I shake my head at his choice of shows that are designed around laughing at people getting hurt or when he's watching a sport that I find incredibly boring and he seems to question my judgment on most anything that I am addicted to on E! or my extreme enjoyment to QVC.
I can't help it, I just get sucked in watching all of the innovative, why-in-the-world-didn't-I-think-of-that products that are shown by the inventors and QVC's upbeat and positive hosts. I understand that my husband doesn't get as mesmerized as I do, but at least he should be thankful that I don't head straight to the phone or website to order all of the cool things that catch my eye.
Fortunately, I was able to have a taste of a 14-year QVC star, Lori Greiner, right in my own home recently by trying out two of her renowned innovations for the kitchen: the Set of 4 Nonstick No Mess Cooking Utensils and the Prep N' Pop Vegetable Helper.

Although she has over 250 products, her No Mess Cooking Utensils are one of Lori's favorites. Made of stainless steel and silicone, at first glance these tools don't look any different than the traditional ones that we all already own. However, the innovation of these utensils lies in the unique handles that are specially designed to hang on the side of a pot due to the well-placed S-shaped bend in each one.

When it comes to peeling the vegetables to go into those pots and pans, I have to admit that I've had my fair share of mishaps with the knife and peeler. I'm not sure if I'm just not paying attention or multitasking or I'm just careless (or a combination of the three), but my fingers are ready to be done with the nicks and cuts.
Now, instead of putting them at risk, I can simply grab the Prep N' Pop Vegetable Helper to hold veggies of all sizes for me without problem.

You can then reposition into the middle of your item so that you don't have to hold it while you chop or, if what is left is unusable like a core, you just pop it directly into the garbage without ever having to touch it.

With innovative products for travel or to help in just about any room of your home, it is no wonder that Lori Greiner has as many devoted fans as she does. Her ideas and inventions respond to the everyday needs that show up in so many households and their affordable prices make her products accessible to everyone. Now I've just got to tune in to QVC to see what Lori comes up with next!

Very cool. I like those utensils. I once left a spoon in the pan and it melted! LOL!
They look pretty amazing. I love new kitchen tools & gadgets! Hope I get to try them out too sometime.
Ok both are really cool. I'm a messy cook and just recently told hubby I need utensils that stay right on the pots and pans. The vegetable tool looks neat. No more fingers in the way!
OH I need those utensils! I have a half and half mix of metal and plastic utensils and I Think ALL of the plastic ones I own have bumpy spots on the backside where they have melted because I Sit them on the edge of a pan for a second before realizing. What a great idea!
