"The Norpro Egg Rite Egg Timer is nothing new, but a recent piece on Apartment Therapy brought it to light and I couldn't resist it's simple style and singular function. Drop the Egg Rite into your pot of eggs and watch as the color of the egg changes - right before your very eyes, no less - to obscure the words 'soft', 'medium', and eventually 'hard', indicating how done your eggs are. If you're the type who boils eggs on a daily basis, the $7.00 timer's surely for you."
