MAKE CAKE, NOT WAR For the cook who wants to make a statement at the dinner table, this 9-inch silicone bake pan (which can also serve as a gelatin or ice mold) definitely fits the political moment. Not surprisingly, it comes with a recipe for a tie-dye cake.

STICK TO YOUR FRIDGE Finally, the Magnetic Poetry people have a box of food words so we can write a sonnet or haiku on the refrigerator. Read my magnets: I am hungry. Feed me.
