Microwave - ever tried living without one for a few days ? Unbelievable how much a part of life thy have become. Wife and I were one of the first to get a micro around 1980 - neighbors were amazed how fast you could boil a cup of water...

Swiffer Wet Jet, I love it for fast touchups on the floors in between the real scrubbings. Their duster thingie is great too.
Clorox Wipes--most definitely!
I LOVE my George Foreman grill. I have the one for inside and a larger one for outside and just got rid of my gas grill this summer! Grilled fish, steak and veggies year round, how can that be a bad thing?
The Pasta Pot....laugh if you will, but that thing rocks. Makes draining pasta, hardboiled eggs, etc...so easy, and the two pots are perfect size for smaller batches of sauces, risotto and stuff.

My laptop. When I move to a location where wireless is available, I will have it made in the shade.
Kiehl's Blue Astringent. It cleans and eliminates the sting from bug bites. Also, if you get the least little bit of a zit this stuff zaps them overnight.

I'm not too into gadgets but the three I really like are:
electric toothbrush: just gets them cleaner
Palm: keeps me organized
study pen: cuts the transferral time right down. Sometimes you need that second-modality typing time to reinforce what you've read, sometimes you don't.

If so what is it?
What item or product do you endorse? |
A Guidant Model A135 Defibrillator/Pacemaker. A truly remarkable piece of equipment
