apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

When summer meals stretch into the evening and you're standing over the grill in the dusk, poking around to see if your burgers are still pink inside, then you may want a pair of these: Flashlight Grill Tongs ($50 from Red Envelope). They have a tiny flashlight embedded in the handle that streams light out between the tong blades.

We can't quite decide if these are brilliant or just plain silly. You tell us - would you spend $50 on tongs, or do you light your grill some other way?
