Accordian kitchen island expands to meet needs, then collapses
I think this piece speaks loads for itself, but I’ll give you a bit of background anyway. This was an entry by Olga Kalugina at the International Design Award 2009 called “Accordion” (of course!). Not only does it expand and contract to meet your individual needs, but it also provides extra storage space.
Unfortunately, it’s not an actual purchasable piece. It’s just an idea that was pitched. Can you imagine how great this would be to expand when you’re cooking, clean it up, and push it back together to open up an area when you’re not using?
The original source I had for this no longer has it up, so I don’t even have something to link to for you. You’ll just have to drool over its amazingness from here.
Quirky Perky Jerky
Quirky Perky Jerky….I’m sure I could come up with a few more rhyming words to throw in there, but I’ll spare you. Basically, this stuff is caffeinated beef jerky, flavored with guarana (the stuff that gives it a kick), meant to give you a pick-me-up without drinking coffee or energy drinks.
Animal-inspired pizza cutter, peeler, garlic press, bottle opener, and more fun gadgets!
Boston Warehouse a nice collection in Target stores and online of cute animal-inspired cooking utensils. Toucan can opener, veg-heg and punk-u-pine vegetable brushes, beaver tail whisk, and a squid baster are only a few of the adorable utensils, and seeing as how they’re from Target, the prices are reasonable even.
