Abstract: A stirring wand is configured for selective engagement with a mixing device. The stirring wand comprises a substantially vertical portion having an upper end and a lower end, a first tapered surface that includes a first pitch angle proximate the upper end of the substantially vertical portion and a second pitch angle proximate the lower end of the substantially vertical portion, a substantially horizontal portion having a base and a distal tip, and a second tapered surface extending from the base to the distal tip. The second tapered surface includes a third pitch angle proximate the base and a fourth pitch angle proximate the tip.

Abstract: A cooking appliance kit includes a housing having a plurality of walls defining a heating cavity. A cooking vessel is configured to be inserted into the heating cavity. The cooking vessel includes a first rounded end, a second rounded end, and an intermediate necked portion that defines first and second wells that at least partially intersect. First and second distinct heater plates are disposed in the first and second wells, respectively. First and second drive arms are removable coupled to the housing in an operable communication with the drive system. The first drive arm includes a flipping wand and the second drive arm includes a stirring wand.

Abstract: A hand-worn debris removal device for cleaning fabric, upholstery, carpet, and other textiles comprises a pocket having a longitudinal axis, a first debris collecting element having unidirectional fibers having a first directional orientation, a second debris collecting element having unidirectional fibers having a second directional orientation opposite the first directional orientation and a gap formed between the first and second debris collecting elements along the longitudinal axis. Movement of the device in a first direction and a second direction across a surface to be cleaned collects debris removed by the first and second debris collecting elements in the gap.
