So we need a new pepper grinder (or for you more cultural folks out there, a peppermill). Apparently dropping your old pepper grinder repeatedly on the floor will only get you so far. I love fresh pepper and actually put a ton on before I even taste my food. Yeah, bad habit I know. So I've been suffering for the past few weeks as our grinder is "in a better place" now. I still need to buy a nice salt/pepper set I guess, but I just came across the coolest pepper grinder ever and had to buy it before it sold out.

Feast your eyes on the Star Wars R2-D2 Peppermill from ThinkGeek. Yep, you just twist the little guy's head and out comes your freshly ground pepper (peppercorns not included of course). I swear, Japan has the coolest stuff on the planet.
