100th Post: $100 Favorites

It was hard to decide what to write about on my 100th blog entry. While I could certainly come up with top-100 lists, who'd really want to read all of that? One of the things I like best about reading blogs is finding out about cool new things that I come to love in turn. So on this momentous occasion, let me share with you a few of my favorite things that I'd happily drop a hundred dollars on, in honor of the hundredth post:

The Sodastream Soda Maker, favorite purchase of the year


KitchenAid Mixer Attachments - trust me, without these you have no idea what your mixer is capable of!


Philips Dual Screen Portable DVD Player takes long trips from excruciating to easy


Beaba Babycook Baby Food Maker - consolidates the baby food process and is a super nice splurge for a new mom.


Dewalt 18V Cordless Drill - a bit over budget, but the ideal drill in my eyes. Great battery life and an easy chuck make short work of DIY work.


SimpleHuman SS Step Trash Can - think about how many times you use your trash can every day. Treat yourself to a good one!


iPod Nano - if you aren't in the apple game yet, this gadget is a great way to get started. With music, media, calendars, and apps like the pedometer, the nano quickly integrates into your day.
