We use one very similar, here.<BR/><BR/>Being a former Pampered Chef diva, I do have alot of fun tools, mostly the thermometer, which I love and the spatulas, which I also love. PC also has a really nice dressing mixer thingy, which has alot of fun dressings to make, right on the side. We love these also, and use them alot.<BR/><BR/>Its gorgeous here, almost 40 degrees at 9:oo! yay, blue skies. spring is coming girls!<BR/>Lisa<BR/>coastal nestSeaWorthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04935942280970143687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8032708665391176488.post-86414087108291938012008-02-21T09:24:00.000-06:002008-02-21T09:24:00.000-06:00Your new job sounds great.

Thanks for the vinaigrette recipe - I usually wing it and do not have a good success rate with that method. I hate silicone spatulas (they *stick to plastic bowls) except for making omelets but I love all the rest of your picks. I couldn't live without my chef's knife (or my santoku, now that I'm used to it). I just got a pepper mill at Ikea that has a glass jar on the *bottom, so you don't end up with pepper-mess on the counter all the time.Thirkellgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17686424435086254617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8032708665391176488.post-20298038510228522152008-02-21T06:33:00.000-06:002008-02-21T06:33:00.000-06:00So you are a food stylist? looks like a great plac...So you are a food stylist? looks like a great place to work...they look like one big family sitting around that table...yay! for you!the tattered nesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766770763063331585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8032708665391176488.post-32159840541534214122008-02-21T01:51:00.000-06:002008-02-21T01:51:00.000-06:00Yea!

That stuff does something to my brain that even chocolate can't match. That hummus makes my top 5 list of things I miss about MN. <BR/><BR/>I, too, crave high-end cookware, but only if I can get a deal. My proudest moment in kitchen bargain acquisitions was getting my 8" Wusthof santoku knife for $19.99 at Marshalls. I was so giddy, I hardly slept that night.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746457722630081985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8032708665391176488.post-33347867524863839892008-02-20T22:34:00.000-06:002008-02-20T22:34:00.000-06:00I make almost that exact same dressing and we have...I make almost that exact same dressing and we have it in our fridge most of the time. I generally make it with balsamic and garlic and the best part? Flax seed oil. How healthy is that! If you find Barlean's flax oil - it's made in my town. BTW.<BR/><BR/>Also, BTW (I'm so blog lingo saavy) I use the Pampered Chef salad dressing thingy. It doesn't look half as cool as your little glass containers but it has a pour spout and mixer whisk thing (I'm so technical too). I love it.Cutzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11815741632369910907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8032708665391176488.post-87290506525268584162008-02-20T21:03:00.000-06:002008-02-20T21:03:00.000-06:00You do know that every party has a pothead.

The name is scary to me... but I might have to try it. <BR/><BR/>Also I would agree that a good kitchen knife is essential. I am a sucker for high end cookware... stuff a girl can dream about.<BR/><BR/>Congrats on your new job.. its sounds fun!! Are you a good flyer?

I could cook all day and I swear that I look like I eat all day long too. I don't have a flat whisk, but I may have to buy one. I swear by my 8" santuko knife. I crave a set of really good knives!!
