got myself one of these baby’s for Christmas and never again will I have to make that mid-party trip to the gas station to get an overpriced, underfilled bag of ice that I drop and rip open on the way out of the trunk and spill half the ice in the driveway.

Magic Chef – Counter Top Ice Maker . the thing makes no more noise than a compact fridge and fits neatly under my blackjack table . yet it can spit out a tray of ice every 7-8 minutes from the moment you turn it on.
the beast kept up with my new years party of 10 people with no problem. never had to wait for a cube.

there’s a lot of moving parts in there, and i’m sure it will die approx. 15 seconds after the 1 year warranty runs out, but i’m going to use the heck out of it until then (sorry for the coarse language there, i’m just THAT excited).

next on the list: running water.
dare to dream.
