I also love my mini-spatula. It is great for cookies! I also purchased the thing that holds the onions and whatever else and never use it. Patty
I just want you to know, funny thing. I started working on my bottom kitchen cabinets yesterday, and was already sifting thru the drawers since I had to take the drawers out!!! LOL As for fave? All of it. I have a love afair, addiction, call it what you will- with my kitchen gazmos & gidgets!
I forgot to say that I refuse to let customers order the Hold and Slice...lol. I have never met anyone who has it who actually finds it useful.
Funny thing is---I love the PC little brown square plastic cleaner thingies! What ARE those called? I forget. But my whole family uses them for all sorts of things! They're great! You can't beat the price for such a handy little tool! I didn't see when this was started. I can't do any more cleaning until Sunday. ARE WE GETTING A NEW CHALLENGE FOR NEXT WEEK? If so, I'll take the challenge for that one---Whatever it is, I'm sure!!!
RUBBER SCRAPERS!!! Can't have enough of them! They also work great on my caste iron skillets! I keep a few in my camper. Does anyone have that PC thing that you use to scoop up onions and stuff after you cut them? It took me forever to get in the habbit of using it, but now I do all the time. It's great for cleaning up all the flour left on my counter after I knead bread or roll out pie dough!
I love the scrappers for scrapping up candle wax. They never scratch anything I use them on. I also use one for the chickens' water bowl. They are so sturdy but gentle at the same time. Okay! Perhaps the scrapper is my favorite tool after all. Patty
I'll start a new challenge on Monday.--- and Im not the flylady (if you like those tasks check out that website) I like easier tasks. I had a few of those scrapers that I got in a swap but then I lost them. I loved them too.
Nylon Pan Scrapers, and they are $1.75 for three. Or you get one free with every Stoneware purchase. The Handy Scraper is the other item mentioned (for scooping up the onions). I use two so I don't get any mess on my hands. I also keep one in my shower (labeled in sharpie). They are squeegees and work wonderfully as such.
I love my baking stone from PC!! I have the PC cookbook and I've only made on thing out of it. It was the Chicken Holiday Wreath. I make that every Christmas Eve for dh and I after the kids go to bed.
Which cookbook, monkeymamma? There are several chicken wreaths in a few of the cookbooks. I love wreaths and braids. They are so simple and seem so glamorous.
Guess what I just ordered the other day? It's a plastic thing to remove braids and pizza and all that stuff off of a stone! I've got more stones than I know what to do with!!! Three pizza stones (one from a garage sale and two given to me!), deep dish baker with lid, rectangular baker with lid, bar pan (given by a friend), two loaf pans which are the only ones I bake bread in, mini-par pan (which I keep forgetting I have), and the pie plate (given to me by my sil, but I have a deep-dish Longenberger pie plate that was a wedding present, and I use it almost exclusively for home-made pies). I want to buy me a square baker.
My favorite kitchen tool is probably my food processor. Hubby just bought me the kitchen aid one because my other one broke. I love it My least favorite has to be my knives. they don't cut, they squish!
Lol.. if I listed all of my stones I would have one monster post . I had 14 of them before I ever even started selling PC...lol. The one I use more than anything, though, is my rectangle stone (the flat one). It's such a beautiful dark caramel color from all the use.
Cheese grater! I have a PC one, too, and never use it! It gums up too much! (The crank kind. I also have a hand-held one that I use a lot!)
If you are trying to grate softer cheeses (cheddar, mozzarella, etc) you can cut down on the "gum up" by freezing the cheese for an hour beforehand.
