Basic Style Apron - Terracotta



Apron review
I love the color. One thing I did not like is that the D ring for adjusting the length is right next to the top of the bib, rather than at the back of the neck. There is a lot of extra strap hanging down in front which needs to be tucked behind the bib to keep it out of the way.

Ashbys English Breakfast Decaf. Tea Bags, 200 Count Box



Simple transaction
I am pleased with the price and the value for these teabags. The order transaction was simple.
I was a bit surprised that the 200 teabag packages were loose (not in a plastic bag or other package), but other than that I have no complaints.

Tiger America 15 c. Electr Rice Cooker/Warme ( JCC-2700 )



Tiger 15 C.
Does just what it is supposed to do, cook rice. FYI, the pot inside measures from 7 C. to 15 C. :)

good rice cooker and reasonable cost
made in Japan - good rice cooker and keep warm next day ,rice still fresh like new
best price from everywhere from US

perfect rice cooker
This is great. It can cook a large amount of rice, but doesn't take longer than regular size rice cooker. rice is always perfect too. my mother loves it. The only thing bad i can think of is that it doesn't have a container for the rice spatula, but that is not really a problem.

Tiger America 10 c. Elec Rice Cooker/Food St ( JNP-1800 )



Warm rice all the time
I have owned this type of Rice Cooker for more than 2 years. It is a little pricey compared to other rice cookers, but from my experience, it is worth it. This rice cooker cooks rice quickly (15 minutes or so) and it keep the rice warm until you are ready to eat. I had my rice stay on "warm" one time for two days without the rice turning brown and the bottom getting hard and burnt. We always have our rice cooker on "warm" so that we can have rice available 24/7. We eat rice for lunch and dinner and sometimes for breakfast too, so I always cook rice in the morning and it will last us until dinner. If we have left over rice for dinner, it will still stay warm and fluffy the next day.

I have tried several cheaper rice cookers sold in Target, they do a good job in cooking rice, but they dont keep it warm and soft... after a few hours of being on "warm" the rice turns brown and hard. These cheap rice cookers are only good for occasional rice eaters and for those who can finish...

Best Rice Cooker - Dependable - Great for the Money
Got Rice? Our family eats rice every day (2-3 times) and our last Tiger 10 cup rice cooker was a Christmas present from my parents over 10 years ago. When the non-stick got too worn out, I decided to buy a Panasonic based on decent user reviews. Well, the quality of rice that came out was not up to TIGER standard. With TIGER, you have fluffy rice that kept well for hours, not crusty/hard/crunchy. Well, after seeing this on sale, I had to buy it. Trust a life time rice eater. This is the best rice cooker for around $100 (or more) that you can buy.

Rice the way it was meant to be eaten...
I have owned this cooker for almost 17 years, yes, only one of them. And though the lid doesn't always close tightly any more, it still makes incredible rice. International friends who come to my house are always surprised, and pleased, to see the cooker. They know they will get to eat good rice. I have eaten what comes out of cheaper cookers. Buy a good one, and this is a good one. We use it one to two times a week and it has been a workhorse, 3 servings, 10 servings, it does them all. It keeps the rice warm for hours. A great investment.

KitchenAid KFP750PK 700-Watt 12-Cup Food Processor, Cook for the Cure Komen Foundation Pink



Works very well
After years of not having a food processor, finally broke down and bought this one. I'd made do with a stand mixer, blender, mortar and pestle, and knives. Not sure why I waited so long to buy one, but am very glad I did.

The 750 works as advertised. It has a powerful motor, the various cutting blades perform well.

The reasons for giving the product 4 stars instead of 5 are:

1. The lid does not seal very tightly so when processing liquids, there's a fair amount of leakage.

2. The mini-bowl is very handy and handles small amounts better than if they were put in the larger bowl; but, there is frequently some leakage into the main bowl.

These are minor issues and shouldn't discourage anyone from buying this machine. However, the new 760 model seems to have many more features for just a little bit more money. Before buying the 750, you should check to see if the 760 better meets what you need.

Wonderful machine
A more accurate rating for this food processor, in my opinion, would be 4 and a half stars. It is truly a great machine. Sadly, this is my third food processor in 4 years, as I had two horrible experiences with other brands, before I finally bit the bullet and spent the cash on this one. I wish I had done that in the first place! I have used this processor for several applications and so far I am VERY pleased. It shreds cheese like a pro, chops veggies with ease, pulverizes nuts, is adept at making batters and doughs etc. It is a very powerful machine and can handle just about any task you throw at it. The smaller mixing bowl and blade attachment is very handy, too, and a welcome addition for those smaller jobs. Nobody likes having to wash a big bulky bowl for a little task like chopping a couple tablespoons of parsley. And I love the accessories case it comes with! Everything is neatly stored in one (somewhat) compact case for easy retrieval. The only downfalls to this machine (and...

Great product with serious liquid limitations which make it a 4 cup food processor.
This is a wondeerful food processor with a powerful and quiet motor. There is one odd feature that is not very clearly mentioned about the amount of limited liquid this unit can handle and should be well understood before one buys this device. First you will not be able to put much more than 2 inches of fluid, 4 cups(32 ounces)due to the short center shaft which is only 2 inches that holds the blade in the main cavity. This is a design limitation that could have been overcome with simple mechanical engineering by using the full height of the cavity which is 5 inches. Instead of using a longer center shaft designed to slide the small work bowl on,the Kitchenaid engineers used a short 2 inch shaft. This in turn severly limits the height of fluid in the main mixing cavity to 2 inches(4 cups), because fluid leaks out of the main cavity over the short 2 inch center shaft that holds the processor blade. Unfortunately, this essentially makes the 12 cup a 4 cup food processor for items with...

BevWizard Magnetic Wine Aerator, Smoother, Enhancer, Dripless Pourer



BevWizard Magnetic Wine Aerator, Smoother, Enhancer, Dripless pourer
Perfect gadget to have around for wines. Just open your bottle of wine, place the dripless pourer on the bottle and pour. The wine will taste better & smoother then when not used. Do a taste test without people knowing which was poured straight from the bottle and which was poured w/ the BevWizard on it. Each & every time, people have favored the wine poured from the bottle w/ the BevWizard. Bought this one for my mother as I've had mine for almost ten years now. Great hostess gift idea. Highly recommend!

This is the one I use most often
This aerator has changed the way I drink wine and allowed some of my friends who don't enjoy red wine to be able to drink. It works by attaching the wine aerator to the top of the bottle, allowing the wine to pour out the spot when tilted. The magic all happens when the wine is run across a magnet that helps open up the wine to allow air to be infused with the wine via the air hole pictured in the item picture here on amazon.

I have several Wine Aerators that I have used over the last few years. Each aerator has a different effect on the wine poured through it and some are easier to use then others. This aerator is my most used aerator as it is both easy to use and opens up the wine well. I love how it fits on top of the bottle and stays on when I pour. I can just attach it and forget it. It also has a no-drip tip that works well compared to strait pouring.

I don't know exactly how the magic that this aerator can pull off, but it's opened up wines that never...

Love the product. Wine tastes so much better and I can sleep all night after a couple pf glasses. Wine used to keep me awake all night.
