small jewelry, they could potentially fall out, but most of my items are large enough that won’t be of concern. If you have a wire charger near by, the holes could be used to charge your smartphone inside, which has its own practical usage. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on a lookout for a sleek but compact organizer holder, and I personally will consider getting another one in the future for myself for other household belongings.

Noice Lights from Govee!
Item Package Quantity: 2
Worth the investment especially if you have space for them and you have a big TV. I rock with a 75" in my living room. The box has a manual control module with buttons you can press, but this works with Alexa or Google Home via voice command. The Govee app unlocks way more settings and tuning, including what you see here. Super easy to set up the bars and link up everything. Easily worth the money. Brightness can be adjusted, lights are great, and color options (patterns, reactive, rotating, etc.) are fun. Cheers!

Best option for Sim Racing Ambient Lighting
Item Package Quantity: 2
I picked up these Light Bars from Govee specifically for my sim racing setup to be used for ambient lighting, and they’ve exceeded expectations.
The RGBIC technology is the standout feature. Being able to display multiple colors on each bar at the same time makes the lighting effects far more dynamic than standard RGB strips. During races, the lighting reacts smoothly to telemetry data—RPM, flags, rev limiter, and speed shifts all translate into immersive ambient effects that genuinely add to the experience.
Setup was straightforward, but the real highlight was the seamless SimHub integration. Configuration was quick, and the light bars responded immediately once connected. No complicated workarounds, no lag—just clean, real-time feedback. If you're already using SimHub for dashboards or bass shakers, these integrate perfectly into that ecosystem.
Brightness is more than enough for ambient lighting without being distracting, and the diffusion along the 31-inch bars keeps everything looking clean and professional—no visible LED hotspots. The WiFi connectivity has been stable, and the app gives you plenty of customization options outside of racing as well.
For anyone building a sim rig and wanting that extra layer of immersion, these are absolutely worth it.
