Cooking With Coolio
Friday, February 5th, 2010I have a feeling that I’ve seen Coolio cook before, but I’m not entirely sure. It’s so… surreal. I must have dreamt if. If so, then this is a dream come true. And perfect timing since I’ve just recently got over my enormous attitude about cooking and have been working on domesticating myself in the [...]
Pasta Tasting Fork
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009Considering spaghetti was one of the first meals I learned to prepare for myself, I’ve wrestled with many rogue noodles over the years for the simple taste test. Through this constant struggle to see eye to eye with the slippery noodles, I have endured multiple burnt fingers, tongues and have consumed far too much undercooked [...]
Pac-Man HotHead
Friday, February 6th, 2009Word’s can’t express how I feel about the Fred & Friends collection, especially some of the newer stuff added to the Spring catalog, but it’s good feelings nonetheless. The Pac-Man HotHead for example is nothing short of perfection. Except if it comes with a few freshly baked ghosty chip cookies. Then it’ll totally surpass it! [...]
Rubik’s Cube Salt And Pepper Mills
Friday, February 6th, 2009I tend to enjoy a delicious meal over a mind boggling puzzle any day, so don’t take it personally, Rubik’s Cube. It’s not like I was ever good at solving you anyway. But man, do I know how to clear a plate! At least I can share that with you, right?
The Rubik’s Cube Salt and [...]
Cooking With Shovels Makes Cooking Almost Fun
Tuesday, October 14th, 2008If cooking could be narrowed down to just a chop and a scrape, I would probably spend more time in the kitchen and less time whining and begging at my neighbor’s doorstep. What can I say? I’m an impatient procrastinator, so when I’m hungry I best be fed immediately. But when it comes to cooking [...]
Holy Rolling Hot Dog!
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008Grilled hot dogs are pretty good and oh so easy to achieve. On the other hand, that gas station style dog hasn’t really been something you could just whip up at home. Well, now you can on the grill with the Automatic Hot Dog Grill Roller. Powered by 4 AA batteries, this auto roller can [...]
Pizza Scissors
Tuesday, July 29th, 2008When making pizza at home, cutting a slicing can be a real bitch. Remember that you do not in fact have the same set up for pizza making as your local pizza establishment, so put down that butcher knife already. You might hurt somebody or even the pizza. Instead of making a mess of your [...]
Uniquely Literal Measuring Cup
Monday, March 17th, 2008Everyone has a few words and terms they make up or use out of context when it comes to cooking, but in general we stick to a universal set of measurement. Harry White decided to take it another level by designing this measuring cup with rather unique units to go along with his cookbook that [...]
Index Chopping Boards
Monday, March 10th, 2008Whether you hate filing or you love it, I think we can all agree that some trend of it would be useful outside of the office. But in the kitchen? Looks like it! Available from the MoMA store, probably one of the most funkiest stores ever, are these Index Chopping Boards. In order to [...]
BBQ Sword
Friday, March 7th, 2008This week we’ve had a taste of what warmer times have to offer us, and I think I speak for everyone when I say I can’t wait for the spring and summer weather. With good weather comes good food, food we fry outdoors in good weather. While you BBQing wizards work your magic, maybe it’s [...]
Portionpals
Thursday, March 6th, 2008If food preparation is downright confusing to you, which it definitely is for a lot of people, you may need a little guidance. Portionpals are illustrated silicone discs that give you a better idea of what the proper portions would be. I think in general it’s important to eat past being hungry, and I personally [...]
David Bowie Is In The Kitchen
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008I can’t really imagine anything better than being accompanied by David Bowie in the kitchen, especially if he’s the one doing the cooking. Second best to David Bowie would be this Aladdin Sane apron, so you can get all androgenously Ziggy with your cooking. If you really put your mind to it, I’m sure there’s [...]

Pixel Cookies
Monday, January 14th, 2008Eva Funderburgh, who is obviously one snazzy and creative lady, has posted a flickr how-to album for pixel and tetris themed cookies. Best part? She uses playdoh extruders. You know, those pumps to make the long playdoh spaghettis. Except unlike playdoh, which is non-toxic so therefore edible, these cookies should taste good.
After pumping out rods [...]
Gun Eggs
Monday, January 14th, 2008There’s no better way to start your day with a hearty, healthy, and protein enriched breakfast. And when I say protein, I really mean some of that good old fashion GSR. Give your kids the right idea about violence, or drop a helpful hint that your loved one is skating on thin ice with these [...]
