As a child growing up.... I always wanted to be
Superman!
The ability to see through walls, the ability to fly and even the ability to shoot laser's out of my eyes always seemed cool. Well, needless to say... THAT never happened.
Not sure why?? Guess my Superman cape was too small....
Well the other day.... I came across something that made my
dream come true!!
And as you might of guessed... it was a
two slice toaster!
It was not one of those Under the Cabinet Toaster Ovens.... it was a
see through toaster!
Not only was I able to see through it, if I really strained my eyes and stared at the bread....
(and of-course pushed the lever down)
I could see these red lines get brighter and start to turn the bread into Toast! It made me feel pretty powerfull!
Then I had to turn quickly around to make sure my wife was not watching me....
WOW.... that would of been awkward!
I guess sometimes it is the simple things in life like a, stainless steel toaster, that makes you feel special!
I recently suffered an accident that is preventing me from any real exercise for about 6 weeks
(sorry, too embarrassed to share the exact nature of my mishap.) So, naturally I'm worried about ballooning in weight since this is new ground for me. Because of my massive toaster fixation, I'm going to start focusing on foods that I can eat that will help me control my calorie intake and easily prepare in the best two slice toaster I can find. In this case, I would suggest leaning towards the Breville Stainless Steel Toaster and Kashi GoLean Waffles.
What makes this combination so great? Well the waffles only have only 160 calories per serving and the Breville has a frozen setting that makes cooking frozen waffles a breeze. I also like that it has slots that contract gently to the right diameter and a little device that lets me look at the waffle without having to stop the toasting process.
I've seen the Breville Four Slice Toaster and it's magnificent as well. A lot of people seem to like the
"little bit more button" and the fact that you can toast a hamburger bun!
Now that's a feature that makes for a true 24 hour appliance!
Decorating Divas unite!
After spending hours and hours selecting each and every feature for your house.....now you need to focus on the little things that will make an impact! Make a Hamilton Beach green toaster your focal point in your kitchen....
it's the little things that make a difference.
Whether you choose a 2-slice or a 4-slice - you can go retro, modern or stick with the classic the possibilities are endless.
Color is key - a black, blue, or red one can make the difference in making your kitchen pop!
Go to Global Toaster and let the planning begin from the convenience of your home.
Some colors to take a look at are a Pineapple 2-slice toaster by Hamilton Beach...A Sea Breeze two-slice toaster in all-metal (every beach house should have one) also by Hamilton Beach... or go for the green version in apple.
Before you get out those paint chips....select your toaster and go for it!
Happy Decorating!
I organize my 2-slice toaster collection by color. I love color and I love the best small toasters -- so combining my two loves brings double pleasure to me.
Now, I know that some of you will say that my favorite appliances should be displayed in alphabetical order, but I am a very "go with the flow" person so that does not fit in with my plan.
My favorite is the Kolorik I found on-line at Global Toaster.
It is a very stylish with extra wide slots.
OH, I FORGOT TO MENTION. I DO WEAR SHOES TO MATCH MY TOASTERS. ORANGE TOASTERS - ORANGE SHOES!
AWESOME..........................
So here is a picture of the breakfast I made the other day in my office.
Actual results from my Egg and Muffin Toaster.Sorry if it looks a little used, but this was so perfect coming out of my Back to Basics Egg & Muffin Toaster I had to get a few bites in before I started blogging. My recipe for this was simple: Multi Grain English Muffin (100 calories), one cage free egg (I noticed they had Cage Free and Organic but not Cage Free Organic?) I also eat Cholula Sauce on everything so added a couple of shakes to this as well.
Perfect. Warm, fresh. What was cool is that the toaster works so that the toast and the egg are done at the same time. I went with the two slice toaster version but they make a bigger one.
Seriously this is going to be a great office device. Doesn't smell, nothing to really clean up... (forgot to mention that I used an olive oil based cooking spray) I use one paper towel...use it as a napkin and then wipe the tray out and bingo.
As far as toasters go, this one really doesn't resemble any I have ever seen. It looks more like a cake knife than anything.
What it is though, not like your classic two slice toaster, is a hand-held toasting device for on the go.
Yep, you can whip this out when your on the fly and hold out your bread that you pull from your pocket and gently glide this over it until it carmelizes the sugars of the bread just soooo... to a toasty brown. yummy.
I can't imagine a more pleasant way of making breakfast than jumping on a crowded subway and toasting my bread between stops with this. Totally sanitary. So convenient.
It's ingenious. I think it was developed in Korea... and they even incorporated a pretty butterfly pattern to let you know when it's done toasting.
Can your Kitchenaid cobalt blue toaster do that?
A whole new world!
I'm officially hooked...checking into the best toaster reviews I've found the "Back to Basics TEM 500 Egg-and Muffin 2-slice toaster and Egg Poacher."
This black toaster has to win the best two slice toaster award!
The challenge would be for me to learn how to operate this baby without calling my son!
