The 'ole silicone whisk and the collapsible calendar. How are these two seemingly unrelated kitchen tools similar? The silicone whisk doesn't rust and get gooey where the tines splay from the handle; the other is useful and saves space. And I expect neither hurts as badly when hurled by a surly cook, or mother.
Now, I don't cook on non-stick cookware except at friend's homes, but sometimes Teflon is necessary. Take care not to scrape and scratch the surface of the pans and you don't have to worry too much about Teflon-related health issues. There are a good set of such whisks here, and I saw some at wallyworld...take your pick.
This collapsible colander is multi-use. These colanders from Chef'n save space and don't fall out of the cupboard when you're trying to get a baking sheet out. They're also great for egg tosses in the backyard.

What does scratching the surface have to do with teflon related health issues? My understanding is the health issue has to do a chemical released when the pan is heated past 400 F.
