Crock Pot ... and other things

You know you're going to be blown away by a post entitled "Crock Pot", right? Maybe I should add "and other things." There, that's better. Now I need to put other things in this post too.

Anywhosit-whatsit, my mom got me this crock pot warmer thing for Christmas and I was all, hmm, will I use this thing? Seems kind of gitschy. But it turns out YES.

It has this separate bowl thing that has a top and you can store that in the refrigerator with your leftovers (both times I used it for soup, but I think anything should work, I'll report back after I've used it with other things) and then when you need them, you drop the bowl into the crock pot warmer and plug it in. It's amazingly fast and tastes like you warmed it on the stove instead of the microwave. Two thumbs up.

Let's see, what else do I love?

These bluetooth headphones. I got them for Christmas and they are fantastic. The battery lasts forever and you can use them in a pinch to talk on the phone if you're in the middle of a walk when your mother calls to talk about your sister's pregnancy and bloodwork results.

This Karl Marx money bank. I just found it amusing, ordered it on a whim (because I needed a money bank anyhow) and yes, it makes me smile everytime I look at it and drop a few coins in. Good ol' Karl holding onto my money for me, for the betterment of society. Or some crap like that.