Only kidding...it looks easy to operate and works like magic. My husband would never complain again....it would eggs and toast everyday for him...shh...don't tell him it cooks bacon too!
If you want to find a way to make breakfast easier, check out Global Toaster.
You'll be glad you did!
What do you get when you take a simple two slice toaster and add, say... a turbo jet engine?
I'll tell you what you get, you get HOT CRISPY TOAST in no time! Hello?!?!NASA maybe invented this baby. And, why not? It's a smith toaster blue classic. How many jet fueled toasters have you seen in your day?
If this takes off from your counter and lands in your neighbor's yard...
well, that's what I call entertainment!I like the sleek toaster styling that's incorporated...
look at that glossy silver toaster oven finish. It's ridiculous just how turbolishous this totally is.
I think I might have to attach this to a skateboard, and see how far if would take it.Come on people, tell me how
cool that would be!?!? Cruising down the alley with a slice of freshly toasted bread in hand. Talk 'o the neighborhood. For sure!
Blue Toasters, Green Toasters, Stainless Steel Toasters...best bagel toaster, best two slice toaster and on and on. .. I couldn't help it....my life was being taken over and consumed by my favorite appliance...toasters...whatever happened to just back to basics toasters?
Everywhere I went I found myself looking to see what type of toasters or toaster ovens everyone was using... would I spot a retro stainless steel number or perhaps a cobalt blue toaster...or please, please - a green toaster oven or a green toaster.
My husband couldn't figure me out....I couldn't wait to slip silently into kitchens wherever we went to see what beauty might be on their countertop. This from someone who answers "where do you want to go" whenever asked what's for dinner?"
After extensive research, we finally had a diagnosis....I was suffering from TOASTERITIS!
The symptoms were in front of us all along...including making my grandchildren pose in front of the best small toaster or best stainless steel toaster I could find. I must admit for photo purposes my red-haired granddaughter looks great next to a hunter green toaster!
I withdrew for awhile...but, I found I just couldn't live without my toaster fix! My headaches have subsided...I head over to global toaster and take a deep breathe and I find myself in toaster heaven...oh the good life!
I had been promoting the two slot toaster as a great option for a Halloween costume in October... and I'm STILL a little creeped out by this one.
But... maybe that was the intent. Halloween is supposed to be scary, right?
Is it because the costume is that bad, that they felt the need to write "toaster" across the side of it?
Perhaps nobody would have been able to guess what she was trying to be.And... is that the toast-dial at the bottom? Or, is that the crumb tray? I'm confused.
What's with the witch-lady's head coming out of the top too?
I don't want her crazy grey hair all over my toast. yuck.
I'm all for dressing up like the best two slice toaster, but this is just not the way to do it folks.Get some creativity points and try something like the breville die cast toaster as a costume idea.
I'll give you a hint. If you feel the need to scribble across the front of your costume what it is in plain english... it sucks. Start over.
I might not be the brightest... but looks like we have a problem on our hands here folks.
Somebody. please stop staring at what might be the issue, and call the fire department.
It's obvious from this illustration that something has gone wrong... horribly wrong.
The tell-tale white two slice toaster is right there center stage. There's no denying that it's guilty as charged.
Nope, that rickity table had nothing to do with it.
What else could have caused all that smoke?!?!
Take it from me. Don't end up like these two. Toss out your fire trap and find yourself a convection stainless steel toaster or a cuisinart brushed chrome toaster to replace it.
It's not worth picking up your cheap toaster oven like these two schmucks and wondering what went wrong.
The smoke says it all. You need to buy toasters online NOW.
Is this a Proctor and Silex Toaster?Yeah... I don't know what this is. Somebody made a two-slice toaster out of an Armadillo?
This person had to come from Texas. Isn't that the state animal for them?I wonder if this one from Mr. Eissler's collection.
I wonder who owns this one? This could top the list for unique toasters I've found.
I don't know if you can buy toaster online like this one, but at least you can find a fully functional
less-armadillo-ish toaster among the quality toasters at Global Toaster.
Get yourself a non-armadillo best stainless steel toaster here.
What a great chew toy!
You might find this hard to believe, but many dogs are just as big of fans of the two slot toaster as we are.
Here's proof.
Look at this pink toasters chew toy for that pampered doggie who keeps a place in her heart for the best small toaster.
I can just imagine a little L.A. chihuahua strutting around (or poking its head out of a pooch-purse) with this hanging out of its mouth.
It's such a cute furry toy with the slice of bread hanging out it, complete with a cord and plug...
I wonder if they make pink toaster oven chew toys to match?
I realized that when I am looking at toasters in stores or even on-line, I constantly hum. I hum as I ponder why these marvelous appliances intrigue me so much. It is a happy hum, so I am not going to worry about it. It's not like I am not normal or anything.
I wasn't sure today if people were staring at me because of my beautiful toaster t-shirt that I wore or because of my humming. But, whatever -- they need to get a life!
