No more tears in the kitchen

My mother is a very sentimental woman. She’s always crying about something. Whether it’s a birthday, her grandkids growing like weeds, a sappy greeting card or if she’s chopping up an onion to put in a meatloaf…watch out, because here come the waterworks. When I saw these Onion Goggles from King Arthur Flour, I figured I could at least get her to stop crying in the kitchen.
Music to Swimmer’s ears

I love to swim, but I’m no Olympic phenom like Michael Phelps. Maybe I’ll be inspired in the pool while doing laps if I listen to the Olympic theme song on my Finis Waterproof Swim MP3 Surf Player. The SwiMP3 Surf waterproof MP3 Player is a swimming music lover’s dream come true.
Warm hands, warm heart

My hands are always cold, especially in my office where it’s usually freezing. I’m hesitant to bring a muff to work (it would most likely make typing difficult) so I’m thinking of getting this Re-usable Hand Warmer from Proswing.com.
Telling night time
You’ve heard of sundials? Check out this stardial. I bought this Night Stardial from WStar Designs so my daughter and I could tell the time by the position of the stars. By stars this thing really works! And it’s only $29.95!
Take a picture, it’ll last longer

Everyone loves showing off their digital pics. Whether your just snapped a photo of your new bouncing baby boy, your trip to Mardi Gras, or the 30 pound bass you caught, this Digital Photo Keychain from Paperdirect.com is a great way to show off those cool pics of the day.
Sundialing it in

I’m a sucker for anything historic or antique. Throw in a super cool function, and I want it even more. Check out this 18th Century Sundial and Vintage Compass from Museum Store Company.com.
Smoothie Queen

I drink a lot of health drinks and Smoothie King is cleaning me out. I’d love to make my own fresh, delicious smoothie concoctions at home, but who has the time? I think this Hamilton Beach Drink Mixer from Parker’s Pantry might help.
Beach comber

I live on the beach, and this summer I’m cashing in on the beach with a Metal Detector Hunter from White’s Electronics. It looks like a walkie talkie, so no one will be any wiser.
Lights, camera, waterproof action

I can be a daredevil when I want to be. If I want to Youtube all of my death defying stunts, I’m gonna need this full-function, hands-free, digital recording Digital Waterproof Camera like this one from Newegg.com.
Drinks to go
I love my weekly get togethers with the girls. You’d better believe I’m bringing this portable Cordless Blender from After5Catalog.com with me to our next Mexican Fiesta.
Under Pressure
I miss the days when doctors used to make housecalls. Especially the cute ones they’ve got on ER and House. Need to check your blood pressure stat?! This LifeSource Blood Pressure Monitor from QuickMedical.com is the perfect addition to your first aid kit.
Camp out with the stars
I’m going camping soon. Ahh the stars, the fresh air, the baked beans…the boredom that’s gonna set in once the last s’more is gone. Along with my sleeping bag and tent, I’m packing this Ultra-Compact Portable AC/DC DVD Player from CampingWorld.com.
