Now You Can Have Perfect Toast Without Trial-and-Error Kitchen Mishaps

This is coming from the girl who went nuts over a self-stirring coffee cup, but a see-through toaster is abso-freakin'-lutely brilliant. No more burnt toast or kitchen fires since I can see when the bread is perfectly oh-so-yummy-golden-brown. More »
