Welcome to #WeWant, a weekly selection of the stuff OnMilwaukee.com editors and staffers love.
Hang it: Planter Garden
This will finally be the summer that I have an amazing garden and have all the herbs and veggies a girl could want. To help me get started, this darling hanging planter set will be perfect in my kitchen. The suspended terra cotta pots can hold herbs I would like indoors -- and closer to my kitchen island for snipping. The planter hanger itself doesn't come with the pots -- so you could use basic pots or some fancier ones if you'd like. I like the classic muted look of the plain -- but love that you can easily change them out too! – Carolynn Buser
Clip it: Clip N' Drain
I detest big, metal colanders. They're a waste of space. And while we've owned a few collapsible colanders I haven't found one that I really like yet. I did, though, see these Clip 'N Drain things at The Spice House's location at the Milwaukee Public Market. They look appealing and if they work, I'm in. Anyone know? Maybe I'lll buy one and try it and tell you all later. Available on Amazon too! – Jeff Sherman
Eat it: Element rice cakes
I'm back to counting calories these days. It's something I do periodically to fight my natural urge to nibble on snacks all day long. So, now more than ever I'm looking for snacks that are healthy and low-calorie, but with some sweetness to satisfy my "golosita." Enter Element rice cakes, available in four flavors (the thin cakes are coated on one side with "icing") and with only 80 calories per cake. They're GMO, preservative and gluten free, there's no cholesterol or trans fats and they're made in Italy, so perhaps I'm supporting the rice farmers of Piemonte and Lombardia at the same time. My favorite is the dark chocolate, though the milk chocolate is a close second. Other flavors are strawberries 'n' cream and sweet vanilla orange. Dark chocolate is also available in a corn cake, but I didn't try those. That's ok, the rice ones will keep me happy enough, thank you. – Bobby Tanzilo
Drink it: Shock Top beer
I have never been a beer drinker, something I know is heresy in Milwaukee. But I'm a liquor kind of guy. That's why I was stunned at how much I liked a Shock Top beer I had while watching the Badgers beat Arizona.The book on the beer is that it's brewed with wheat malt, two-row barley, orange, lemon, lime peel, coriander and Cascade and Willamette hops. I have no idea what any of that means but the Belgian White beer is cool and smooth and tastes unlike any beer I've ever had. So refreshing, we may have another beer drinker on our hands. – Dave Begel
Read it: "A Thousand Mornings" by Mary Oliver
April is poetry month, Mary Oliver is one of my favorite poets and I still haven't read her latest collection of new poems. So, I think it's a fine time to reward myself with this book, even though it is criticized for being far too short (80 pages and with a lot of blank pages) and not considered to be her best work. Regardless, I am certain there are some gems hidden in there and I must unearth them. – Molly Snyder
