Take a mundane chore, like slicing lemons for some mixed drinks, and turn it into fun by doing it on this cutting board. It is amazing that just making the cutting board in the shape of a guitar can change your whole outlook. Each slice will be just like strumming on the strings. About the worst problem you will have is that you may have more drinks than you planned on just to get rid of all the slices you have cut. And that is not really such a bad thing.

No one enjoys doing dishes. But it is just one of the jobs that needs to be done. Maybe you can bribe your kids into doing it if you let them use these Bubble Scrubbers. They can wash for a few minutes and then spend a minute blowing peoples. Then repeat. Before you know it those dishes are done.

Baseball and Pepper Mills just seem to go together. I am not sure how, but a baseball bat certainly does seem to be perfectly shaped for that job. It isn’t exactly a Louisville Slugger, but it will look better on your table than the average, oversized pepper mill. You may also find that batting those peas and brussels sprouts around is more fun than eating them.
