Like the modern furniture that are designed to make your life easier, The Eiko egg broiler holds the egg in place to enable the user to retrieve the egg easily when it is done cooking. The egg hangs down from the edge of the pot into the boiling water while the handle of the spoon stays cool. When the egg is boiled, just remove the spoon and rinse the egg with cool water. The Eiko egg broiler functions as an egg cup as well.

No More Wardrobe Malfunction
When I am shopping for tops, I have to refrain from buying some of them because they are low cut. I know I could wear a tube inside but it doesn’t look good all the time. I am glad that I finally found something which allows me to wear low cut tops without me fidgeting 🙂 It is a lil button called Bosom Button which can hold the clothing in place better than safety pins or tape. Bosom Button is made with sparkling Swarovski crystals and pearl cabochons. With the Bosom Button, I do not have to worry about my gaping shirt anymore. Available at Solutions.com.
Apple Slicer
Here is a nifty gadget which can help to create beautiful apple spirals for snacks and recipes. The Giro Apple Slicer from UncommonGoods.com is just perfect for slicing an apple in spiral form. This stainless steel slicer is easy to use and with one smooth fluid motion, you can get yourself some gorgeous apple spirals.
Pepper Saver
I cook peppers quite a fair bit and I also put them in the porridge for my child. However, I usually use half a pepper in the porridge. What do I do with the balance? I keep it in the fridge to be used the next time. Usually the leftover pepper would turn wrinkly after a few days. A while ago I came across a cute pepper-shaped container which helps to keep the air and light out of cut peppers. The Pepper Saver is perfect for keeping the cut peppers stay fresh longer.

Recycled Wine Bag Or Wine Caddy
While my husband while busy helping his friend to look up the 5th wheel warranty, I was scouring the internet for unique wine bags or wine holders. We have a party to attend next weekend and we would like to present the host with a bottle of good wine. I figure that a nice wine holder would be better than the normal gift bag. I found the most lovely wine bag at The West End. It is made of discarded newspaper and coated in plastic.
Another one which I like is the one below which is made from pages of twisted old magazines. Using these recycled wine caddy or wine bag to carry the wine bottles is rather eye-catching, don’t you think so?
Cute Mini Cooler For Dorms
Oh I have just seen the cutest thing ever. The Double Dot Mini Cooler from PBTeen.com. This cool mini cooler is perfect for kids going off to college. Well, I’m not a teenager but I would love to have this in my room. The Double Dot Mini Cooler is just perfect for keeping pops or water in the dorm room. Besides looking very cool, it consumes less power than a regular refrigerator. Awesome. Comes in pink and brown.
Keep Your Food Fresh With Okra Mastard Sacks
I saw these cute Okra Mastard Vegetable Keep Sacks from Reuseit.com which are pretty handy in the kitchen. While you may not use it to keep your macanudo cigars, they are great for keeping potatoes, onions, garlic and more. These keep sacks protect veggies from the light hence you can have fresher and longer-lasting veggies. Plus, they do not take up space too. Just hang them on the wall to keep your veggies. If you want to waste less food, then do get a few of these keep sacks.
Turn Tap Water Into A Sanitizer
My friend who sell textbooks to school children, just moved into his new home a couple of weeks ago. He held a housewarming party last weekend and while we were there, I can’t help but notice his Lotus Sanitizing System which he bought from Amazon. This amazing sanitizing system can turn the tap water into a powerful sanitizer. Water treated with this system will kill 99.9 percent of the germs on any surfaces. It can be used to safely remove bacteria, viruses and neutralizes pesticides from food. You can even sanitize children’s toys, teethers and pacifiers. How wonderful is that? With its Oxyshield technology, the Lotus Sanitizing System infuses cold tap water with an extra oxygen atom, thus creating a natural sanitizer. I am very interested in getting one for my home now.
