forever favorites [kitchen edition]

this is one of my favorite topics because i get so much use out of these things...kitchen tools.

i cook almost every day and bake usually once a week, so it's important to me to have good kitchen tools and gadgets around. here are some of my must-haves:

oster myblend 20-oz personal blender: we have green smoothies for breakfast almost every weekday now and this little blender is what i use to make them. it's small, which i really like since it sits on the countertop, and it's kinda cute. it's also really powerful for being so small...i just throw in all of the ingredients, shake em up one good time, and push down. voila!

cuisinart griddler: we got this griddler as a wedding present, and i honestly didn't know how much use i would get out of it. i have been pleasantly surprised at how often i use it. it has reversible plates that are flat on one side and have grill marks on the other. i use it all the time for making pancakes and grilling up meat that has to be cooked before i use it in a dish.

kitchenaid stand mixer: i don't think i have to explain much why i love this thing. if i didn't have it, i doubt i would bake half as much as i do. it makes clean-up so much easier and you don't have to do anything! just stand back and watch the magic happen. i also love how there's always a pretty pop of color and shiny steel in the corner of the kitchen.

furi rachael ray gusto grip 3-knife set: these 3 knives are the only ones i need in the kitchen. the large santoku knife is amazing, and i use it at least once a day. i really like the case they come in too; it keeps me from stabbing myself when i reach in the drawer to get them.

this post makes me want to go home and start cooking!
