I'll fess up...I bought the "Peaceful Progression Wake up Clock" - http://www.hammacher.com/Product/70460 - I used to live in a basement apartment (where the windows were ground level, barely covered by some bushes), so it was always dark down there. I wake up with the sun usually & this was a great way to wake up.

It was very peaceful and a slow wake versus the jolt of an alarm scaring me awake.

When I moved out of that apartment, I gave it to the girl I was living with at the time. I don't know if she still uses it or not, but I got my money's worth (it was $49.95 when I bought it - looks like it's now $69.95).

When I bought it, I also got "Henri" the wine stand for a friend of mine (she paid for it, I just placed the order) - I made sure to buy it using the inflight order form that NW used to have as you got bonus miles for purchases over $150 or something at the time.

I sorta miss that clock!

The brownie pan is pretty genius - I've been looking for a cheaper version online for my sister, but haven't been looking that hard - she makes really good brownies & I figure if I buy the pan, she'll make them for me! Love the edges!
