Gadgets

We've all seen them. If you've ever been to a mall you seen them. The store with all the shiny kitchen gadgets. Something for every possible need for every possible occasion. And most of us have been tempted. I just gave away two 'egg-rounders'. You know, for making your eggs fit English muffins PERFECTLY. They were a bugger to clean and the English muffin thing was just a phase. So they are out of here!

But the one gadget that I use at least every other day is our apple corer. Gosh, what a good investment. (In fact the one we have now is all metal 'cause Washington apples and Texas hands broke a plastic one.)

I think it started with Kevin Trudeau's 30 steps to lose 30 pounds in 30 days. Breath deep, walk 20 minutes, eat three apples everyday. That's a lot of apples. You really want an easy way to make those 30 steps happen. That's why I kept the grapefruit spoons that Eric's Nana gave us. (Grapefruit is on the list, too.) And while grapefruit hasn't been on the grocery list in a while. Apples are on there every week. Ashley has them for a bus snack, Eric takes them to work.

Apple corer...a gagdet worth having.
