If you don't remember everything you need and you don't think about everything you remember, then the Eva Solo Memo Board is a perfect addition to your kitchen.
You can make the memo pad the center of messages and shopping lists for you kitchen. You can place the memo board made on the wall or you can carry it with you - thus avoiding any inconvenient memory lapses. The pencil holder is made out of rubber and perfectly fits your old pencils. The pad used is an ordinary A6 standard pad on a pasteboard back so a trip to Staples will get you a fresh new source of paper for your memo board.

We love hard boiled eggs and we love chrome hard boiled egg slicers. You can make wedges or slices with this egg slicer from Dean & DeLuca. Best of all it can be packed in a signature gift box so you can send the gift of egg slicing around the world. BURP. Okay - let's slice up another egg.

simplehuman was kind enough to send their compact dishrack for review in the Kitchen Contraptions test kitchen. Our current dishrack is the classic Bamboo, flex open, dishrack with little brass nails to hold it together. Over the past few years of owning such a dishrack, we've often wondered what it would be like to have a "real dishrack".

Why didn't we think of this? We often sort our mail in the kitchen and then throw it into a very unsafe pile of things anyone could go through to steal lots of information about us. Royal's practical KS7 Kitchen Shredder is designed for the kitchen, where most families sort their mail, the KS7 handles household rubbish while offering an easy and effective method to dispose of unsolicited mail containing valuable personal or family information.
The KS7 shreds credit cards, CDs and other data to help ensure household privacy.Since most mail is sorted and opened in the kitchen, Royal has designed its new Kitchen Shredder to offer families a convenient alterative to simply discarding this information, attempting to destroy it with scissors or stacking it somewhere in hopes of shredding it at another time. Royal's KS7 Shredder combines the functionality of a generous 10-gallon general household trash receptacle with the practicality of a 5.3 gallon capacity office shredder to make shredding easy, convenient and immediately accessible.
The new KS7 is 27" high, 10" wide, 18" deep (front to rear) and weighs 22 pounds. A 13-gallon plastic bag is recommended for the household trash compartment. Availability is scheduled for November 1, 2005 at Target, Circuit City, and online retailers.

What's better than a hand blown Olive Oil and Vinegar Cruet? Owning one. I have to admit how amazing this cruet looks. Correctly proportioned Bohemian crystal cruets, hand blown one inside the other, two cork stoppers, and filled with the best olive oil and vinegar? Perfection.
If there was only more products that capture the imagination and provide some decent cooking experiences. I love to have things in the kitchen that make me want to cook and this would be one of them. Hey - isn't Christmas coming soon? Anyone?

Imagine being able to open a bottle of wine and then put it into hibernation for long voyages through outer space. Well now you can. The Pek Wine Steward Supremo Model is a wine preservation and temperature management system available for a single bottle of wine that encases your newly opened bottle of wine and then holds the wine flavor in stasis by injecting it with Argon Gas.
The product is automated and extremely with no tedious pumping like the Vacuu Vin, and is designed to enhance a gourmet kitchen setting instead of just being another gadget in your kitchen drawer. The Pek Wine Steward uses easily replaceable gas cartridges of "High Purity" Argon Gas, the same gas mixture used by quality wine makers. Includes (2) two gas cartridges. Fits (1) one 750 ml wine bottle. Some irregularly sized or shaped bottles may not operate correctly so beware!

We had another amazing month of crazy kitchen contraption finds here at Kitchen Contraptions! We found Fireflies in a Jar for Your Kitchen along with things to Prick That Egg when cooking. Zevro Zero Gravity Spice Rack and the new Zevro Stainless Steel Indispensable Dispenser are both worth checking out too!
We continued our efforts to review more kitchen products. Our simplehuman Semi-Round Stainless Steel Trash Can was a hit on the garbage front and Tivoli Model One Kitchen Radio Arrived for Review. We also looked at the Kitchen Robot space and found it a bit lacking.
One of our favorite kitchen contraptions the Bialetti Mukka Express 2-Cup Cappuccino Maker Now at Amazon.com.
And the rest? We think the following are some of the best we found in September 2005!

I must have this. It's like a dream come true. Bread - encased in armor from the movie Excalibur. Why didn't I think of this? Make everything in the kitchen armored? I could use my cutting knife as a sword and probably wear this on my head - maybe even my shoulders??? It not only makes a home for your bread, but it also makes for a terrific conversation piece when everyone congregates to the kitchen and I charge them with my bread armor!

How about a chopper, whisk, and a blender all in one set? The Smart Stick Blender comes equipped with a powerful 200-watt motor which quickly purees soups, blends batters, mixes beverages, and more. The unit's unique blade provides smooth and even blending, while its protective blade guard helps prevent splattering.
We just liked the looks of the hand blender. We also like the fact it can attach itself to the chopper (we suspect that's how it works). It also has a very nice lightweight design and comes with two mixing items - a 16 oz measuring beaker anda 2 cup mixing container.
