GET THIS BOOK! 834 Tips from Cooks Illustrated!

I recently came across this book put out by the Cooks Illustrated gang: 834 Kitchen Quick Tips - It's about the coolest book I've seen in a while.  It's perfect for your son heading to college... your newlywed daughter... even your husband!  585 pages of tips like, "restart the grill with a hairdryer. Use chopsticks to dry wine glasses spot-free. Peel a kiwi with a spoon. Skewer cheese using pretzel sticks. Leak-proof a cone with mini-marshmallows. Slice strawberries with an egg slicer. Protect a cake during transport with toothpicks with mini-marshmallows.  Soften butter with a rolling pin. Prevent a scorched saucepan with marbles. Clean a garlic press with a toothbrush. Melt chocolate with a coffee maker. Pit cherries with a paperclip. Drain lobster with a pair of scissors"  This is for MacGyver lovers and culinary afficionados alike!
