Watermelon Cooler?
How many times have you been staring at that perfect watermelon and thought to yourself "if only there was an easier way to transport this sucker and keep it cold". Wonder no longer, such a thing now exists. Currently, you will have to travel to Japan to purchase one of these babies, which will run you about $230. We're not sure if this is the worst way to spend $230 or kinda awesome. Hopefully one day they will be available in the states, then our picnics will be complete.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats
Rice Krispies Treats. Delicious squares of goodness that could only be made better with the addition of chocolate and peanut butter. Click here for the easier-then-you-think recipe.
