It's That Meme Again
From everyone, though I think 
oursin started it.
Bold the ones you have and use at least once a year, italicize the ones you have and don't use, strike through the ones you have had but got rid of. And (my suggestion) add any items that you have that aren't on the list:
I wonder how many pasta machines, breadmakers, juicers, blenders, deep fat fryers, egg boilers, melon ballers, sandwich makers, pastry brushes, cheese knives, electric woks, miniature salad spinners, griddle pans, jam funnels, meat thermometers, filleting knives, egg poachers, cake stands, garlic crushers (nowadays I use the side of a broad bladed knife), martini glasses (not quite sure what is meant by this, but cocktail glasses), tea strainers, bamboo steamers, pizza stones, coffee grinders, milk frothers , piping bags, banana stands, fluted pastry wheels, tagine dishes, conical strainers, rice cookers, steam cookers, pressure cookers, slow cookers, spaetzle maker (what on earth are they?) s, cookie presses (ditto), gravy strainers, double boilers (bains marie), sukiyaki stoves, ice cream makers, fondue sets, healthy-grills, home smokers (don't get on well with smoked food apart from kippers and mackerel), tempura sets, tortilla presses, electric whisks (actually the same gadget as the blender; over 20 years old and still going strong), potato ricers, pea servers languish dustily at the back of the nation's cupboards.
