Happy Birthday, Martha! Have Some Useless Kitchen Tools

*Yes, I realize I'm the only person in the world who finds hyphenation-based humor funny.
Heart-Shaped Egg Poacher ($9)
OK: The idea behind this seems harmless enough. It's your significant other's birthday, and you want to make him/her breakfast in bed. What could be cuter than poached eggs in the shape of hearts? But there doesn't seem to be a lot of replay value. The reaction will likely devolve from "Awwww" to "Oh, those heart-shaped eggs again!" to "Oh, those heart-shaped eggs. Again." to "I don't want any fucking eggs. You shouldn't have ogled the babysitter like that." I might reconsider if this was the part of a set with other molds.
