I could use something like this. These stainless steel poultry shears are designed to cut through skin and bones without tearing the meat. It also has a notch below the blade to crack bones.

This microwave bacon cooker cooks up to 10 strips of bacon at a time. You simply load the bacon cooker by draping strips of bacon over tent-shaped plastic racks. You can choose between crisp or soft consistency, and the tray collects fat drippings. It even has a cool-touch wrap-around handle, and all the parts are dishwasher-safe.

I'm skeptical of this, but it claims to cook pasta in the microwave in 15 minutes or less. The cooker has water level guides and measuring holes in the lid to determine serving sizes. The lid can also be used as a colander. It can be used with any type of pasta, as well as rice or soy noodles.

We have been using the William Bounds Black Walnut Pepper Mill, and enjoying their pepper corns as well. When picking a pepper mill you have to make sure and get one that isn't a chore to use. The Black Walnut Pepper Mill from William Bounds is very easy on the hand, easy to turn, and very easy to change the grind setting. Combined with some of their pepper corns which are dated for freshness, you really get the perfect combo. Our favorite pepper so far is the Wildcrafted Bali Long Pepper - it's very different and really delicious on pork and other meats.
Adjusting the grind is right at the top of the pepper mill.
What we really like about the Walnut Pepper Mill is that each turn of the pepper mill produces just the right amount of pepper, and the course setting is perfect for salads. Measuring 9 inches tall, the mill is designed for either salt or peppercorns. The American Black Walnut Mill joins several other mills in the Exotic Woods Collection including Rosewood Klios, Teak Mills, Bamboo Mills and Cherry Wood Mills.

I've been craving french fries lately and this cutter quickly divides a potato into fries. It comes with two blades--one for 3/8 inch fries and one for half-inch fries. You can also use the cutter for carrots, cucumbers, and zucchini.

Want to save money on your electric bill? We recommend getting a fridge and freezer thermometer. A simple $7.99 investment can help lower your energy bills by monitoring the temperature in your refrigerator, which consumes more energy than any other appliance in the typical American home according to the U.S. Department of Energy. As energy costs soar, the CDN ProAccurate Heavy Duty Refrigerator/Freezer Thermometer makes it easy to keep your refrigerator at the optimal temperature to reduce energy costs while ensuring food safety.
We were able to gradually adjust the temperature of our refrigerator and freezer to the optimal temperature, and we found the easy to read dial assuring that the temperature was both accurate and safe. Before this we never knew the settings we had the freezer and refrigerator on were even close to the right temperature.
We think for $7.99 you can't go wrong, and you can also use the CDN ProAccurate Heavy Duty Fridge and Freezer Thermometer over and over again. We've left ours in the freezer to ensure things stay at the right temperature moving forward.
