About this list:

I like things that are offbeat, whimsical and wacky but that still serve a purpose. Again, these aren't things you'll likely see at your local big-box store or mall.

HOMEGOODS - KITCHEN - EQUAL MEASURE MEASURING CUP

3 people recommended this item

Description

I love putting things in perspective - this measuring cup takes common measurements and translates them into more interesting terms -

the website says:
Kitchen Measurements In A Whole New Light

Do you want to measure stuff the old-fashioned way or would you prefer to view your measurements in a surprising new light? Just go for it - next time you make brownies, use a tyrannosaur's brain of flour, or sugar equal to the water in a cumulus cloud the size of the bus.

Equal Measure is half measuring cup, half laboratory beaker, and all fun. And don't worry, we included ounces, milliliters, and cups on the scale too!

Pyrex-quality glass.

Automatic Penguin Tea Timer

First to recommend

Description

too cute - and functional, too. 1 to 20 minute timer lets you steep tea just the way you like it and then promptly pulls the infuser out of the cup at the appropriate time - no more tea that is too strong just because you forgot about it. Mr. Penguin will take care of it for you!

much better than a normal power strip - even a tangle of cords could make you smile when you are using the electro man outlet hub. It even has a surge protector.
