Gliding a finger across the rim of a wine glass can cause it to sing, but what tune? The Musical Glass answers that question.

The Lodge Logic LGSK3 Guitar Skillet comes ready-to-use and measures about 10-inches by 5-inches.

Just don’t blame the cooking if everybody goes running.

Gadgets and gizmos routinely get attached to the machine, from egg cooker contraptions to integrated coffee makers. Usually however, the toaster is rather quiet about it.

It’s not out yet, nor can you download a leaked copy, but sometime in the near future the Rihanna iPod Dock Kitchen Scale will become a reality. From ADE Germany, the over-achieving kitchen scale features a speaker housed directly underneath the weighing platform. How or why this will exist is anybody’s guess, but if it’s a must-have on your list, the monstrosity will cost about a hundred bucks—or about as much as a boombox with two speakers (and a kitchen scale to boot).
