picker-upper
Something providing revival
A picker-upper is something or someone that lifts spirits or restores energy: I need a picker-upper—let's get coffee.
The term plays on the phrase "pick me up," treating it as if it were a verb that could take the agent suffix -er.
Less commonly, a picker-upper is a tool for grabbing objects without bending down.
