Appreciation of new/improved things

[JEM]

Was thinking of this last night when I was making a quick supper before dancing. Anything new recently that you really appreciate or has made things easier?

Mine is already cooked bacon - just zap in microwave - yay, instant BLT's!! What took them so long to come up w/that - so great!

car "keys" that can be in your pocket or on your person to open a door or start the car....love it, much less fumbling around for the dang things!

My Google phone. Phone, camera, mp3 player, computer,calendar, gps and much much more. Its everything I could possibly need except food of course

Vegies you can steam in the bag then dump in a bowl - and they taste good - yay!!

Old socks make good dust cloths and window washing mitts. Slip one over your hand and away you go.

You can also fill them with bulk catnip rather than spending $4 on a catnip sack toy they destroy in minutes!

Actually, spray catnip. All those old toys they ignored are suddenly BEST TOYS EVER! (Yes, I turned my cats into drug fiends. It's okay. They like it.)

For my drug addiction, single-pod coffee makers instead of instant coffee. Real coffee without a whole pot to deal with.

Pineapple corer/slicer gizmo-gadgets. Worth every penny of the $9.99 (plus tax) that I paid for it. Makes cutting up a pineapple ridiculously easy. I think I'm going to be eating a lot more pineapple this summer...

Avocado slicer. I eat so much more avocado now.

I do like my kitchen gadgets - love to cook and the gadgets make everything easier.

Although it's not brand new it's still somewhat recent - I really appreciate the postage stamps now are self adhesive - no more licking! Though paying online is even better
