I Love gadgets. I can spend hours in William and Sanoma, or Crate and Barrel,etc. But I love gadgets. I have to say that I love my Tupperware Potato Peeler the best. I have had 100 peelers but this one is the best I have ever seen. I use it 2-3 times a week and it's just as sharp now as it was 4 years ago when I bought it.
I Love my Kitchen aid Food Processor too, it sits out on my counter and I use it a lot ! I hate chopping and grating, I am forever grating my fingers, LOL.
So what gadget makes your kitchen task a little more fun or easier?

"Sigh"....Everyone is mentioning their fancy gadgets (and yes, I'm jealous. LOL). But mine is very very simple. I cannot live without my little electric can opener. I absolutely hate using the manual ones because I always get a cramp in my hand.

Kat- that is a given! I do't blame ya. We have one of the manual ones in the motorhome and I hate it!. I am forever getting the can half open and then tilting it wrong and spilling it! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr so frustrating.
SO yes let's hear it for the Electric can Openers!!!
Good one...

I LOVE the tupperware potatoe peeler. It's the best. Mine is getting old and I will have to order a new one soon. I also like some of the stuff from pampered chef. They have one thing (don't remember the name) used to open the plastic on boxes - love it. It has a magnet so you just stick it on the fridge and it's there when you need it.

Must I just pick one ? :)
Lets see.......something I use every single day are my Cutco Knives. Far from cheap, but GREAT knives, I recommend them if you can afford them.
I also love my vegetable steamer, my pampered chef measuring cups, my stainless steel measuring spoons, my pampered chef mix and stir pitcher.... oh wait....ONE gadget LOL

I am so in love with my Apple Peeler Corer Slicer from Pampered Chef. What a blessing that is when all the apples are picked and I have to freeze them.
I also love my Cuisinart Stick Blender it is amazing. It has an attachment and small cup that even turns it into a mini food processor.
Those are my 2 favorites.

Oh Yeah!!! I have that too! That is a fantastic gadget! I LOVE Pampered Chef, I could own 2 of everything they make.
I will have to get that out, I just bought some great FUJI apples..
Thanks for reminding me. I need a gadget closet... not a drawer... it's just not working for me.

Oh Yummy- that's gotta make your day!. Got any Smoothie recipes to share?
My hubby bought me a "Smoothie maker" 2 Christmas's ago and I admit I have not even taken it out of the box! Maybe I need to learn a couple of recipes and do that for this summer? I am sure they are wonderful, I lov e Jama Juice, and Juice it up etc. Some "Smoothie Chain" places. So maybe I need to give it a try. Thanks for the idea.

My bottle and top opener. It saves me from trying to open them in a door (If anyone know what I mean by that) LOL Nearly forgot my electric can opener.
