Talking Dog Bowl

Chatterbowl
I knew it would eventually happen, a talking pet bowl! The Chatterbowl can record any message that you would like for your pet to hear during the day while you’re gone to work. It has a light sensor, so when your dog comes to the bowl to get a drink of water, they can hear your voice.

Although it doesn’t claim to be a solution for separation anxiety in pets, it may help. Just your calming voice will possibly put your dog at ease.

For only $24.95 it’s not a bad price for a neat gadget. I have a feeling I would get tired of the same phrase over and over again, luckily there is an off switch!


Da Gennaro Pizza Oven – Cook pizza on your countertop

Da Gennaro Pizza Oven
Pizza is one of my favorite foods…right after avocados.

Over the past few years I’ve really started liking homemade pizza more and more…though I have to say, it doesn’t hurt to have a wife who’s an amazing cook. But regardless, I really have enjoyed making my own pizza lately.

The Da Gennaro Pizza Oven lets you whip up pizzas like you were Papa John himself…right in the comfort of your home. Supposedly it will cook just about anything else that would work in a “wood burning stove”…which I assume to be pretty much anything.

Create Your Very Own Putt-Putt Course

My Mini Golf Putt-Putt Course

Putt-Putt is one of those classic games that anyone of any age can play and be on the same playing-field with their skill level. The obstacles in putt-putt really just make it a fun game for everybody.

Now, instead of having to pay $8 for a round at your local putt-putt golf place, you can setup your own course anywhere you choose!

The “My Mini Golf Putt-Putt Course” is a 16 piece set of loops, holes, ramps, and more that let you create a unique course in your office, home, yard, or wherever you’d like. My main gripe? It’s a whopping $420 for the set!

OXO Corn Slitter – Keep that corn out of your teeth

OXO Corn Slitter
Corn is probably one of my favorite vegetables. Unfortunately I’m really not a huge fan of corn on the cob. No matter what you just end up getting corn stuck in your teeth and getting corn juice squirted in your face the whole time you’re trying to eat it.

But the nice thing about corn on the cob is that it’s usually significantly tastier than the stuff you get in a can. So, to get the best of both worlds, check out the OXO Corn Slitter!

Just use the gadget to strip away the corn kernals before you cook them and then you’ll have the tastiness of fresh corn without having to pick it out of your teeth for hours afterwards!


Fishbone Ice Tray

Fishy Ice

Go on and admit it. Fun-shaped ice brings out the kid in you and you love it. Frozen water in odd shapes (especially in the shape of a fish) is certainly a conversation starter.

Whether you’ve got a kid who wants an underwater themed birthday party or if you want your own underwater themed party, this Fishbone Ice Tray is for you.

It’ll set you back around $9.
