Attention Furries: Free Food

Chick-fil-A Offers FREE Meals to Cow-Dressed Customers on July 8 Seventh Annual Cow Appreciation Day Coming to Chick-fil-A

Oh, those wacky chicken-hawking cows. They want you to “Eat Mor Chikin”, and they are willing to pay for it. Dress up like a cow and on July 8th, you can get free chicken (or chikin) at Chick-fil-A. Dress up like a cow on July 9th and you’ll have to pay for it. But then again, you’ll be dressed up like a cow, which may or may not have happened anyway.

Take Me To Your Beater

Kikkerland Robot Measuring Cups

You can’t bake a cake without breaking a few eggs, or so the saying goes. If these Kikkerland Robot Measuring Cups are involved hopefully that’s all that breaks. Consisting of four measuring cups–1/4, 1/3, 1/2 and 1 full cup–the robot may look like it disassembles into a friendly kitchen helper, but it might be best to keep a box of cake mix on hand just in case.

California Avocado Recipes For Any State

California Avocado Guacamole Tarts (California Avocado Commission)

There’s a good chance the following recipes work with any avocado, and not necessarily California avocados, but I wouldn’t want to risk it. Best to listen to the press release that follows when making California Avocado Guacamole Tarts and Cumin Glazed Ribs with California Avocado Pineapple Salsa.

Dial-A-Meat Does House Calls

Charcoal Companion CC5103 Dial-A-Meat Markers Set

Every grill has one: a master; the person who steps up and takes charge of the grill. Usually this arrangement works out well for everybody. (Until they get all pushy about it.) Food goes on to the grill and then comes off in a steady, efficient procession. But as the steaks and burgers stack up, how is one to tell which are well-done and which are medium?

This eternal question finally has an answer. The Charcoal Companion CC5103 Dial-A-Meat Markers Set consists of metal tabs that announce the doneness of the meat. With five choices–rare, medium rare, medium, medium well, well–the little grill accessories keep track of what is what without having to ask the grill master, who really can’t be bothered right now, thankyouverymuch.

ChillBall Intelligent Ice In-Glass Wine Chiller

Make My Day ChillBall Intelligent Ice In-Glass Wine Chiller

Hot day, cold wine: good. Hot day, warm wine: not-so-good. But in these days of summer, it so often seems there isn’t enough time to chill the wine. One could do the seemingly sensible thing and drop an ice cube in the glass to cool down the wine quickly and effectively. Then again, that move is regarded as a faux pas by many. (Unless you’re drinking Two Buck Chuck, in which that case dilution would be a good thing.)

If you like what you’re drinking, but just want it cool, now, the Make My Day ChillBall Intelligent Ice In-Glass Wine Chiller offers a good (non-toxic) solution. The sealed spheres each contain a food-safe non-toxic gel and are designed to go from freezer to glass with no flavor-destroying side effects. And if you still get sideways glances and rude stares just tell ’em it’s the good stuff.

The Coolest Beer Mug

Strapya World Frozen Beer Mug Maker

Cans and bottles that tell you when your beer is cold are just too hard to operate. I mean, what if you want your beer ice cold? When the mountains turn blue does that mean it’s ice cold or just regular cold? It’s an important difference. One way to know for sure is to ditch the can and go for the Strapya World Frozen Beer Mug Maker. Consisting of a plastic handle, a base and the ice mold, the mug-maker lets you create a one-time-use beer mug made out of ice. Since the ice will eventually melt it will require require drinkers to stay at least somewhat aware, but if you really need some help in the matter perhaps drawing on a set of red mountains will help.
