The stores must see me coming. “Hey… Here Comes Vicky”.

Especially in stores like the Real Canadian SuperStore I think the Kitchen Department is BRILLIANT – so many fabulous products and with it – matching fabulous prices. I really should avoid this store but I love Joe Fresh and wanted to see what was coming out for Spring. While I was in there, I just HAD to check out the kitchen aisles, right? RIGHT!!

This is what caught my eye on a recent visit to my neighborhood SuperStore:

I could not resist buying this. After all – it was ONLY $5.

I also knew what I would be doing with it. I would be making pancakes with it and kicking it up a notch with funky creative designs. Therefore on Sunday morning I got up bright and early (like all good mothers – HA) and took out the Bisquick.

I made the batter, poured it into the dispenser and let my inner child out!

I was smiling as was my 12 year old daughter and it was one happy kitchen!!

I was having a blast. HA. Who knew that cooking would be so much fun. Now, my daughter is not a picky eater, but can you imagine what a picky 3 year old child would be like if their pancakes were served with funky shapes and designs!! I almost (Note: almost) wanted to borrow someones child to find out.

Bottom line: I love products like this. I made a fun quick breakfast in NO TIME at all that made everyone smile. Congratulations Tovolo for creating this product and to SuperStore for carrying it.

Cant wait to use this product more and create more fun breakfasts.

I was strolling through Loblaws and noticed a pomegranate machine that helps de-seed that beautiful (but annoying) fruit.

I took a photo and tweeted…”has anyone seen this machine? does it work?”.

To my surprise, a handful of people responded.

So guess who went running back to The Superstore in my neighborhood later that nite? ME.

I bought the pomegranate machine ($5.99)  and two pomegranates and  ran home to test it out. (I know  I know, I have too much time on my hands).

I got home and followed the simple and easy instructions.

a) take off the crown and slice the pomegranate in half.

b) place the pomegranate on the plastic gizmo with holes (flat side down)

c) put the rubber dome on top.

How Simple!!

d) get a spoon and bang bang bang a few times

e) VOILA – pomegranate without the MESS.

OH HOW I LOVE Kitchen Gadgets.

So Good For You!!

Especially ones that cost $5.99 and WORK.

I went back to Loblaws to buy 5 more (I have a few foodie freinds..LOL) and sadly they didnt have it in that particular store. Will need to return to the store in my neighborhood to grab them before they are out of stock.

Happy Kitchen Gadgets!!
