Recent Gadgets That I Love

January 30, 2024

I’ve been a gadget girl for as long as I can remember. When I was child I begged my dad to buy me a tape recorder. If you know what that is, then you’re as old as I am. LOL! I used it to record my sister and I singing, even though either of us can’t keep a tune. My friends and I would pretend we were newscasters or reporters and record interviews. Then I decided I needed a typewriter. Again, I begged my dad and he bought me one. Now I typed my news in a newspaper format instead. What a great imagination I had!

That being said, I still buy into all the gadget out there. Whether it’s the latest Apple watch or a new cooking gadget for my kitchen, I want them all! For today’s post, I’m going to share some of my tried and true kitchen and tech tools and gadgets that I love. I’m also sharing some newer ones that I’m loving.

*You can click on the highlighted text below for direct links to shop these products. I may earn a small commission when you use my links. I appreciate your support!

Hand warmers
Laptop Stand
Bluetooth Keyboard
Wireless Mouse
Rechargeable Lighter

Rechargeable Hand Warmers – These have been a game changer for my poor circulation. I literally charge them up and put them in my jacket pockets for when I’m out on my morning walks. They’re great for skiing, hiking, camping and different outdoor sports activities. Great gift idea for outdoor enthusiasts too.

Laptop Stand for Desk and Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse – If you’re tired of looking down at your computer screen, then this combination is for you. I think I bought mine during the pandemic when we were all doing zoom calls. It’s nice to have the adjustable elevated laptop screen and definitely helps with the tech neck we’re all getting. I use it with a bluetooth keyboard and wireless mouse. Of course I had to get the pink version.

Rechargeable Lighter – I bought these for Christmas stockings this year and had to get one for myself too. If you haven’t used one of these yet, I’m telling you, you’re missing out! I love having this for lighting my candles.

Veggie Tool
Single Serve Keurig
Warming Mug
Air Fryer
some of my favorite kitchen gadgets
Bread Maker

Veggie Spiral Tool – I bought mine during the pandemic when I was cooking more than usual. It’s fun to make healthier versions of pasta. I often use it to make zucchini noodles and we love them.

Keurig Single Cup – Yes, I have a built in coffee maker, and I love it. However, when I want a simple, no fuss cup of coffee I like using the single serve version of the Keurig. I like that you only put in the amount of water that you’re using so there’s no extra water hanging around inside the machine.

Self Heating Mug – I’m loving this affordable option of the self-heating mug. It keeps my coffee hot for 2-3 hours on a single charge. I gifted a few of these this holiday season and everyone tells me that they love theirs too. It comes in 3 color options. I have the black.

Instant Pot Air Fryer – I’ve always used a toaster over style air fryer, but recently treated myself to the basket style. I’m so glad I did! I bought the 6 quart size from this reputable brand. It’s been perfect for making all kinds of meals that are now a bit healthier because of this type of cooking method.

Zojirushi Mini Bread Maker – I had a bread machine when they first became popular wayyy back when. I’m talking about 20 years ago. That machine is long gone, but since I do love bread, I recently purchased this new one. I did lots of research before deciding which one to get. This one makes small 1 pound loaves which is perfect for my small household.

To see more of my recommendations, you can visit my Amazon storefront.

So there you have it! These have been some of my favorite kitchen and home tools and gadgets that I love right now. Tell me, what gadgets or tools have you purchased? Do you love them or have you gotten rid of them already? I’d love to know!

I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use thi I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use this beautiful Louis Vuitton handbag for a month. I borrowed it from Vivrelle and their membership service. They have hundreds or maybe even thousands of luxury designer bags to choose from. 

Comment CODE for the link and my discount code that gets you 50% off your first two months.

It’s a great way to try beautiful bags without committing to a single bag. I’m having so much fun with this membership!👜

Thank you @vivrelle for the gift of this membership!
I’ve always been obsessed with pizza. I’ve attempt I’ve always been obsessed with pizza. I’ve attempted to make it at home many times and had too many failures to count. But not any more thanks to @pocobero and their delivery of NY-style pizza dough balls shipped straight to my door. 

I had my kids and grandchildren over for swimming and make-your-own-pizzas this weekend. It was a total success. The flavor of the pizza crust was absolutely delicious. It tasted as good as being in a NYC pizzeria.

I see many more pizzas in my future.😎

I put all the veggies on my pizza. What are your favorite toppings?🍕🫑🍄‍🟫🧅

Thank you Poco Bero for the amazing gift!♥️
New series… Every Friday I will be sharing some ne New series… Every Friday I will be sharing some new product finds with you that were sent to me as PR for review or that I purchased. The good stuff needs to be shared and talked about for sure.
 
Question… do you want to see the duds too?

Today I shared jewelry from @analuisany that I have pretty much worn every single day for the last month. It lives up to its claims. I’m wearing a beautiful nude colored plumping tinted lip oil and silky lip liner from @purcosmetics and I love them too. They’re great everyday shades.
I’ve learned that confidence doesn’t come from try I’ve learned that confidence doesn’t come from trying to look younger—it comes from feeling good in your own skin and enjoying the life you’re living.

I’d love to hear from you… What’s one little thing that always makes your day better? A favorite lipstick? Getting dressed in an outfit you love? Your morning skincare routine? A walk outside? Enjoying time with friends and family? Tell me in the comments! 💕

I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one of the common lessons is that dewy or glowy makeup is better for mature skin. I agree completely because I feel like it blurs my 61 year old wrinkles a little bit and makes my skin look hydrated and healthy.
