You can make the same sized cookie every time with this sturdy metal scoop which makes uniformly sized cookies. The OXO soft grip handles absorb pressure when squeezed to release dough, and the 1-1/2 tablespoon scoop of dough yields a 2-3/4-inch cookie. It's also useful for making small ice cream balls, and is dishwasher-safe to boot.

Dubbed the S5, the Sonos Play 5 All-In-One Wireless Music Player has 5 integrated speakers powered by 5 digital amps for room-filling sound. We think given the control you can do with your iPod or iPhone this makes for a great kitchen radio. You can enjoy unlimited music, wirelessly play iTunes, free Internet radio, Pandora, Napster and more. They've even recently updated the Sonos to use Spotify and others. The simple setup and wireless expandability to play different songs in different rooms (you can sync up multiple Sonos boxes for around the house sound) makes this an amazing product. Sonos requires a high-speed Internet connection and wireless router.

Don't you just want to finish the last part of the game while you make a little dinner, or perhaps watch some re-runs of Lassie? We do and this 7-inch widescreen LCD display with built-in ATSC digital TV tuner for high quality viewing is perfect for doing both. It features under-cabinet mounting for clutter-free kitchen counters, and the flip-down display panel saves counter space. There's even a MP3 Link with stand for portable music playback, and a magnetic remote control for convenient mounting onto fridge. We're not sure if we need yet another cooking timer but there's even one built in.

You can add a touch of lavender to your drinks with this infused sugar set. You add lavender to this dispenser with some granulated sugar and over a few weeks the lavender's subtle, gentle and light flavor will be absorbed, without the strong aroma. Once your sugar has been infused with lavender's delicate flavor you can add it to a host of homemade delights: sorbets, pie fillings, muffins, brownies, cookies, lemonade, hot chocolate, and even cups of tea. Pretty amazing gift idea, and something different for those pure of heart and flavor.

That's right the Kindle Fire is finally shipping, and we think Amazon's answer to the iPad is the touch pad for your kitchen. Why? Well the price and the size makes it take less room and less of your money for a kitchen computer. Also the content and amount of access to it stored in the cloud make it desirable when it falls into a batch of cookie batter to lose all of your purchases. We welcome the new Kindle Fire and think this is the touch tablet for the kitchen we've been waiting for.

It's been about 3 years since our last toaster oven upgrade, and we think it's about time we upgrade our toaster again. The Cuisinart Custom Classic Toaster Oven Broiler has 1800 Watts to toast, bagel, bake and broil with a full size interior holds that can hold an 11 inch pizza and 6 slices of toast.

- Stainless steel front with rubberized easy grip dials and cool touch handle with easy clean nonstick interior and a front removable tray
- Always even shade control monitors the temperature and adjusts timing to consistently toast to the shade selected every time
- Convenient auto side-out rack for hands free loading and easy removal of cooked foods and automatic shutoff safety feature
- Includes: baking pan/drip pan, broiling rack, wire rack, front removable slide-out crumb tray, and a clutter-free cord wrap
