I dont know if I would call it a gadget but I call it sent from the heavens LOL
As some of you may know, I have a huge french mastiff puppy and her days of dragging me where ever she wanted are over LOL

Its been a long time since a walk was enjoyable. It stopped being enjoyable right around the time she hit 75 LBs. she would get this look on her face and I knew what was coming. just taking off from a dead stop to a full run. there goes arwen, followed shortly by me sideways LOL

But thanks to the ever wonderful Miss Christie, who highly recommended it. I bought one and now I am back in control of this monster. She hates it that I can stop her in her tracks LOL but there was very little struggle to get her to wear it and has settled in nicely to it.

so thanks Miss christie from my back, arms, legs and everything in between LOL

I know you want to talk about tools and all, but I'd like to take this into the kitchen for a minute. My favorite gadget was a giveaway from the Welcome Wagon, over twenty years ago. It's about the size of a spatula, but it's made like a flat slotted spoon with an edge that catches on the egde of a pot. So, you can easily drain vegetables and pasta without having to worry about a colander. It's uncomplicated, and one of my favorite things in the kitchen.

Oh - if we are talkin house gadgets, I must say that I think Jess loves the Food Saver vacuum sealer thingy more than I do. One week right after I bought it, I came home and everything in the fridge was vac-u-sealed! I told the boyz (our two mini schnauzers) that they best hide or Daddy would have them zipped up tight!

I love the sealer thingy!!!! hereeeeeee kitty kitty

Kitchen gadgets are a huge turn on for me and usually the simpler the better. I started using my Braun "wand" mixer for mixing glazes when I used to dabble with pottery and now have one that is devoted to stirring paint that lives on the tool shelf. Nothing beats one of those for mixing up a fresh vinaigrette.

I went to the garage and grabbed my cordless drill and stuck one of the beaters in the tip. Talk about torque.

They were the fluffiest potatoes I've have ever had.

LMAO! That is awesome! I may have to put some beaters in the tool box.. or a drill in the kitchen drawer!
