Gizmos and Gadgets
www.boomergadgets.com
    Sharon Creel presents a large number of gizmos and gadgets for everybody, but especially for the baby boomer generation and women over 50. Her site is user-friendly, which cannot be said for  many appliance sites.  She provides some practical hints, such as replacing blender and food processor with an Ultimate Chopper with attachment, thus saving valuable room. 

Oven Mitt
