"deals" news and stories

Via the Cooking for Engineers Deals Blog comes this list of kitchen items on sale at Amazon.com. For those not familiar with CfE, the main site is definitely worth a look, if only for the unique recipe layouts. The flowchart-like format is a little odd at first, but after you recognize how the steps progress, it becomes a pretty useful way to get a handle on the basic procedure of a dish—shepherd’s pie, for instance. Also usesful is a built-in unit converter in the top right sidebar.
 
As for the deals on Amazon, some of the more interesting offerings—to me, at least—are the Lelo 4070  Gelato Junior and the Calphalon saucepan for 13 bucks.
