Had a lovely night and need a little snack before bed. The popcorn maker makes me perfect popcorn everytime no jhudgemnt no questions asked. I live in an otherwise-gizmo-free household, but I do genuinely use this things twice a week on average. What gizmo are you not ashamed of?

I also got an immersion blender for $20 a week ago and used it once to make squash soup. Perhaps that isa second gizmo... It's gotten more use than my microave in the same timespan...

Everyone’s already said it, but rice cooker.

I don’t have to even put much thought into making rice, and just season it how you want and you get an easy comfort food whenever.

(True science fact: put in a quarter cup of rice vinegar and a teaspoon of sugar for every cup of short grain white rice to get sushi rice. Then just add in crispy tofu and stir-fried vegetables and you get what is objectively the best bulking meal possible.)
