When I look at a new kitchen gadget, I usually ask myself, "Would this thing make my life easier or more complicated?" This S'mores Maker seems to be designed to make a cozy camp-fire tradition both simpler (and therefore less fun) and more complicated (and therefore less fun). It promises to make two whole S'mores in the microwave in less than 30 seconds, the water reservoir ensuring even heating of chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers. Those folding arms that hold down the whole mess are kind of cute, and would probably amuse a kid whose home sick from school (if you're like me - the type of parent who gives sick kids sweets instead of soup). It's dishwasher-safe, so at least there's no huge mess to clean up. At just $7, it could make a good stocking stuffer - and it's available at Amazon.
