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.

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 head is 2-1/8” dia at the bottom x 2-1/8” long, with a little center pin to keep it off the bottom of the bowl or jar or whatever. In stainless steel.

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!

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.

And it’ll never smell like leftover pork lo mein again. The fridge, that is. We love this 4” tall penguin in the traditional black and white outfit just for the way it looks. But pull off the black silicone top, and fill the hard plastic bottom with baking soda, and the little bugger will deodorize your ice box for no additional charge.

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.

Not you—we were talking to your favorite kitchen knife, or the one that used to be your favorite before it got dull, and it said yes, it’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer. It’s depressed, and it wants you to buy this Mozzbi tungsten and ceramic 2-stage sharpener. Self-adjusting for anything from paring knives to chef’s choppers, it can be used on any straight knife. A few pulls through the coarse side, and same on the fine side, and you’ll be slicing like d’Artagnan through Cardinal Richelieu's guards. Too soon?

That'd be Baby Sifter, Mama Sifter and Papa Sifter. (Sorry, no sister sifter, and don't think we don't miss the pun opportunity.) All (3) of these fine-mesh strainers are made of premium stainless steel. Have broad rims and little extension tips so they'll sit on top of bowls. They'll hang by the tip or handle, and they're dishwasher-safe. Papa's 7" dia for bakers; Mama's 4-1/2" dia for smaller tasks; and Baby's a mere 3-1/4" dia, perfect for budding mixologists to keep the lemon pulp out of the sidecars.

Small for a TV but perfect for keeping the bacon grease from spattering all over your kitchen, and for straining pasta over the sink. Cineastes will recall seeing Jack Lemmon using a tennis racket for just this purpose in The Apartment, but we think those holes are too big. Our proper strainer measures 13” dia in finely woven and reinforced stainless-steel mesh. Get a pair so you can always play a little post-prandial kitchen badminton.

Not if you store them in this double produce basket with wide-open bottoms to let air circulate and prevent mushy fruit. In bright chrome, it measures 14-3/4" x 14-1/4" x 11" tall with a 10” x 9” top basket and an 11” x 11” bottom. Both baskets swing, like banana hammocks, and we know how much bananas like to swing. Kiwis and green peppers, too. Half the retail price, and no need to thank us. A tiny bit of assembly required.
