A lovely mini-funnel, made for pouring Dad's special medicine into a hip flask, but just dandy for filling salt and pepper shakers or anything else with a little yap. Stainless steel with a 1-3/8" ID intake mouth and a 5/16" ID outlet. 1-7/8" tall OA.

You knead this. Actually it kneads you. The Mynt Cordless Shiatsu Massager is heated for extra self-indulgence. Set the controls, drape it over your neck and shoulders and pull/relax it to control the depth of the massage and meet the demands of your unmet kneads. (OK, we’ll stop that.) Has (8) modes with adjustable heat, rotation and speed and runs for approx 1-1/2 hours on a single charge, by which time you’ll be asleep anyway. Some light home-office experimenting confirms that it works well on arms, legs and especially lower backs, but the boss wouldn’t let us try it on feet. Pre-Priced $79.99.

The smart cutters and choppers these days are using ceramic knives because they stay so sharp for so long, and who remembers to have their knives sharpened? Ours measure 7" long over all, with a red, green, or deep aqua handle, a 3" blade and a sheath. Don't go into the kitchen without one. Slice, dice, chop and mince, and forget about sharpening. Like you always do.

Just like the classic Yankee drill, but for the kitchen. Has that “as seen on the television” kinda feel. You push the handle of this 10” long spring-loaded whisk and it spins clockwise on the push, and reverses when you let up on it. The 10-tine stainless steel head is 2-1/8” dia at the bottom x 2-1/8” long, with a little center pin to keep the tines just off the bottom of the bowl or jar or whatever.

These silicone hot pads double as trivets or oven mitts. Measure 7-1/8" dia x 3/16" thick with 1/4" honeycomb indentations to further dissipate heat, plus a 3/8” hole near the edge so you can hang them up. We’ll pick one in red, blue, green or orange, and you can redecorate your kitchen to match. They also double as the world’s safest frizbees.

Trouble keeping your geologic eras straight? We feel your Paleozoic pain. This colorful 12-oz ceramic mug has a graphic timeline wrapped around it illustrating the Pre-Cambrian era up through Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic periods. And if you’re a good geology student, and finish all your coffee, you’ll see an impression of a trilobite fossil in the bottom of the cup. Microwave and dishwasher safe.

Four fine funnels, a fantastic fare. Sturdy plastic, the biggest is 4-1/8" dia at the mouth, with a 1/2" dia spout, the smallest has a 1-7/8" dia mouth, 1/4" spout. The other (2) are in between. Frankly, it's freaky fun flowing fluids from four funnels!

Our hand-held knife and scissors sharpener has a pair of tungsten carbide heads pre-set at the correct angle for keeping an edge on things. Just rest the blade in the notch and pull. Pistol-grip style with a guard, in black plastic. Measures 6" x 5/8" wide, with reversible and replaceable carbide cutting heads.

Our most colorful measuring set, and the most nestingest. The (6) pieces snap together and stay together until you push up from below on the handles. The scoops include: 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup. 1/4 cup, 1 tbsp, and 1/2 tbsp--in aqua, purple, pink, yellow, green and orange in the same order. And they’re BPA-free.

If the Tin Man had been plastic, this would have been his lid, and he'd have been rust-free. Our giant plastic funnel is 9-3/4" dia with a 3-1/8" long x 15/16" ID neck. Just under 10" tall top to bottom. Could be red or green depending on which way the surplus wind blows. Hang it by the little tab with a hole on the top edge. Buy (3), get a tennis ball, and run the biggest shell game in town.
