A friend just gave me this smoothie-maker, and now every morning I throw a bunch of fruit in (those $3 Dole bags of frozen fruits are perfect), put on the blender part and whip one up. It's super-easy, doesn't take up much counter space, and is pretty quiet for a blender (which is nice for those of us who don't like intense whirring sounds before we've had our coffee). Plus, because you mix each cup individually, you can ask whoever's joining you for breakfast what their favorite fruits are and make them exactly what they want in about two seconds. If that doesn't impress them, you should immediately mumble something about being late for work and make sure you don't go home with such an ingrate ever again. ($39.99, Macy's) — Ada Calhoun
