Known for its collection of eclectic wares, SkyMall Magazine can always be counted on to alleviate in-flight jitters. As we flipped through its pages, however, we realized that some items aren't purely silly.
Jump down for a roundup of SkyMall goodies that put function over farce (even though one still makes us laugh and laugh)...














I have seen the brownie pan before but forget the site I saw it on. It's brilliant and it's definately a must have. My family thanks you!

Target has an instant pendant. I think it was between $30 and $40. I bought it when I removed the popcorn from my kitchen ceiling and wound up with a jagged edge around a can light. The pendant worked perfectly!

If you get a chance take look at this skymall parody. I glanced through it at Books Inc. in the Castro. And laughed so hard my latte came out of my nose....more than once. And I am not someone quick to laugh out loud.

My mother-in-law brings me the skymall with every visit, I love it.
I swallowed my coffee at the dining set picture. If I hadn't the "Pet Observation Dome" would have made me spray it. That is hi-larious.

I just imagine the dog on the other side biting the observation dome.

on a recent flight from Seattle back home to NYC, I saw this in the skymall catalog.
sew a new cover in a dark neutral fabric that matches my mid-century couch and chair texturally, maybe add some piping, and stick it under a window somewhere.
perfect house guest solution in a tiny apartment.

oh and by somewhere, I meant not in my tiny and vintage filled living room.
the office maybe. even in the bedroom. I could always use something new to pile laundry on.

I think the brownie pan inventor won some sort of contest a while back. Glad to hear it's being manufactured now. But I'm weird, I guess...I only like "middle" brownies, not the edges.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who secretly loves SkyMall.

I'm all about the middle of the brownie pan too... the edges do nothing for me. Now if only someone would come up with an edgeless brownie pan...
