Are you a girl that has it all, but needs much, much more?  Is your kitchen a vast amount of empty space?  Are your cupboards begging to be of use?  If so, you may consider adding a few Unitasker items to your gift registry.

While steaming your asparagus in a normal, multiuse steamer, do you often sit and wonder: “There HAS to be a better way?” Well, there is. For a little under $50, you can own this lovely Asparagus Steamer. It Steams! Asparagus! Say hello to this Unitasker Item:

Do you find yourself constantly having to wait in line to use your microwave? Are you just SICK of having to trek all the way to the kitchen to warm up food? Well, now you can microwave anything, anywhere, with the Iwavecube Personal Microwave. Complete with a carry-anywhere handle, you can keep this 12 pound beauty by your side at all times. Plug it in anywhere: in your bedroom, next to your built-in microwave, or even, on the ledge of your bathtub.

Do you find yourself missing out on the party because you’re stuck at the wetbar, making drinks all night long? Do you notice yourself becoming incredibly fatigued while shaking martinis? You’re not alone. The fab folks over at Waring Pro have introduced their infinitely handy Electric Martini Shaker. For the low retail price of $100, you can kiss those days of cold, frozen fingers goodbye. Just measure the correct amount of alcohol, add crushed ice, make sure the martini shaker lid is on tight, carefully position the shaker into the electric shaker housing, plug in the device, select which speed you’d like the martini shaken at, push the button, let the machine go, make sure you wait until the machine is completely spun down, take the shaker out of the housing, and Voila! As simple as that. Taste the evenness of an electrically-shaken Martini today!

And, finally, kiss using a knife to slice off a pat of butter goodbye. Throw those ridiculous butter knives away, because now you can have perfectly even pats of butter with this incredibly useful Butter Cutter. Oh… wait. Pull those butter knives back out of the trash. You’re still going to need them to actually spread your butter onto your bread. But long gone are the days of hideous, uneven pats of butter. And at $15, they’re a steal at twice the price.

I do admit to having a few Unitasker items laying around my kitchen. The most useful is my Grapefruit Knife (since a retired item) from The Pampered Chef. It cuts your grapefruit slicing time in a quarter, and spares you from getting squirted in the eye! I do admit to using it less than once a month however, but oh man, when I do… what a great time saver
