Lenox Butterfly Meadow Fruit Bowls, Set of 4

from: Lenox


I love everything about this Lenox pattern, the color is a soft white which actually matches my regular dishes,Mikasa Antique White. Since my dishes are very plain I like to cheer up the table with Lenox Butterfly and they coordinate very well; for me all Butterflys would be too much, I like to keep things simple. The Lenox Butterfly are sturdy yet elegant, we use them every day.I use these fruit bowls for just that, serving applesauce and fruit.Lenox Butterfly Meadow Fine Porcelain Rice BowlLenox Butterfly Meadow 7-Piece Pasta/Salad SetLenox Butterfly Meadow 8-Piece Tea Set, Service for 2Lenox Butterfly Meadow Bone Porcelain Party PlateLenox Butterfly Meadow Bone Porcelain Fruit BowlLenox Butterfly Meadow Bone Porcelain Oblong Sandwich TrayLenox ...

Norpro Mini Cheesecake Pan

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Norpro

November 08, 2004
I love cheesecakes but they can be sort of heavy and intimidating, especially these days when everyone seems to be dieting. And when you slice them, they can get very messy looking.

I bought two of these cheesecake pans and they solve the above problems! You end up with a perfect neat serving amount and the petite rounds make the cheesecake very appealing and not heavy-seeming at all. They only take 15 minutes to bake (l turned off the oven and left them in for an extra five) and release easily. Now I'm casting about for what else I can bake in these pans because people do like the individual serving size and the cute shape. Good product.

Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron 8-Inch Skillet

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Lodge Logic


I hated my mother's cast iron skillet, it was so big and heavy, but she had to feed a family of nine. Now I am getting reaquainted with cast iron, and wish I hadn't stayed away so long. The 8" is perfect for me, not so much heavy, as solid. Heats pretty quick, clean up and care is simple. I have left teflon on the burner before and am not surprized that the horrid smell is also toxic. I'd rather have the added iron in my diet instead of teflon or alluminum. It's easy to see why Lodge has stood the test of time, quality and affordability together are hard to find! Quick shipping too! Two forks up!

Bialetti Moka Express 3-Cup Stovetop Percolator

Since I'm Italian I can claim a good experience in moka coffee.
There's nothing wrong with this one, you cannot expect the same quality as espresso. Using good coffee beans, well ground and packing it right you'll have a good coffee. Just a matter of pratice. Remember: you don't need soap to wash it, keep the fire far from the handle and change the O-ring periodically.

Emsa Perfect Beaker Measuring Beaker

from: Emsa


I don't even look for my old glass measures. I use this for liquids and dry measures such as milk, water, flour, rice, etc. Accurate and simple to use. The lid is good when you need to store in the fridge without having to worry about spills or getting out some plastic wrap. I'm probably going to buy another one later. Thanks to foodie Alton for this find.

Wusthof 2 Stage Knife Sharpener

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Wusthof


When our old knife sharpener didn't seem to be having much effect on our knives anymore, I ordered this sharpener based on the reviews here. What a great little sharpener! I can't believe how dull my knives had become over time with our old sharpener (amazing what you can gradually become used to). This sharpener makes slicing and chopping a breeze again. It's very easy to use and takes up little space in the kitchen. I thought I'd have to buy a big expensive sharpener or take my knives in to a professional to get sharp edges like this again. What a delightfully effective and economical surprise.

Norpro Bread Slicer with Crumb Catcher

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Norpro


I started to make bread again in my bread maker. However it seems like I was not able to get an even slice for toasting. This slicer helps keep the knife evenly spaced for each slice. I had a little trouble keeping the sides together so the end plate would not fall out, but finally got the system going. Now I need to purchase a good sharp bread slicing knife to make my life perfect.

Just remember these are flavored coffees for a single use coffee machine. This can not be compared to a real cappuccino machine. The people in the office seem to like this flavor more than most.

FoodSaver V2840 Advanced Design

from: Food Saver

September 30, 2005
This is my first vacuum food saver and I'm delighted with it! I bought it a few months ago from Amazon. I tried to buy this at my local big chain stores but no one had this model, so I might have paid more, not sure. But had no choice.

It was easy to set up and use--even for a novice. I was sealing my first bag within minutes. I've made a few mistakes so here are some things you might want to know.
1) If you buy the rolls and make your own bags, don't cut where the cutter falls naturally--roll it back a little by hand to make a closer cut. That'll save you some money as you go, since cutting where if falls leaves a big wasted piece.
2) The machine defaults to the dry setting, but nearly everything I seal is moist, so ... Read More:

It preforms its function and its damned cute ... I also like the fact that it stands up and makes an interesting display piece in my country kitchen.
