Retrosink: 1970’s Salton Peanut Butter Maker
It’s not available anymore, but check out this 1970’s Salton Peanut Butter Maker that was up for sale on Amazon. Dig that orange and yellow palette! I can almost taste the 70s on my palate. They probably used to make so many of these things that they had to ship them on a pallet. Wouldn’t you agree, pals?
*** UPDATE 12/11/13 ***
It would be pretty hard to hunt down one of these vintage peanut butter makers again, so in the meantime, here is a new one: Nostalgia Electrics NBM400 Electric Peanut Butter Maker. Not colorful nor highly rated, it won’t evoke the same memories, but hey, it’s less than $30. Just imagine how many bags of peanuts that could buy in 1970!
Ceramic Egg Rack
How do you tell the difference between a hard-boiled egg and one that is raw? By what they are served in, of course!*
Some may want to live on the edge and crack a dozen open to find out if they are cooked or not, but others may wish to consider the Kikkerland Ceramic Egg Rack. It holds a dozen eggs, looks good on the table and won’t turn into a runny mess when it comes in contact with a hard-boiled egg.
* Okay, okay. The secret is to give them a spin. The cooked egg will stop spinning while the raw one will start again when released–without being egged on to.
Mustache Ice Cube Tray
To some, the mustache fad will never grow old. Cold, however, is another story. The Mustache Ice Cube Tray by Accoutrements is a handy-dandy handlebar-maker that chills down drinks with style. Get it before the trend gets put on ice.
Unlock This Safe Kitchen Timer
Unlocking the secrets of the kitchen is only a matter of time. Sometimes that time can be measured in minutes. At least if the Kikkerland Safe Kitchen Timer is involved. Featuring a 60-minute countdown timer and a fancy design that resembles a safe lock, the kitchen gadget is magnetic and sticks to the fridge until it is time to crack open a safe or some eggs–whichever the case may be. And best of all, at less than 20 bucks it won’t break the bank.
Prepara Ice Balls–Because Cubes Are So Square

Get creative and add mint leaves, juice or fruit segments for a drinking experience that is sure to leave the guests asking for another round.
