If you do a lot of cooking with ground beef, this could come in handy. The chopping blade breaks ground meat into pieces in the pan. It has a plastic blade that won't scratch non-stick cookware.

I could have used this last night as I stripped a corn for a salad. It takes the kernals clean off the cob and into your bowl. Plus it has a face. Shouldn't all your gadgets have a face?

As usual a nice looking product from Eva Solo. This time a pizza cutter. There is not much to say about pizza cutters--they cut pizza.

This funny looking pair of scissors is specially designed to cut and process food in a bowl, making it easy to chop veggies and lettuce for a salad. It has an ergonomic handle, and the blades are stainless steel with micro-serrations that allegedly will never require sharpening.

At some point it is actually going to get hot here in the Northeast and I'll want something refreshing, like a popcycle, to cool off. These molds freeze the popcyles individually, so they are easy to remove from the mold. Plus they come in cool shapes and colors like: Rocket Pop Blue, Shooting Star Pop Green, and Groovy Pop Yellow. It includes six molds and a coordinating base.
