Celebrating Toasting in a Glowing and Shining Way

Engadget (www.engadget.com) had a link today to the toaster equivalent of a concept car. The bread is enclosed in glass and can be viewed while toasting.

That's long overdue.

What I really like, though, is the product description on the company's web page.
A toaster made of glass, which celebrates toasting in a glowing and shining way that makes us look forward to enjoy a fresh piece of toast. At work, he shows himself and at the same time he explains how he works. He neither hides the bread, nor its preparation. In this way it is possible to receive him as an idyllic little light. He stages the bread and the way it gets toasted, which is accompanied by warm light and a tempting aroma.

I am not ashamed to say that I have yearned to celebrate toasting in a glowing and shining way.

I noticed that this toaster is apparently male. I took the liberty of writing the text for the female version:
A toaster made of glass, which celebrates toasting but with some anxiety. At work, she shows herself and will explain how she works. This explanation cannot be stopped or shortened. She does not hide the bread, nor its preparations, but will question you about the quality of the toast. You must only answer that the toast is excellent. She stages the bread and the way it gets toasted, and she will ask you whether she, the toaster, has gained weight. Answer in an idyllic and warm manner, or the toaster will stop working entirely.