I realized that the appliance design is a huge, huge part of my love for the toaster. I am happy that toasters are in a constant state of redesign. This fact alone helps me get up and face each day!
But, when I saw this baby -- a De'Longhi toaster with a warming rack on top, I just about popped (no bun intended - ha!!!!) out of my skin!
The De'Longhi brushed metal toaster is a durable, stylish and beautiful 2-slice toaster. The warming rack lets you warm croissants, bagels and other already toasted items. It's two extra-long, extra-wide slots work in concert with self-adjusting grips to center food for precise, double sided toasting.
It was a wonderful hum-filled day and I will go to sleep counting toasters.
I'm so conflicted about this illustration.
Not sure what to do here... on the one hand, we have the super-cool ninja with his samuri sword blazened ready to take on the "enemy"...
but then, on the other hand, the opponent is an... “evil” single slot
toaster?umm.
I'm all for the underdog, but I think they can both hold their own here.What's more frightening than a powerful toaster with its fangs out???
It's got its cord ready to strike and flaming toast ready to pop up... all I know is that this kitchenaid two slice toaster is spitting mad.
I wonder what they're fighting about?Last I checked ninjas... didn't...
rival toasters...Interesting. I think we should throw like a rice cooker into the mix here just to see what happens.
Hey, ninja dude- do some flips over the angry toaster. It'll be cool.
So what's wrong with this picture?
I see nothing. That white two slice toaster is obviously having the time of its life, celebrating some major milestone in its life.
Right?Hey- put the bottle down for a sec, would ya?You know smart toasters actually break out a glass and don't guzzle their Tattinger straight out of the bottle...
Did your mother teach you any manners?!?You know you're not going to wind up in any of the best small toaster reviews if you keep this up... I'm going to have to report you.
I think you just might have a problem Mr. Oster white toaster.Yeah, I'm talking to you.
Sometimes I worry about the educational system of our nation. But, when I saw this K through 12 pink toaster tool my fears were laid to rest.
I firmly believe that every young boy and girl should grow up with proper smart toaster training.
How are they to become contributing members of our toasting society otherwise?
This wooden toaster (which may also come in blue willow toaster for the boys) is complete with wooden faux bread slices, a pre-buttered wooden knife and pats o' butter.
What else would you need to properly teach your child the delicate technique to two-slice toaster toasting?
This is a complete set and I couldn't be more thrilled to know that the children of our nation will all be better off knowing just how this (the most important appliance of the kitchen) works.
I am Jane Toast and I love all things extreme, especially extreme outdoor sports...
I've been known to jump out of perfectly working airplanes, jumped off of towers with only a bungee cord tied around my ankles, been thrown out of a raft navigating whitewater...
I absolutely LOVE the adrenaline rush. There is no substitute for it.
(unless you include the feeling I get when I walk by a sexy toaster... of course.)
I saw this photo of two slices of toast engaged in EXTREME POP-UP SPORTS!
Check out the yardage these two are getting from the white two slice toaster down there.
Seriously, this could be Olympic record toasting!
I wonder how these two train for this gig. I'm impressed. And how do they decide who to team up with?
I think they need Evil-Keneval red, white and blue spandex-ed outfits.
What if they found two other wild and crazy toast-flyers and got a Dualit four slice toaster to launch them into the air?
That would be amazing to witness. They could coordinate extreme-poses and flips like in the X-games.
Do you think they made it up and over the tower?
I wonder how they plan to land... maybe they're packing chutes. Surely, they had a plan before launching themselves up into the hall of fame flight path o' crumbs.
I'd like to get their toasty autographs at any rate.
Amazing feats of toast courage right here captured in a photo for all to see.
POP-UP, UP and AWAY!
LOVE IT!
Who remembers this?
It's only the best small toaster screensaver ever! The flying toasters on a mission to save your computer monitor from burn-in.
Fitting, huh?
I wonder who recruited this fleet of high quality toasters to be charged with this noble mission. I bet they were hand-picked for their integrity and heart.
The two slice stainless steel toaster with wings accompanied by a fleet of toast to help the cause.
It's for the cause! Full speed ahead!!!
With the change in the weather it's time to switch out your wardrobe for some warmer pieces and break out your stash of sweaters... for you and your toaster.
That's right. I said sweater for your toaster.I'm not sure how I feel about this honestly.
I'm a fan of showing off your fancy Dualit Four Slice Toaster and making a statement on your countertop, but not necessarily smothering it in pink wool knitwear...
But, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe some of the best two slice stainless steel toasters get chilly?
Who says they don't also feel the draft that's coming in that window next to the sink? Never thought about it.
I wonder if there are sweaters in the fall fashion magazines that match the color of the toaster on your counter. What if you have a cobalt blue toaster? Would it really want to be seen wearing a pink sweater? There are all kinds of considerations to take into account when doning a new outfit on your favorite small appliance toaster.
What about adding a belt for embellishment? Start a new trend with your toaster sweater... why not?
